How to Apply for UP Dev Charges Exemption Scheme: 75% Relief for Dry Ports

Applications are handled by the state authority responsible for implementing the New UP Warehousing & Logistics Policy 2022. This is not a competitive round with shortlisting or pitches — the test is eligibility and compliance.

• The authority confirms that the project falls within one of the qualifying dry port categories (ICD, CFS or AFS) and matches the criteria set out in the policy.
• The documentation submitted with the application is reviewed for completeness and adherence to the prescribed format.
• Submitted financial projections and cost estimates are checked for accuracy.
• Once evaluation succeeds and approval is given, the 75% exemption is granted — usually reflected in the final charge calculation or issued as a formal order by the competent authority.
