Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) has announced an investment of around Rs.40 billion in agri-retail and gas. RIL would start an agri-retail chain business across West Bengal, besides bringing
natural gas from Andhra Pradesh to Haldia, the port of West Bengal. The proposed agri-retail chain business will help link the farmers to the consumers and will transform agri-business to agro-processing business.

However, the land requirement for setting up the agri-retail business is yet to be finalized.For complete IIPM article click here
