With a project value of approximately Rs.44 crore, NBCC is all set to take the reins as Project Management Consultant for a grand infrastructure expansion at the Energy Institute, Bengaluru  the southern campus of Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology (RGIPT).

 

Located in Kambalipura, Hosakote Taluk, spread across a sprawling 125-hectare expanse and nestled just a short drive from Bengaluru’s vibrant cityscape and Kempegowda International Airport, this futuristic campus will witness a spectacular architectural transformation. From modern institutional blocks and dignitary guest houses to a vibrant residential hub for students and faculty, the upcoming facilities will reflect not just scale and functionality, but a vision of sustainable, smart living that echoes India’s climate-conscious commitments.

 

The development will feature a built-up area of over 13,500 square metres and more importantly, a dynamic fusion of technology, architecture and ecological design.
