Jabalpur Development Authority

Jabalpur Development Authority is a statutory organization under the supervision of the Government of Madhya Pradesh, India which was established after the state government of Madhya Pradesh recognized the urgent need to encourage public-private partnership in the housing sector by forming joint ventures.

The Government of Madhya Pradesh and Jabalpur Development Authority have been vested with the task of developing housing and other civic amenity infrastructures at par with international standards. The city of Jabalpur is dominated by small-time businessmen and traders, along with large government offices. With the advent of industrialization in India, foreign companies are exploring hitherto untapped geographical areas to cash on cheap labor force. Jabalpur was recently caught in the radar of foreign investors for making investments in sectors like -

Tourism
Mining
Textile
Auto ancillaries
Banking
Insurance and financial services
Food and food products
Power generation

This rise in industrial boom in Jabalpur led the Madhya Pradesh Government to enter into public-private partnerships in the area of real estate development. This has in fact, propelled the demand for quality infrastructure both, residential and business infrastructure. Jabalpur Development Authority is presently involved with the construction of a number of projects in different parts of Jabalpur. Jabalpur Development Authority provides, not only residential accommodation but also other amenities of cosmopolitan city life like business facilities, cultural facilities, educational, and health care facilities, large open spaces, green areas, water bodies, sports complex, permanent exhibition complex, modern hospitals, arterial roads, and transport terminals. Further, the Jabalpur Development Authority also provides new business areas with non-polluting, non-offensive, and non-hazardous industrial infrastructure. A major portion of the dwelling units developed by it are meant for EWS, LIG, and MIG categories. The board has so far constructed many housing units belonging to EWS/LIG/MIG/HIG groups for the public on ownership bases. It has also sold developed plots to the public for making houses of their own.

Over the last few years, urban, planned development in Jabalpur has gathered considerable momentum and the contribution of the Jabalpur Development Authority in this regard is worth mentioning.
