Rs 125 crore factory complex near medical device park to boost startups
Noida: Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) has launched a tender for a flatted factory complex spanning 38,665 sqm near its 350-acre medical device park in Sector 28. The Rs 125-crore complex is to be completed within 24 months and is expected to boost the entry of MSMEs and startups in the area. The complex, proposed to be a five-storey industrial space offering plug-and-play units with built-in utilities and shared amenities, like cafeterias, exhibition halls, parking space, retail shops and lifts, will offer 252 office units on a rental basis to startups to lower entry barriers. YEIDA CEO Arun Veer Singh said the complex is among the 11 factory complexes proposed off the Yamuna Expressway. "Flatted factory complexes support the state's vision of becoming a leading industrial hub with a focus on MSMEs and startups. Around 3,000 affordable and ready-to-use industrial spaces are currently in the pipeline, and at least 75% of these units will be reserved for MSMEs and 25% for startups," he said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo TOI earlier reported that a factory complex is to come up in Sector 10 to support the 206-acre electronics manufacturing cluster (EMC) with 228 units, while two large plots—20,234 sqm and 44,515 sqm—have also been earmarked for flatted factories in the YEIDA areas. Each of these complexes is proposed to be tailored for proposed industrial parks like medical device, semiconductor, IT, apparel and toy. Noida Entrepreneurs Association (NEA) vice president Sudhir Shrivastava told TOI that factory complexes are needed across Noida, Greater Noida and Yamuna authority areas as the govt positions the region as India's next manufacturing hotspot. "Setting up a factory involves significant financial investment, besides approvals from multiple departments such as the Authority, power, fire and others, which often deters entrepreneurs. A factory complex addresses these challenges, as the Authority takes care of the development and necessary clearances. This allows micro and small enterprises, typically employing between 5 to 20 people, to rent space and start operations with ease," he said. NEA has 3,600 registered members in the city, dealing in different businesses. While Noida does not have any designated factory complexes, the concept has found standing in the city, too. With high land and rental costs, several small-scale industries such as furniture, handicrafts, and packaging currently operate out of smaller office buildings in sectors 6, 9, and 10, while some factories operate out of UPSIDA industrial area in Surajpur.
