The Indian Chamber of Commerce (ICC) proposed an investment of ₹1 lakh crore in West Bengal to boost regional economic growth and industrial development. The investment is expected to be facilitated through ICC member companies and aims to attract large-scale projects across key sectors. The initiative emphasises collaboration between the Central Government, the West Bengal state government, and industry stakeholders to unlock the state's economic potential. Founded in 1925 by Ghanshyam Das Birla and headquartered in Kolkata, the ICC is one of India's oldest industry associations and plays a significant role in promoting business and economic development.
