The project's construction will begin within six months post the necessary statutory approvals, while the completion is expected within three years by 2023.

According to a statement by the Gujarat government, the park will have e-commerce and BTS facilities spread across 3.8 million sq ft, bonded warehouses in 900,000 sq ft, temperature and palletised facilities across 60,000 sq ft and grade-A palletised facilities in 400,000 sq ft.
