His work reflects a belief that the future of India’s economic geography must shift beyond traditional metros, and that the North holds untapped potential to join the league of global industrial centers.

Positioning Mohali as North India’s Response to India’s Industrial Divide
India’s industrial map has traditionally been skewed toward the South, with hubs in Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad and Coimbatore dominating IT and manufacturing. Bansal believes North India and specifically Mohali, has the talent, geographic advantage and affordability to replicate that success. His Vision Includes:
- Bringing Fortune 500 companies through ready-to-use compliant infrastructure.
- Establishing Free Trade Zones and Industrial Townships with global-standard amenities.
- Creating Plug-and-Play Parks where businesses can begin operations within weeks.
- Developing Data-Center Ready Zones to ride the wave of cloud computing, AI adoption and global digital expansion.
- Attracting companies shifting operations to India through “China + 1” strategies.
His vision aligns with global business trends, supply chains diversifying post-pandemic, MNCs exploring India as the next major destination and the government accelerating its push for industrial corridors.
