Gujarat Infrastructure Development Board (GIDB)

Overview of the Gujarat Infrastructure Development Board (GIDB)

The Gujarat Infrastructure Development Board (GIDB) acts as the state’s apex body for monitoring and guiding major infrastructure initiatives, including projects aligned with the Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC). Led by senior state leadership, GIDB evaluates development proposals, oversees land-use planning, and ensures that key decisions follow unified policy standards. While certain operational responsibilities may be delegated to expert committees, core functions—such as approving regional plans, shaping investment strategies, and maintaining regulatory clarity—remain under its direct authority. This governance model ensures that Gujarat’s infrastructure growth, especially in logistics and industrial corridors, progresses in a coordinated and transparent manner, supporting long-term development across the state.
