Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's government issued necessary guidelines for the effective implementation of the online incentive management system developed under the Nivesh Mitra portal for incentives and concessions given in various investment promotion policies. Apart from this, it has been asked to make the online incentive management system universally accessible, technology-enabled and multidimensional without human intervention and to implement it completely.
As soon as the application form for obtaining departmental incentives and concessions is submitted through the online incentive management system process of the online application, the concerned officers of the nodal department will see the application in their log-in account. The concerned officers of all the nodal departments will be able to send the received applications to other departments for opinion.
After checking the application form by the concerned officer of the nodal department, if any shortcoming is found at any point, the entrepreneur will be sent for review after informing about those shortfalls. The entrepreneur will have to respond to the review within 15 days. If the entrepreneur does not provide the information sought in the review within 15 days, then the officer of the nodal department will be free to take further action on the application, the statement said.
After verification, the nodal department can select those applications which need to be included in the agenda note. The nodal department can send the applications to the competent level authorized committee by uploading the agenda note. After the approval of the authorized committee, the concerned department will be able to upload the copy of digitally signed LOC or signed Letter of Comfort (LOC) given against the application of the entrepreneur.
