Greater Noida is set to become a pivotal logistics hub in the National Capital Region with the announcement of a ₹5000 crore Multi-Modal Logistics Park (MMLP) near the upcoming Jewar Airport.
The project, a significant component of Greater Noida’s Master Plan 2041, aims to enhance regional connectivity and economic growth. The MMLP will be developed over 174 acres in Sector Kappa 2, Dadri, strategically located near the Noida International Airport in Jewar. This proximity positions the park as a critical node in India’s multimodal cargo movement network, offering seamless connectivity to both the Eastern and Western Dedicated Freight Corridors (DFC). Adjacent to a 250-acre Inland Container Depot (ICD) operated by Container Corporation of India (CONCOR), the MMLP is poised to integrate road, rail, and air transport, facilitating efficient logistics operations.
The logistics park is designed to feature state-of-the-art infrastructure, including an intermodal container terminal for road, rail, and air cargo, modern cold storage facilities with automated systems, dedicated cargo yards, and specialized terminals for bulk and break-bulk cargo. Additionally, the park will house bonded and non-bonded warehousing, freight forwarding services, and customs clearance operations. A skill development centre will also be established to train manpower for modern logistics and digital cargo management, addressing the growing need for skilled professionals in the sector. The Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority (GNIDA) has launched a land allotment scheme for the MMLP, inviting applications from logistics firms and industry players.
The plots, priced at ₹11,000 per square metre, are expected to attract significant interest from national and international logistics operators. To qualify, applicants must pledge a minimum investment of ₹1,200 crore (excluding land cost) and have at least a decade of experience in managing logistics operations, particularly ICDs or rail terminals. The development of the MMLP is supported by the Uttar Pradesh government’s Multi-Modal Logistics Park Policy 2024, which offers attractive incentives to eligible investors. The policy provides for a 30% upfront land subsidy for projects with a minimum investment of ₹1,000 crore, complete exemption from stamp duty on leased land, and waivers of development fees. A single-window clearance mechanism simplifies the approval process, ensuring efficient and transparent interactions with investors.
The MMLP is projected to attract investments exceeding ₹5,000 crore and is expected to generate over 15,000 employment opportunities across various sectors, including construction, logistics management, transportation, and warehousing. The initiative aims to bolster regional economic growth, decongest existing logistics hubs around Delhi NCR, and leverage the proximity to the upcoming Jewar airport to facilitate international trade. The establishment of the Multi-Modal Logistics Park in Greater Noida marks a significant step towards transforming the region into a major logistics and industrial hub. With its strategic location, advanced infrastructure, and supportive policy framework, the project is poised to enhance India’s competitiveness in global markets and contribute to the country’s economic development.
