Rs 4.17 Bn Electronics Cluster Approved in Gautam Buddha Nagar

The Government of India has approved the establishment of a Rs 4.17 billion Electronics Manufacturing Cluster (EMC 2.0) in Gautam Buddha Nagar, Uttar Pradesh, with the objective of strengthening local manufacturing and fostering innovation.

The project was reviewed by Union IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw and Minister of State Jitin Prasada. Given the crucial role of the State Government in its implementation, officials have been directed to coordinate closely with the state authorities to enable faster execution.

The EMC 2.0 will be developed by the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA). Planned over 200 acres, the cluster is expected to attract investments of around Rs 25 billion.

Ashwini Vaishnaw noted that the project is expected to create world-class infrastructure and generate about 15,000 jobs. He highlighted that it aligns with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of advancing manufacturing in India and underlines the government’s commitment to job creation and building a developed nation.

The cluster will promote manufacturing across key sectors such as consumer electronics, automotive and industrial electronics, medical devices, computer hardware, and communication equipment. It will offer startups and MSMEs modern plug-and-play infrastructure and shared facilities, including standard factory sheds, power supply, water provisioning, sewage treatment, hostels, skill development centres, and health centres—helping to lower infrastructure and logistics costs.

Strategically located, the cluster benefits from excellent connectivity by road, rail, and air. It is situated along the Yamuna Expressway, Eastern Peripheral Expressway, and the upcoming Palwal–Khurja Expressway. The site is also in proximity to major transport hubs like a railway station and Jewar International Airport, and is surrounded by key industrial zones such as the Medical Device Park, MSME & Apparel Park, and the Aviation Hub.
