The State has at present three Industrial Area Development Authorities with Head Quarters at Adityapur, Bokaro and Ranchi. These authorities are responsible for acquisition of land, development of infrastructure facilities like road, drainage, park, water supply, public utilities, etc. within their jurisdiction. It is contemplated to establish an Industrial Area Dvelopment Authority fro Santhal Pargana with Head Quarters at Dumka.

The State Government would endeavour to identify new industrial areas so as to ensure each District has at least two industrial areas which would facilitate balanced growth of the entire State.

The Government is committed to provide international standard infrastructure and facilities in the industrial areas and estates managed by the Industrial Area Development Authorities. Existing infrastructure shall be upgraded and maintained efficiently. Supporting facilities in these industrial areas in terms of access to information, transportation linkages, housing facilities, telecommunications, health, education, sports etc. would further be strengthened and new facilities wherever required would be provided.

Steps would taken to revamp the Industrial Area Development Authorities and bring them under unified control to ensure uniform application of procedures, facilities and benefits to the entrepreneurs.
