KSH Infra to Develop Second Industrial Park in Tamil Nadu

14 Jul 2025 CW Team

KSH INFRA has announced plans to invest Rs 5.5 billion in a new 60-acre Grade A Industrial and Logistics Park in Tamil Nadu’s Sriperumbudur-Oragadam belt. The park, to be developed on freehold land, will offer a total built-up potential of 1.6 million sq. ft. and generate over 1,500 jobs.

The site benefits from ~600 metres of road frontage and robust connectivity, aided by the upcoming Chennai–Bangalore Expressway (NE7). Located in a region housing companies such as Hyundai, Samsung, Dell, Nokia, and Foxconn, the park will support manufacturing, electronics, and engineering units.

Strategic infrastructure developments—such as the Parandur Greenfield Airport, MMLP at Mappedu, Peripheral Ring Road, and Aerospace Park—are driving rapid industrial growth in the Chennai–Bangalore Industrial Corridor.

Construction of the new park is expected to begin by March–April 2026. KSH INFRA aims to scale up to over 10 million sq. ft. across Pune, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Chennai in the next 2–3 years.

“Our focus is on building high-quality, future-ready industrial infrastructure to support the 'Make in India' mission,” said Rohit Hegde, Managing Director, KSH INFRA.

The company’s CEO, Sundaresan Vaidyanathan, added that the expansion into South India is part of a strategic growth plan supported by deep in-house expertise and industry collaborations.

In August 2024, KSH INFRA had invested Rs 4.5 billion in a 50-acre logistics park in Hosur with 1.25 million sq. ft. of development potential.
