Chennai-Bangalore Industrial Development Corridor


Chennai-Bangalore Industrial Development Corridor

            Considering to be one of India’s biggest megaproject, the Chennai-Bangalore Industrial Development Corridor is said to increase the quality of the infrastructure area between Chennai and Bangalore. “The strategy to develop CBIC is part of the plan to achieve accelerated development, regional industry agglomeration in the states of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh and to facilitate development of a well-planned and efficient industrial base by providing smooth access to the industrial production units, decreased transportation logistics costs along with an improved delivery time and reduction in inventory cost and ensure increased private investments in manufacturing and industrial activity in the three states” (DIPP).
            As expected, this project would give a lot of financial benefits to every stakeholder involved. And this project spreads its economic influence not just over the two targeted states. The Kerala Chief Minister had stated that the project would give direct employment to about 10,000 people and can also attract investment of Rs 10,000 crore from private agencies.
