The mega-mall is the first significant FDI investment in the State of Jammu and Kashmir to facilitate investments in marquee projects as per the MOU signed between the governments of the UAE and India. “The Mall of Srinagar and allied projects with the government of Dubai will fuel the economic growth of Jammu and Kashmir and bring us closer to achieving our shared vision of strengthening bilateral trade and investment ties between UAE and India. By creating jobs and attracting new businesses to our union territory, we are laying the foundation for a stronger and more prosperous future for the people of Jammu and Kashmir,” said Sinha.
The Mall of Srinagar is expected to open its door to residents of the city by 2026.
“Being the largest-ever mall built in the state, over 1000 people are expected to be hired during construction. Once operational, the mall will create 13,500 new jobs in Jammu and Kashmir,” added a spokesperson from Magna Waves Buildtech.
The 1,000,000 sq. ft. project will offer a world-class experience to the residents of Jammu and Kashmir and is likely to become a major attraction for thousands of tourists visiting Srinagar from across India. The project’s world class development will include a mall, 6 cinema multiplexes, five-star hotel, multi-use commercial and residential complex.
“Mall of Srinagar is one of our milestone projects and we are excited about the potential of it. As Emaar group, we bring along strong relationships with leading retail brands of UAE, most of which will be launching their presence in India through this initiative,” said Amit Jan, CEO Emaar.
