How to Apply for UP Recruitment Assistance — ₹20,000 per Hire for New IT Units

Applications are evaluated by a committee formed by the Department of IT & Electronics, Government of Uttar Pradesh, or by a nodal agency that the state appoints under the IT and ITeS Policy 2022.

The review concentrates on three checks:

• whether the applicant genuinely qualifies as a new IT/ITeS establishment;
• the unit's fixed capital investment;
• conformity with the recruitment conditions, meaning the one-year continuous employment rule and the yearly intake of UP domicile first-job students.

Documents sought at the application stage typically include proof of incorporation, evidence of the fixed capital investment, employee records showing continuous service, and verification that new hires satisfy the domicile and first-job student criteria. Once a unit is approved, it can claim the assistance for eligible employees, and it remains bound by the recruitment and employment conditions for as long as it draws the benefit.
