Karnataka Approves 147 Industrial Projects Worth Rs 6,825.93 Crore

The single-window clearances are meant to drive district-level investment and job growth but actual spending and hiring depend on land allotment, permits and financing.

Overview

  • The State Level Single Window Clearance Committee approved 147 projects totalling Rs 6,825.93 crore at its 161st meeting chaired by Industry Minister M B Patil on Monday, November 9, 2026.
  • Officials say the package is projected to create about 18,600 jobs with 36 major projects (each over Rs 50 crore) accounting for Rs 4,507.71 crore and roughly 12,074 jobs.
  • A clear regional tilt is planned: 131 of the 147 projects will be located outside Bengaluru Urban and Bengaluru Rural to push industrial growth into districts.
  • Approved projects span semiconductors, data centres, ESDM, IT/ITES parks, food processing, aerospace and general engineering, with notable approvals including Advaith Tech's Devanahalli IT park and several large units at Gowribidanur.
  • These SLSWCC approvals set a formal pipeline but require follow-up steps such as land allocation, environmental and other permits, and capital deployment before investments and jobs are realised.
