Geographical Indication (GI) tags are essential for identifying and safeguarding goods with distinctive characteristics associated with geographical areas. They promote local economies, highlight cultural heritage, and aid in the preservation of traditional customs. Since there is just one GI-tagged product in Jharkhand the ‘Sohrai-Khovar painting’ this research paper focuses on the state of GI tags in Jharkhand. Even with its abundant natural and cultural diversity, Jharkhand struggles to get GI recognition for its other distinctive products, such as Mandar and Deoghar Peda. The study investigates the advantages of GI tags, Jharkhand's opportunities, the causes of the low level of recognition, and possible GI-eligible products. Additionally, it offers ways to get beyond these obstacles and emphasises how crucial it is to use GI tags to support the state's cultural and economic development.
