“The IKGS attracted 424 investment projects worth Rs 17.77 billion. Of these, over 20 per cent have already begun construction,” the minister noted. Upon completion, these 86 projects are expected to generate approximately 40,439 jobs. While 268 projects have secured land, 156 are still awaiting land allotment.
