A major boost to Tamil Nadu’s industrial growth!
Brazil-based global electrical equipment giant WEG has chosen Dharmapuri, Tamil Nadu, for its proposed ₹2,000 crore global manufacturing investment, with the potential to create around 3,000 jobs!
Despite Andhra Pradesh’s efforts to attract the project to Kuppam, WEG ultimately preferred Tamil Nadu following continuous engagement with the state’s Industries Department and Industries Minister Selvi S. Keerthana.
The investment decision followed multiple rounds of discussions, site inspections and meetings between WEG’s leadership and Tamil Nadu government officials, culminating in the company’s confirmation on October 16, 2026.
This landmark development is expected to strengthen Dharmapuri’s industrial ecosystem, create thousands of employment opportunities and bring more investment to regions beyond Tamil Nadu’s traditional manufacturing hubs.
Under the leadership of Hon’ble CM C. Joseph Vijay, Tamil Nadu continues to strengthen its position as a leading global investment destination through proactive investor engagement and balanced regional development.
