DSIIDC: All you need to know about the Delhi State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation

With an intention to promote industrial and infrastructure development in the national capital, the Delhi State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (DSIIDC) was established in February 1971. Since then, this state government body has played a key role in fast-tracking the development of Delhi, by assisting and financing big-ticket projects. Here is everything you need to know about the DSIIDC.

Role of DSIIDC

The DSIIDC oversees all state-led infrastructure development in the national capital. Since New Delhi is a union territory, the Delhi government shares the responsibility of developing the business nodes in the city with the union government. The DSIIDC is also responsible for providing infrastructure in the unauthorised colonies, providing housing to industrial workers, developing and maintaining industrial areas under public-private partnership (PPP) model and redeveloping state government buildings.

Major projects by DSIIDC

Housing for urban poor

The DSIIDC builds homes for the urban poor. Around 13,820 houses have been completed and allotted by the DSIIDC. These homes are provided with essential services like electricity, water and sewage disposal, besides other facilities required to make them habitable. These homes have been constructed at several locations – for example, DSIIDC Bawana, Narela, Pooth Khurd and Kanjhawala. To make them cost-effective, fly-ash products were used.
