Delhi Identifies 1,148 Acres of Greenfield Land to Boost Tech Industries

Delhi is preparing a New Industrial Policy for 2026–36 to attract clean, technology-driven and knowledge-based businesses and create quality jobs. The government has identified about 1,148 acres of greenfield industrial land—mainly in Kanjhawala, with additional sites in Ranikhera and Baprola—and is considering redeveloping the Jhandewalan Flatted Factory Complex. Officials say Delhi’s skilled workforce, transport links, airport access and established services sector could help attract investment, including Global Capability Centres. The policy is intended to prioritize high-value industries with a lower environmental footprint, while the government also develops startup, ease-of-doing-business and export policies.
The identified land comprises about 920 acres in Kanjhawala, 147 acres in Ranikhera and 81 acres in Baprola.
The government is considering redeveloping the eight-acre Jhandewalan Flatted Factory Complex as modern industrial and commercial space.
Industries Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa said the policy would draw on best practices from other states and industrial destinations, and that the government was open to industry ideas, partnerships and global best practices.
The stakeholder meeting included NASSCOM representatives, senior Industries Department officials and DSIDC Managing Director Nazuk Kumar.
