The Odisha government has approved 18 investment proposals with a combined outlay of INR 3,877 crore, aimed at generating employment for 7,565 people across 11 districts in the state. The clearances were granted by the State Level Single Window Clearance Authority (SLSWCA) at a chaired by Chief Secretary Anu Garg earlier this week in Bhubaneswar. Advertisement
The approved projects are spread across districts including Balasore, Deogarh, Ganjam, Jajpur, Jharsuguda, Keonjhar, Khurda, Koraput, Puri, Sambalpur and Sundergarh. The proposals cover a broad mix of sectors such as advanced manufacturing, green industries, infrastructure, healthcare and tourism, reflecting the state’s focus on building a diversified industrial ecosystem.
Among the key approvals, Solar Industries India Limited has proposed to establish a defence-grade explosives manufacturing facility in Deogarh with an investment of INR 210 crore. The project is expected to generate employment for approximately 910 people, contributing to the state’s industrial base in specialised manufacturing.
The tourism sector also features prominently in the latest approvals, with multiple star hotel projects cleared across districts including Sambalpur, Khurda, Keonjhar, Puri and Koraput. These developments are expected to support the expansion of hospitality infrastructure in key tourist destinations and improve the state’s capacity to accommodate domestic and international visitors.
The SLSWCA mechanism continues to play a central role in fast-tracking industrial approvals in Odisha, providing a single-window clearance system for investment proposals. The platform is designed to streamline administrative processes and facilitate timely project implementation, thereby improving ease of doing business in the state.
The mix of projects approved indicates a balanced approach towards industrial growth, combining manufacturing-led investments with service sector expansion. Green industry proposals are also part of the approved pipeline, aligning with broader sustainability objectives and the transition towards cleaner industrial practices.
Employment generation remains a key focus of the state’s investment strategy, with the approved projects expected to create over 7,500 jobs across multiple regions. The distribution of projects across districts is aimed at supporting regional development and reducing concentration of industrial activity in select urban centres.
The latest round of approvals highlights Odisha’s ongoing efforts to attract private investment and strengthen its industrial and infrastructure base. By facilitating projects across sectors and geographies, the state government is working to enhance economic activity and support long-term growth across its districts.
