The only way to get erode developed is Erode should become zonal/ regional head quarters for State/ Central govt such as excise/ IT/ customs/ Industries units. It is impossible. Now v r coming under Kovai or Salem zones in govt. related offices. so they wont try for revision of zonals. If erode becomes head quarters then supporting business/ banks will be also come. so money circulation/ floatation starts. then only erode can come in limelight. otherwise, erode should grow on its own as now.
One proud things is Perundurai SIPCOT is India's (or Asia's - i doubt) second largest industrial estate. total area of approx. 2700 acres, with further expansion planned. (it is double the size of Kochi refinery which is 1300 acres).
Also our city business people should try to start new ventures in erode. But no one except few r doing that due to quick business returns. For example, KMCH hospitals is being run by Tiruchengode based group. Kovai Hindustan Group of colleges are run by Tiruchengode based group. Our maharaja started theme park in kovai. like this many examples can be given

It is impossible for Erode to be Zonal/regional head quarters as Cbe,Slm are near by.Having Perundurai Sipcot is help full for us to attract some attention atleast.
I wondered lot of times why big groups like Maharaja are not interested in start something in erode like multiplex.If some one starts then we can see lot of followers..
The only thing happening in our city that we are getting hand full of small restaurants everywhere .Hope big guns like KFC will come soon..

Coimbatore is the mother of western region. You cant abandon her;rather should take part in the growth of cbe and the entire western region has to be showcased with coimbatore only. Perundurai SIPCOT is sitting with such a big land without good investment for a long time. One main reason is that it was not properly marketed by TN govt. TN govt would rather sell all the SIPCOT land near chennai than push companies to perundurai.
If the SIPCOT had been closer to coimbatore, it would have been far more successful.

As you said Cbe is head of Kongu.no doubt about it.but it is natural as we have Cbe is near by it is really difficult for cities like Erd,Tpr to grow further level.

we cant blame any one for this.

If SIPCOT have came near Cbe,it would been successful.But that is situation that we worry about that cant able to come to limelight.

no actually govt is marketing SIPCOT in good way. they planned perindurai sipcot for mechanical industries. so it will take time
however, i heard, the plot rate/rent is very costly in perundurai sipcot. so many investers r hesitating. if they convert it as general allocation, then many investment will come. since erode is a fertile land, our major business r depending on food industries. and traditional business. though it give late and optimal returns, but it is evergreen. luckily v also have LBP project, running through out the district. hence our real estate market is always good even chennai area face dull market. u can observe one thing, if real estate is dull, chennai areas had lower their prices of land. but in erode it was increasing!! all because of LBP only. one good thing it is a complete gravity flow system designed with out any pumping station running more than 52 kms i think

[Brand coimbatore]

What is LBP?
2) why govt have to bring SIPCOT in fertile lands? I think the main reason for perundurai SIPCOT , govt was unable to find major chunk of lands near cbe or dont want to support cbe ( as it does always). I am not arguing that SIPCOT should not be there at perundurai but it is unable to attract investments even with SEZ status.

Erode will get the required attention if TN govt religiously establish cbe-salem industrial corridor.

Kovai is also having SIPCOT (may be in thudialur in mettupalayam road and one in NH i thnik). Its not that kovai is not having SIPCOT. Also Kovai is already having industrial back ground, Govt planned to develop other areas with industries which r lagging in industrial growth. That is the concept of SIPCOT. for example, nanguneri is having IT SEZ, whether that area is having any development? (pl correct me if am wrong) but they have planned IT SEZ there. comparitively IT SEZ is better to be in kovai which is having enormous and very good engineering colleges.

Erode SIPCOT was brought in Perundurai thats all. They have selected near by Perundurai location, as that area is dry land with out cauvery water irrigation which is perinial compared with LBP. Hence govt. will give subsidies to start industries in backward areas. Similarly govt. has announced darapuram as dry area, but now it is in Tiruppur district.

The reason y western side of erode i.e towards kovai is getting developed is, this area is not having river water irrigation. hence it is declared as dry land. East/ north / south areas for erode are covered fully with irrigation land and river cauvery which is district boundary. going out of district boundary may not be called for district's revenue.

Qn1) whether TN govt announced Perundurai as backward area & giving incentives to establish industries?? If that is the case I assume it should have attracted a meaning full no. of industries by now.
Nanguneri SEZ is a different story and it has the typical problem faced by any other southern districts. Plus it is a Mutli prodt SEZ and its failure can be only attributed to govt's dormancy.
# Cbe does not have a SIPCOT. It has only 2 SIDCO which is different from SIPCOT. SIDCO mainly caters to SMBs and there are no high capital investors. That makes difference. Compare a SIPCOT in chennai-sriperambudur with nokia, samsung etc and SIDCO of cbe ( comparitively very less investment ).
# IT-SEZ, most of the forumers know how TN govt missed the bus to promote other cities. It gave 5 options for companies to set up shop and ended up getting nothing or 1 in most places. At least they could have marketed the TIDEL park in cbe properly (for that govt spent 350 cr)

Thank you so much guys..

[gokula krishnan]

s. perundurai is a backward area announced by govt. as u said kovai may not have SIPCOT as it is developed already and no need of extra assistance. U can refer the SIPCOT site also for its objective. the objective is given below:

Objectives of SIPCOT
SIPCOT has rendered fruitful services to the state by identifying, developing, maintaining industrial areas in backward and most backward talukas of the State, which had potential to grow.
Establish, develop, maintain and manage industrial complexes, parks and growth centres at various places across the State of Tamil Nadu.
Provide escort services to medium and large scale industries.
SIPCOT's role in assisting the industrialization in the State is not only quantitative but also qualitative.

Instead of just accelerating the pace of industrial growth in already developed and densely populated areas, SIPCOT, as a nodal agency, strives to ensure that disbursal of financial incentives result in spurt of industrial growth in backward and hitherto under developed areas.

To ensure a good impact with available limited resources SIPCOT has created industrial complexes, parks, growth centres in various strategically located places, which occupy a place of pride in Tamil Nadu's industrial map.

One thing I quoted wrongly, Nanguneri SEZ is belonging to TIDCO and not of SIPCOT.

I think NJ is tourist van operator.They have number of vans for tour operation.
Seems like NJK not operating any services from Erode.but i found one bus of NJK with TN-33 no ,in another forum parked in nagerkoil along with other omni buses..May be they oprates that bus either from cbe or Salem to Nagerkoil.but needs confirmation.

Erode has only one reg no that is 33. 56 belongs to Perundurai.as i heard Thindal also comes under Perundurai RTO.So new vehicles in that area gets 56.

so virtually Erode has 2 reg nos.We can see vehicles with TN 33,TN 56 running in Erode.
