Greater Noida, Maharashtra Set for Major Boost as New Logistics Parks Take Shape
Experts say that the twin developments reflect India’s rising attractiveness as a logistics destination, supported by expressways, dedicated freight corridors and policies promoting efficient cargo movement. As both projects progress, they are expected to enhance India’s logistics competitiveness, reduce freight turnaround times and support the country’s ambition of becoming a global manufacturing and distribution hub.

India’s logistics infrastructure is set for a significant upgrade with two major developments underway—one in Greater Noida and another in Maharashtra—signalling strong investor confidence and a push toward modern, integrated supply-chain hubs.
Authorities in Uttar Pradesh have initiated land allocation for a new Multi-Modal Logistics Park (MMLP) in Greater Noida, a project expected to serve as a crucial link between Northern India’s industrial clusters and national freight corridors. The proposed park will integrate road, rail and possibly air cargo connectivity to streamline the movement of goods. Officials say the park will help decongest Delhi-NCR traffic, reduce logistics costs for manufacturers, and attract warehousing, cold storage and value-add service providers. Once operational, it is expected to generate thousands of jobs and support regional industries ranging from electronics and textiles to agriculture and e-commerce.
Meanwhile in Maharashtra, global investment giant Blackstone has announced plans to invest over ₹5,000 crore in developing new logistics and industrial parks across the state. These parks are expected to come up in major freight zones such as Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), Pune and Nagpur. Blackstone’s investment aligns with the rising demand for Grade-A warehouses, driven by e-commerce growth, manufacturing expansion and the state’s improving transport infrastructure.

With land allocation underway in Greater Noida and major private investment flowing into Maharashtra, the logistics sector appears poised for strong, sustained growth in the coming years.
