The state’s industrial database shows 28,303 operational factories, while fresh factory registrations fell by 35% in 2026.
The latest industrial statistics released for Haryana indicate that the state currently hosts 28,303 registered factories. This figure reflects the cumulative count of operational manufacturing units across sectors such as textiles, chemicals, and engineering.
In contrast, the number of new factory registrations recorded for the fiscal year 2026 dropped sharply, registering a 35% decline compared with the previous year. The slowdown points to a reduced pace of fresh industrial set‑ups during the period.
State officials have noted the trend and said they are monitoring the situation closely, as a sustained dip could affect employment generation and the state’s contribution to the national manufacturing output. Analysts suggest that factors such as tighter credit conditions, policy adjustments, or shifts in market demand may be influencing the slowdown, though no definitive cause has been identified yet.
