Chengalpattu
Prime Industrial Location
Chengalpattu has transformed from a primarily agricultural-focused, administrative town into a major industrial, IT, and manufacturing hub south of Chennai, largely driven by the Mahindra World City and the GST road corridor. Chengalpattu is often referred to as the ‘Gateway of Chennai’. It has shifted from a “satellite town” to a self-sustaining industrial node and is now evolving into a dedicated biotech and manufacturing powerhouse. Tamil Nadu Industrial Development Corporation (TIDCO) is establishing a new biotech industrial park and an 800-acre SIPCOT Industrial Park in Cheyyur which is under development, further cementing its status. The area features multiple industrial zones, including SIDCO industrial estates at Maraimalainagar, Kodur, and Alathur, providing specialized facilities for electronics, automotive, and pharmaceutical industries.
