Bengaluru: Karnataka has secured fresh investment commitments worth ₹1.53 lakh crore from major domestic and global corporations, reinforcing the state’s position as one of India’s leading investment destinations. Technology giant Google and conglomerate Reliance Industries are among the prominent investors, according to the state government.

As part of the new proposals, Google is set to invest ₹2,500 crore in Bengaluru, further strengthening the city’s status as a global technology and innovation hub. In another major boost to the state’s digital infrastructure, Japan-based NTT plans to invest ₹4,000 crore to establish large-scale data centres at Devanahalli, near the Kempegowda International Airport.

State officials said the investments span multiple sectors, including information technology, data centres, infrastructure, energy and manufacturing, and are expected to generate substantial employment opportunities while accelerating economic growth.
