Mahindra Satyam, formerly Satyam computer services, is set to revive its plans for setting up a facility in Mihan (Multi-modal International Cargo Hub and Airport at Nagpur) SEZ at Nagpur.
The company had approached the Ministry of Commerce to extend the validity of the project for two more years, according to a senior official of MSat.
The letter of approval for the project with an initial validity of one year had expired in June 2009 and later, on a request from the company, it was extended till July this year.
“We are planning to begin the project by constructing a compound wall. However there is long way to go,” the official told PTI while refusing to provide further details about capacity and investments.
Satyam had been the first investor in the SEZ and was allotted 128 acres of land. However, after the Satyam scam broke out in 2009 the project was put in cold storage by the new management - Mahindras.
According to the information furnished to the Commerce ministry, the company has finalised the contractor for construction of compound wall. An architect has also been appointed for working out a detailed plan for its campus.
