In the Tenth Five-year Plan (2002-07), Gujarat's Gross State Domestic Product grew by 10.2 a year. Enthused, the state has now set a growth target of 11.2 per cent a year for the Eleventh Plan (2007-12).

To accomplish this target, the state government is leaving no stone unturned in providing policy and infrastructure support to industry.

According to Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, "The state government's investor-friendly policies are helping Gujarat grow at this pace. This is reflected in the fact that there is zero labour-hour loss in the state. Gujarat is not rich in several minerals like coal. Notwithstanding this, power and steel companies are still flocking to the state."

Gujarat accounts for 15.14 per cent ($114.52 billion) of the total investments in India, highest amongst all states in India, according to the Vibrant Gujarat web site.
