Eyeing investment push, U.P. Government to open satellite investment promotion offices in five metro cities

The Uttar Pradesh government on Wednesday (October 22, 2025) said that satellite investment promotion offices will be opened in five major metropolitan cities of India, including Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai and New Delhi, with the aim of directly channeling capital investment from major industrial hubs across the country in Uttar Pradesh and connecting investors with the state’s policies and opportunities.

“‘Invest UP’ satellite investment promotion offices will now be opened in five major metropolitan cities of India such as Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai and New Delhi. The aim is to directly channel capital investment from major industrial hubs across the country to Uttar Pradesh and connect investors with the policies and opportunities of the state,” an official statement said. Invest UP is the investment promotion and facilitation agency of the state government.

UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has already approved the proposal for restructuring of ‘UP Investment’. As part of the plan, it is proposed to establish these satellite offices to give a new impetus to industrial development in the state. Under the plan, each office will have a team consisting of a General Manager, a Deputy General Manager, two Udyami Mitras, two Managers and two Office Assistants.

Each of the city’s satellite offices will focus on strategic sectors aligned with its geographic and industrial strengths; for example, the Mumbai office will focus on Financial Services, Infrastructure, FinTech and ESG funds, while the Bengaluru office will target GCCs (Global Talent Centres), Aviation, Semiconductors, Electric Vehicles and DeepTech sectors. Similarly, the Chennai office will focus on investment in Automotive, Electronics, Textiles and Hardware Manufacturing sectors; The New Delhi office will serve as the dedicated Invest UP and Asia-European Union Facilitation Office.

The government hopes this move will help strengthen communication with investors and further enhance the state’s ‘Ease of Doing Business’ image. “Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath stated that Uttar Pradesh is no longer just a consumer state but has become a preferred destination for investors. The satellite offices will act as a bridge in this direction. Through these offices, Uttar Pradesh will establish a permanent presence in the top industrial hubs of the country and create a new identity on the global investment map,” the official statement said.
