The Indian Chamber of Commerce (ICC) plans to facilitate investments worth one lakh crore rupees in West Bengal through its member companies, reflecting growing industry confidence in the state’s economic potential and growth prospects.
The proposal was discussed during a meeting in New Delhi between an ICC delegation led by its President, Brij Bhushan Aggarwal and Union Minister Jitendra Singh. The chamber said West Bengal is witnessing renewed optimism and positive momentum, which could help accelerate economic growth and strengthen its position as an attractive destination for investment.
The meeting reflects ongoing efforts to deepen industry-government collaboration and leverage private sector investment to drive regional economic growth. ICC expressed willingness to work with the Centre and the state government to support the state’s development agenda. ICC, which was founded in 1925 by Ghanshyam Das Birla and other business leaders, is one of India’s oldest industry bodies.
