Agartala: Tripura has secured 33 memorandums of understanding (MoUs) in the tourism sector with proposed investments of around Rs 12,300 crore following the recently concluded Destination Tripura Business Conclave 2026, Tourism Minister Sushanta Chowdhury said on Saturday.
Speaking at a consultation meeting with prospective investors, Chowdhury said the state had been tasked with attracting Rs 15,000 crore in tourism investments and had already achieved commitments worth Rs 12,300 crore through the signed agreements.
He said the meeting was organised to facilitate discussions with investors from across the country who have expressed interest in developing tourism projects in the state.
“Investors from different parts of the country have come with their proposals. The consultation meeting has been organised for a constructive exchange of views with those willing to invest in the tourism sector,” the minister said.
Chowdhury noted that the state government signed MoUs worth nearly Rs 1.22 lakh crore across multiple sectors during the business conclave, surpassing its overall investment target of Rs 1 lakh crore.
Apart from tourism, he said the transport sector also attracted significant investment proposals, including projects for manufacturing electric vehicle motors and other EV components.
The minister, however, stressed that the signing of MoUs marked only the first stage of the investment process and said the real success would depend on timely execution of the proposed projects.
Highlighting the state’s tourism potential, Chowdhury said Tripura offers strong opportunities in spiritual, eco and adventure tourism, and the government has already begun initiatives to strengthen these segments.
He added that the foundation stone for a luxury hotel being developed in partnership with the Taj Group has already been laid, while several tourism projects are expected to become operational in the coming months.
Expressing optimism about the sector’s future, Chowdhury said the proposed investments could accelerate Tripura‘s economic growth and significantly improve the state’s profile as a tourist destination in India.
