Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has received approval from the West Bengal government for a 20-acre land parcel in Kolkata’s Bengal Silicon Valley. The project, which will be executed in two phases, is expected to generate 25,000 direct employment opportunities and significantly boost the state’s IT infrastructure.
The West Bengal government has granted 20 acres of prime land to TCS for establishing a cutting-edge office campus. The New Town Kolkata Development Authority (NKDA) has cleared the Phase I building plan. Located in the rapidly growing Bengal Silicon Valley project in Kolkata, the campus aims to strengthen the state’s image as a major tech hub.
The office campus will be constructed in 2 phases. Phase I will cover 9 lakh sq. ft. of space, featuring an 11-storey office tower and accommodating around 5,000 professionals. Phase II will add another 15 lakh sq. ft., increasing the total infrastructure to 24 lakh sq. ft. Upon completion, the full facility is projected to support 25,000 direct job opportunities.
This announcement marks a crucial milestone in West Bengal’s employment landscape. With over 25,000 anticipated positions, this development is poised to attract skilled talent and drive regional economic growth. The influx of jobs is not only expected to benefit technology professionals but also support ancillary industries in the region.
