A state-backed joint venture has floated a ?315.2 crore tender to begin construction of a new IT park in Trichy. This project will add 5.5 lakh square feet of IT and ITES office space, tripling the city’s existing infrastructure.

Private developers are also planning to contribute another 6 lakh square feet of office space in response to growing demand from investors attracted by Trichy’s low operational costs and access to a skilled talent pool. The IT park will be located next to the upcoming integrated bus terminus on the Trichy-Madurai National Highway.

Trichy’s IT/ITES infrastructure currently includes two government-owned facilities totaling 1.8 lakh square feet. With the new IT park, the city’s government office space will expand to 7.3 lakh square feet within two years.

Officials are also planning a fair to promote office and commercial space, as development has so far focused mainly on residential projects. The need for malls, luxury hotels, and other entertainment options will also be assessed.
