The Private Industrial Park Scheme: Setting Up Your Own Park in UP

Most businesses looking for industrial land in UP think in terms of getting a plot allotted within an existing government-developed park or township. But there’s another route worth knowing about: building your own.

What the scheme allows

UP’s Private Industrial Park Scheme allows private developers to set up and operate their own industrial parks in the state, rather than relying solely on allotment within a government-run park. In practice, this means a developer can acquire land, get it approved and notified as an industrial park under the scheme, build the necessary infrastructure, and then allot or lease plots within it to individual businesses — essentially replicating what a government industrial development authority does, but privately.

The incentives involved

To make this route attractive, the scheme comes with associated incentives for the developer, including stamp duty relief. These benefits are aimed at offsetting the cost and effort of building infrastructure that a government authority would otherwise provide, and they can meaningfully change the economics of setting up a private park versus doing it without any policy support.

Who this is actually for

This isn’t a route for a single small business looking for one plot — it’s built for developers, larger groups, or businesses with enough scale and capital to justify building and running a dedicated park. A few scenarios where it makes sense:

• A group of related businesses (for example, a supply chain cluster) wanting co-located, purpose-built infrastructure.
• A large manufacturer needing a custom-built facility with specific power, water, or effluent handling requirements that a standard government plot might not accommodate.
• A real estate or industrial development player looking to enter the industrial park business itself, allotting plots to third parties.

Private park versus government-run park

The trade-off is fairly intuitive: a government-run park gets you into existing, already-developed infrastructure faster, but with less control over layout, specifications, and timelines. A private park under this scheme takes longer to set up and requires more upfront capital and effort, but gives you far more control over how the park is designed and who else operates within it.

Is this the right route for your project?

Setting up a private industrial park is a bigger commitment than allotment in an existing government park, and it’s worth carefully weighing against simpler options before going down this path.
