Government of Uttar Pradesh has launched ‘Nivesh Mitra’, a web based online facility for entrepreneurs desirous of setting up an enterprise in UP. Udyog Bandhu, a Govt. Agency for Investment Promotion, is acting as a nodal agency for implementation of this project.

 

Nivesh Mitra has been envisaged as a simple, user friendly, entrepreneur centric web application that enables existing & prospective investors and entrepreneurs to get online clearances/NOC’s from concerned department with ease and minimal “running around”. Now entrepreneur will not need running from pillar to post for filling and submitting various application forms manually with a number of enclosures in order to get the requisite clearances as for setting up of an industry he requires these approvals and the requisite forms may vary depending on the nature of unit to be set up, its size, location and so on. The fact that most of the times there is very little information available to get this process streamlined makes this a difficult exercise, consuming a lot of time, money and energy. Needless to say, these requirements are necessary for proper regulation and facilitation of industrial development. 

 

Nivesh Mitra acts as a seamless interface, aimed to facilitate faster and time bound issuance of various approvals needed by entrepreneur desirous of setting up of an enterprise in U.P.  It provides a hassle free and user friendly platform between existing & prospective investors and entrepreneurs and various departments to ensure faster and time bound issuance of various approvals.

Initially,  Punjab National Bank have been selected as partners in this online endeavour.

It also provides online monitoring facility for seeking the status of application within the stipulated time limits. This helps in ensuring systematic and time bound clearances with out actually having to make endless visits to different departments and not knowing what is actually happening to one’s application.  The details on “ How to use the website” can be accessed at……………….
