Compared with other states in India, where integrated manufacturing cities of this kind are being developed at 14 locations, Bihar is among the leading states working rapidly to implement this scheme on the ground, says Bihar Industries Minister Shreyasi Singh
Bihar has attracted 1,091 investment proposals worth ₹1.21 lakh crore in the past 1.5 years, according to Bihar Industries Minister Shreyasi Singh. The proposals could generate over 68,807 jobs in the state, positioning Bihar as an "important investment destination." The state's rapid industrial development is attributed to the government's focus on infrastructure, essential facilities, and investor-friendly policies.
Among other projects, the Bihar Integrated Manufacturing City Gaya Limited is being developed, which will promote large-scale manufacturing and employment generation. The project, expected to be inaugurated by Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary, encompasses an area of 1,670 acres and is set to include amenities like a Common Effluent Treatment Plant and an Integrated Control and Command Centre.
In addition to BIMCGL, the state government has been working to make 14,600 acres of new industrial land available across 28 locations in 25 districts. So far, BIADA has allotted 727.02 acres of land to 521 units, with an estimated investment of ₹18,380.25 crore and 49,167 job opportunities. The Bihar Semiconductor Policy 2026 also aims to promote advanced technology-based industries in the state, benefiting 47,075 entrepreneurs under the Chief Minister's Entrepreneur Scheme.
