GIFT City India's Premier Financial Hub
GIFT City is located in Gujarat, between Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar. It stands as India's first fully operational smart city and international financial services centre (IFSC). Developed from scratch across 886 acres, with significant room for future expansion, it blends special economic zones for global business with domestic areas. Modern infrastructure includes district cooling systems, automated waste collection, underground utilities, high-security data centres, and efficient metro links to major airports.
The city hosts vital sectors such as banking, insurance, IT services, fund management, aircraft and ship leasing, and supporting industries. Streamlined single-window approvals from the International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA), along with strong backing from the central and Gujarat governments, ensure smooth operations. Its walk-to-work layout, with housing, schools, hotels, and leisure facilities, creates an ideal environment for international firms to establish and grow.
