IndoSpace is jointly promoted by Everstone Group, GRP and Realterm. "Our investment, which is the largest ever in Karnataka, will work towards enhancing the industrial infrastructure in the state. IndoSpace already has a significant presence in the state, and we have enabled tenants from sectors, such as electronic, automobile, e-commerce, fashion, supply chain and more to grow," said Jaggi.
