Panjim : Chief Minister Dr. Pramod Sawant chaired the 38th Board Meeting of the Goa Investment Promotion Board (IPB) at Mahalaxmi, Altinho, Panjim.

The Board approved nine investment projects with a total investment potential of ₹733 crores, expected to generate employment opportunities for 2,319 individuals. The approved projects span key sectors, including pharmaceutical manufacturing, warehousing, machine tools manufacturing, and beverage production.
A significant decision taken during the meeting was the granting of industry status to the logistics sector in Goa. Under this new classification, the Board approved M/s Express Machines and Scaffolding Pvt. Ltd. to set up a large warehousing facility in the state.
Among the notable approvals were the expansion projects by Procter & Gamble, through its subsidiary Gillette Diversified Operations Pvt. Ltd., and Zydus Lifesciences Ltd.—two multinational corporations that have chosen Goa as their manufacturing hub over competing global locations.
