UP to fast track setting up of 15 industrial zones for MSMEs across 11 districts
Lucknow: As part of its goal to make UP a one trillion-dollar economy, the Uttar Pradesh govt has decided to establish 15 MSME-focused industrial zones across 11 districts. Sharing details, officials said: "The draft blueprint prepared by the MSME department outlines that a total of 764.31 acres will be developed for these industrial estates. Across these estates, 872 industrial plots will be available for investors to set up their enterprises. This will not only strengthen the MSME sector in the state but also play a vital role in achieving the one trillion-dollar economy target." The department's roadmap includes a state-wide campaign to create a substantial land bank. As part of this, the process of making land available for the 15 MSME estates in the 11 districts is underway. They further said that the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) is also working on a major plan to boost the MSME sector and has reserved 500 acres of land for setting up MSME units in its upcoming development zones. Additionally, the Greater Noida-based Flatted Factory Complex, to be developed by YEIDA in Sector 28 of Gautam Buddha Nagar at a cost of Rs 125 crore, will offer state-of-the-art, multi-storey factory spaces. The construction process is expected to begin soon, with the master plan and other technical reports currently in progress. The complex, to spread over 38,665 square meters, will be completed within 24 months, providing modern, well-equipped units for MSME enterprises. This multi-pronged strategy by the Yogi govt is designed to make Uttar Pradesh a manufacturing powerhouse, especially by empowering its MSME backbone with world-class infrastructure and investor-friendly policies.
