Bhooshan said that they have launched a scheme and will give priority to industries and entrepreneurs in producing cylinders, hospital supplies, drugs, pharmaceuticals, beds, mattresses, and industrial gases.

Around 41 plots ranging between 905 sq m and 4,061.3 sq m are on offer.

The cost of the plots measuring up to 4,000 sq m is Rs 11,240 per sq m, whereas 4,000 to 8,000 sq m plots are allocated at Rs 9,685 per sq m.

In another development, the authority has even extended the dates for the allottees to get their construction maps and plans approved offline by June 30.

From next month, the applications will have to be routed by the authority's portal.
