The Karnataka government has revived plans to establish a logistics park at Balepura, near Kempegowda International Airport in Bengaluru, by floating a tender under the public-private partnership (PPP) model.

Karnataka State Industrial & Infrastructure Development Corporation (KSIIDC) issued the tender under the design, finance, build, operate, and transfer (DFBOT) framework.

The selected developer must build an integrated logistics facility—potentially including warehouses, cold storage, or manufacturing units—on 10 acres, with operations to begin within 36 months of the award.

A minimum built-up area of 1.8 lakh sq ft is required. Initially proposed in the 2022 State Logistics Plan, the project faced delays.
