How to unlock the potential?
The last decade has seen an unprecedented
growth in India's financial services sector. It
employs over 3 million people, constitutes
about 5% of the GDP and has an estimated
market capitalisation of over USD 200 billion.
As India experiences continued economic growth, the financial
services sector could generate about 10-11 million jobs and a GDP
contribution of USD 350 to 400 billion by year 2020. With sustained
growth and rapid development in technology and infrastructure, an
increasing share of financial services would get centralised.
McKinsey Market Assessment Report estimates potential of about
6 million centralised jobs across multiple services.
Several developed countries have successfully established hightech financial hubs, which over time have evolved as international
financial service centres. These centres provide suitable regulatory
regimes and create a business environment to promote talent and
increase capital flow. As they develop, they create significant
economic value for their domestic economies; London and New
York account for 10% of the GDP and about 5% of jobs. Emerging
financial service centres like Singapore and Hong Kong have
achieved similar levels of concentration of economic activity in a
short period of time.
India is not able to fully realise its vast
potential in financial services because
our cities do not have the required
infrastructure. If India wants to
compete with international financial
hubs, our cities will have to provide
global standards in infrastructure,
office space, internet and telecom
connectivity and lifestyle opportunities
which would attract top talent.
Gujarat: An Ideal Destination For
Realising This Dream
Time and again, Gujarat has proved
itself to be one of the fastest growing
states in the country with more than
10% average GDP growth during the
past six years. It leads in chemicals,
petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals,
cement, ceramics and diamond
industries. Gujarat contributes 30% to
the Stock Market Capitalisation, 16%
to the country's total output and 19% to
exports. Recent studies show that
Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar are the
favoured destinations to migrate in
India because of good urban
infrastructure, a business friendly
environment and good living
conditions.

GIFT: Gujarat's gift to India and the world
GIFT will cater to India's large financial services potential by offering global firms, world-class
infrastructure and facilities. It aims to attract the top talent in the country by providing the finest quality
of life. It is estimated that GIFT would provide 5,00,000 direct and an equal number of indirect jobs
which would require 62 million square feet of real estate office and residential space.

Entertainment Area
Designed to woo, mesmerise and entertain the visitors, the Entertainment Area will include restaurants, craft
bazaars and leisure activities to provide an evening of fun and relaxation in a serene ambience.
Exhibition Centre
The façade shading louvers will have a form inspired from
symbols and patterns used in traditional Indian architecture.
Enchanting and organic curves will come out of tall straight
vertical lines, metaphorically reflecting a Bodhi tree
rising straight from the ground, growing to form a pattern of
branches. The magnitude and strength of the towers will be
maintained along with the rhythm and sensuousness of the
curve to achieve a unique aesthetic effect.
Exhibition Centre envisions a vibrant new experience of
modernity with traditional idioms. The block will become
the cultural hub of the city as it emotes the lifestyle of the
community.
Exhibition Centre will connote a global expression providing
satisfactory sensory experience for both users and visitors
that is a hallmark of good design.

How to unlock the potential?
The last decade has seen an unprecedented
growth in India's financial services sector. It
employs over 3 million people, constitutes
about 5% of the GDP and has an estimated
market capitalisation of over USD 200 billion.
As India experiences continued economic growth, the financial
services sector could generate about 10-11 million jobs and a GDP
contribution of USD 350 to 400 billion by year 2020. With sustained
growth and rapid development in technology and infrastructure, an
increasing share of financial services would get centralised.
McKinsey Market Assessment Report estimates potential of about
6 million centralised jobs across multiple services.
Several developed countries have successfully established hightech financial hubs, which over time have evolved as international
financial service centres. These centres provide suitable regulatory
regimes and create a business environment to promote talent and
increase capital flow. As they develop, they create significant
economic value for their domestic economies; London and New
York account for 10% of the GDP and about 5% of jobs. Emerging
financial service centres like Singapore and Hong Kong have
achieved similar levels of concentration of economic activity in a
short period of time.
India is not able to fully realise its vast
potential in financial services because
our cities do not have the required
infrastructure. If India wants to
compete with international financial
hubs, our cities will have to provide
global standards in infrastructure,
office space, internet and telecom
connectivity and lifestyle opportunities
which would attract top talent.
Gujarat: An Ideal Destination For
Realising This Dream
Time and again, Gujarat has proved
itself to be one of the fastest growing
states in the country with more than
10% average GDP growth during the
past six years. It leads in chemicals,
petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals,
cement, ceramics and diamond
industries. Gujarat contributes 30% to
the Stock Market Capitalisation, 16%
to the country's total output and 19% to
exports. Recent studies show that
Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar are the
favoured destinations to migrate in
India because of good urban
infrastructure, a business friendly
environment and good living
conditions.

GIFT: Gujarat's gift to India and the world
GIFT will cater to India's large financial services potential by offering global firms, world-class
infrastructure and facilities. It aims to attract the top talent in the country by providing the finest quality
of life. It is estimated that GIFT would provide 5,00,000 direct and an equal number of indirect jobs
which would require 62 million square feet of real estate office and residential space.

Entertainment Area
Designed to woo, mesmerise and entertain the visitors, the Entertainment Area will include restaurants, craft
bazaars and leisure activities to provide an evening of fun and relaxation in a serene ambience.
Exhibition Centre
The façade shading louvers will have a form inspired from
symbols and patterns used in traditional Indian architecture.
Enchanting and organic curves will come out of tall straight
vertical lines, metaphorically reflecting a Bodhi tree
rising straight from the ground, growing to form a pattern of
branches. The magnitude and strength of the towers will be
maintained along with the rhythm and sensuousness of the
curve to achieve a unique aesthetic effect.
Exhibition Centre envisions a vibrant new experience of
modernity with traditional idioms. The block will become
the cultural hub of the city as it emotes the lifestyle of the
community.
Exhibition Centre will connote a global expression providing
satisfactory sensory experience for both users and visitors
that is a hallmark of good design.

hence the strong connectivity through various
systems have been envisaged to connect it with

planned and designed for more than 1 million

huge impact on transport requirements
considering the number of trips that would be
generated to and from the city.
