The executive empowered committee of Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (HSIIDC) has approved the allotment at a cost of Rs. 432 crore. Flipkart will set up a logistic park in the land parcel over the next 3-5 years, which has a potential of a total built up area of five million square feet and will be developed in 2-3 phases. The development is expected to cost Rs. 3,500 crore and will create over 12,000 jobs in the state. The first phase is likely to be operationalised by 2022.
