MIHAN Nagpur: Companies, IT Park, and Nagpur's Industrial Belt

MIHAN Nagpur is a major infrastructure and economic development project built around an international airport, a Special Economic Zone, logistics infrastructure, IT facilities, healthcare and manufacturing. It is about 28 km from Essentia Luxury Hotel and Convention, Nagpur, a drive of approximately 50 minutes.

Essentia sits on the Kamptee side of Nagpur, so its location is more convenient for the city's northern and Kamptee-side industrial catchment than for MIHAN itself. This guide looks at what MIHAN is, the companies operating within its SEZ, Nagpur's wider industrial belt, and the practical travel considerations for a business visit.

What is MIHAN?

MIHAN stands for Multi-modal International Cargo Hub and Airport at Nagpur. The project combines Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar International Airport with a large Special Economic Zone and supporting infrastructure for logistics, manufacturing, IT, and other industries. The SEZ is designed to accommodate sectors including information technology, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing, and other export-oriented businesses.

The project also includes healthcare infrastructure, residential development, road and rail connectivity, warehousing, and other facilities that support businesses operating within the wider MIHAN complex. MIHAN India Limited, a joint venture between Maharashtra Airport Development Company and the Airports Authority of India, is responsible for the airport's development, operation and management. For businesses, the significance of MIHAN lies in this combination of aviation, logistics, commercial infrastructure and industrial development within one larger economic zone.

The IT Park, Nagpur at MIHAN

The IT Park, Nagpur, is one of MIHAN's 3 broad segments, built to attract technology and services companies. The official MIHAN SEZ records currently list IT and ITES operations from companies including Tata Consultancy Services, Infosys, Hexaware Technologies, HCL Technologies, Tech Mahindra and InfoCepts, among others. The presence of these companies makes MIHAN relevant not only to aviation and manufacturing, but also to Nagpur's growing technology and services sector.

Some of the established names recorded in the current operational list include:

  • Tata Consultancy Services - IT and ITES services
  • Infosys - IT and ITES services
  • Hexaware Technologies - IT and ITES services
  • HCL Technologies - IT and ITES services

The list reflects the units recorded by the MIHAN SEZ authorities and can change as businesses expand, relocate or add operations. It is therefore worth checking the latest official operational list when planning a business visit.

Industrial Estates in Nagpur

MIHAN is not the only industrial hub in Nagpur. A business trip centred on MIHAN may also involve meetings or operations in Hingna and Butibori, making it useful to understand how these industrial areas differ and where they sit across the city.

Hingna MIDC Nagpur and Its Industrial Landscape

Hingna MIDC, Nagpur, is one of the city's older industrial estates, home to auto-component and engineering units. It sits closer to the city centre than Butibori, making it a shorter drive for a same-day business visit. Hingna's industrial development dates back to the 1970s, and the local industries association now counts around 500 member units.

Butibori MIDC, Nagpur's Industrial Belt

Butibori MIDC, Nagpur, is often described as one of Asia's largest industrial estates, spread across roughly 2,500 hectares. It sits further from the city than Hingna, making it a longer drive for a same-day visit. Large-scale manufacturing, including automobile and ancillary units, forms the bulk of the industrial activity here.

Newer sectors, including electronics and mega renewable-energy manufacturing hubs (such as major solar cell superfactories), have anchored themselves here. While the core zone features over 100 major manufacturing units, a massive multi-thousand-acre 'Additional Butibori' expansion is underway to accommodate a surge of new international and domestic industrial projects.

Getting to MIHAN and the MIDCs

Nagpur's major business and industrial areas are spread across different parts of the city, so travel times can vary depending on where meetings are scheduled. MIHAN lies towards the south, while Hingna is to the west and Butibori is further south along the NH 44 corridor. Sitabuldi remains a central reference point for meetings within the city.

From Essentia Luxury Hotel and Convention, Nagpur, MIHAN is approximately 28 km away, with a drive time of around 50 minutes. Sitabuldi is about 12 km from our hotel and around a 25-minute drive. Travel times to Hingna MIDC and Butibori MIDC can vary depending on the specific business location and traffic conditions. Guests comparing hotel rooms in Nagpur for a MIHAN trip should factor these drive times into their choice.
