Gujarat secured the top position among India's large states in the first Investment Friendliness Index (IFI) released by NITI Aayog, achieving a score of 56.6 out of 100. The state performed exceptionally well due to its strong infrastructure, efficient ports, and reliable power supply, making it an attractive destination for investments. The index evaluates states and Union Territories across eight pillars, including infrastructure, business climate, regulatory ease, and government policy. It is intended to help governments identify strengths and areas for improvement to create a more investment-friendly environment and support economic growth across the country.
