identified BELGAUM for creating a Cluster considering the potential of
the Industry.
The objective is to strengthen the existing infrastructure and to
create additional infrastructure with a view to enhance efficiency,
competitiveness, raise export capabilities and make the industry
environment-friendly by reducing pollution.
This is being done to develop World Class Infrastructure under the
special “INDUSTRIAL INFRASTRUCTURE UPGRADATION SCHEME “ [IIUS] of the
350 foundry units in Karnataka, one third units are located in Belgaum
spread over six industrial estates producing 8000 tonnes of castings per
month with export content of Rs.45 crores.
