Besides, a smart integrated IT park and multilevel buildings will also be developed

Zero-emission industries will be given the priority. Further, the Delhi government will provide land at concessional rates for the same. In addition, the document had been submitted to Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena for approval
The Delhi State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (DSIIDC) has been handed over the responsibility to develop the new industrial hub. Upon its development, the Rani Khera industrial area would offer direct as well as indirect employment

In 2011, the Delhi government announced the project with the initial deadline to complete the first phase by 2022, but it could never take off, later in 2020 it was revived. In January 2021, the government reviewed the project and extended the deadline to complete the first phase in March 2023 and the second phase in March 2025
