The Kerala State Planning Board, formed in September 1967, operates under the Government of Kerala with the Chief Minister serving as its Chairperson; it functions as a key advisory body guiding socio‑economic development in the state. The board is responsible for formulating the state’s Five-Year and Annual Plans, preparing a comprehensive Economic Review annually, monitoring plan implementation, and promoting decentralized planning with robust public participation. Its work is carried out through specialized technical divisions (such as Agriculture, Industry and Infrastructure, Social Services, Decentralised Planning, Evaluation and IT), and it coordinates with District Planning Offices to align local-level development with state strategies.
