India's Godrej Industries group announced on Monday that it has signed a pact with the government of Haryana to invest $2.09 billion in the northern state. The investment, detailed in a memorandum of understanding, is expected to generate around 40,000 jobs.

Haryana has become a significant growth driver for the Godrej Industries Group, according to Chairperson Pirojsha Godrej, who expressed the group's intention to continue investing in the region for the long term.
