About this scheme
Under the Chhattisgarh Industrial Development Policy 2024-30, the Reimbursement of Clinical Trials programme extends financial support to the pharmaceutical sector. It addresses the cost burden that companies face when running clinical trials for new drugs, therapies and medical devices.
The Government of Chhattisgarh reimburses a portion of these costs directly. The intent is to draw greater pharmaceutical investment into local research and development.
The scheme forms part of a wider effort to build up pharmaceutical manufacturing in the state, generate high-skill employment, and widen Chhattisgarh's economic base while strengthening self-reliance in healthcare infrastructure. Companies operating within the state are offered a competitive advantage as the state positions itself as a centre for pharmaceutical innovation and production.
