Pay for jobs, not just machines
The Haryana Enterprises and Employment Policy 2020 came into force on 1 January 2021 and closed to new units on 31 December 2025. Its employment generation subsidy rewards a plant for each Haryana resident it employs rather than for what it spends on machinery: a fixed grant per eligible employee per year, paid for ten years from commencement of production. The policy divides the state into A, B, C and D blocks by industrial development; the developed A blocks — the Gurugram belt and most of the NCR — get nothing, while the backward C and D blocks receive the largest allocations.
The video's arithmetic shows the scale: a factory in a C block employing fifty Haryana workers at salaries under ₹40,000 a month claims about ₹24 lakh a year, over ₹2 crore across the ten-year period. The grant goes to the employer, not the worker.
