Bihar Integrated Manufacturing City Gaya Limited (BIMCGL) is the Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) responsible for developing the 1,670-acre Integrated Manufacturing Cluster (IMC) at Dobhi, Gaya, under the Amritsar–Kolkata Industrial Corridor (AKIC). The project has received Environmental Clearance from the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC), reflecting its commitment to sustainable industrial development.

Located near the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Mahabodhi Temple in Bodh Gaya, IMC Gaya combines cultural significance with strong industrial potential. The project benefits from excellent connectivity through national highways, railways, Gaya International Airport, the Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor, inland waterways, and key logistics hubs.

With plug-and-play infrastructure, modern utilities, and strong policy support from the Government of Bihar, BIMCGL offers an attractive destination for industries. The project is expected to attract investments of around ₹16,524 crore and generate over 1.09 lakh employment opportunities, strengthening Bihar's position as a major manufacturing hub.

The National Industrial Corridor Development Corporation (NICDC) is spearheading India’s flagship National Industrial Corridor Development Programme (NICDP), one of the country’s most ambitious infrastructure programme aiming to develop new industrial cities as 'Smart Cities' and converging next generation technologies across infrastructure sectors.

Government of India is developing various industrial corridor projects as part of the National Industrial Corridor Programme which is aimed at development of futuristic industrial cities in India which can compete with the best manufacturing and investment destinations in the world. The same will create employment opportunities and economic growth leading to overall socio-economic development.

While developing the Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) project, Western Dedicated Freight Corridor has been considered as the transportation backbone while Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor has been considered as the backbone for Amritsar Kolkata Industrial Corridor (AKIC) project. For other industrial corridor projects like Chennai Bengaluru Industrial Corridor (CBIC) and Bengaluru Mumbai Industrial Corridor (BMIC), NH-4 has been considered as the backbone. For the East Coast Economic Corridor (ECEC), NH-5 which is part of the Golden Quadrilateral, the Kolkata–Chennai rail route has been considered as the transport backbone. The proposed North-South East-West and East Coast Dedicated Freight Corridors will further supplement the existing transportation backbone for the corresponding industrial corridors.
