Make in India: Global Promotion of National Industrial Corridor Development Corporation Limited! (NICDC) Industrial Corridor Projects
India’s industrial landscape is undergoing a rapid transformation as we work towards the vision of Viksit Bharat @2047 and Atmanirbhar Bharat. At the heart of this transformation is National Industrial Corridor Development Programme (NICDP)- India’s most ambitious infrastructure programme aiming to develop futuristic industrial cities in India which can compete with the best manufacturing and investment destinations in the world.
NICDC is developing 20 Greenfield Industrial Smart Cities across 11 Industrial Corridors, designed not just as industrial parks but as integrated ecosystems with world- class Plug-n-Play infrastructure, offering ’walk to work’, single-window clearances, and multi- modal connectivity enabling faster, smarter, and sustainable industrial growth and quality living.
Under Phase 1, four operational cities spanning (3,124 ha) have already attracted over USD 20.6 billion in investment and generated employment for one hundred thousand people. Dholera in Gujarat, AURIC in Maharashtra, Greater Noida in Uttar Pradesh, and Vikram Udyogpuri in Madhya Pradesh stand as testament to India’s capability to deliver world-class industrial infrastructure at scale. Currently, over 1,329 acres of industrial land and 2,090 acres of mixed-use land are immediately available across our four developed cities.
Two more cities, including Krishnapatnam (812 ha) in Andhra Pradesh and Tumakuru (697 ha) in Karnataka, are nearing completion. Further, Integrated Multi Modal Logistics Hub (IMLH) (358 ha) in Nangal Chaudhary, Haryana and India’s largest Multi Modal Logistics Hub (MMLH) (333 ha) in Dadri, Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh are under implementation to cater to the industrial cities and for smoother movement of people and goods.
Owing to the success of these projects, Govt. of India has approved and sanctioned 12 more projects during the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) meeting chaired by Hon’ble Prime Minister in August 2024. These nodes spanning approx. 10,512 ha cover 10 states & 6 industrial corridors forming a necklace of smart cities along the Golden Quadrilateral.
NICDC would be glad to facilitate the development of a country-specific enclave within our industrial cities to provide a familiar and investor-friendly environment. This dedicated zone will help create a conducive ecosystem for businesses from your country, encouraging greater participation and long-term investment. The world is looking at India as a reliable and potential investment destination and NICDC can facilitate a future-ready ecosystem for sustainable growth of businesses.
