Having lived and worked in Coimbatore for decades, I have witnessed the city’s quiet transformation. Once known mainly as a textile and manufacturing hub, Coimbatore is now emerging as one of India’s most promising IT destinations. Its growth is not about speed alone, but about the distinct advantages that make it a sustainable choice for businesses.

Mr. Sivaraman, Managing Director, Tanny Shelters

For years, Bengaluru has been the natural choice for IT operations in India. It offers scale, visibility, and a vibrant ecosystem. Yet, its very success has created challenges-rising costs, talent churn, and urban congestion-that make long-term growth increasingly difficult. Here, Coimbatore offers a refreshing alternative.

The city’s greatest strength is its people. With a steady pipeline of engineers and managers from leading local institutions, Coimbatore provides skilled talent that is both committed and stable. In an industry where attrition is a persistent concern, companies here benefit from stronger retention and continuity.

Cost efficiency adds to this advantage. Operating in Coimbatore can save 30-40% across salaries, rentals, and infrastructure, allowing businesses to scale without compromise. The presence of major IT parks such as TIDEL Park, CHIL SEZ, and KCT Tech Park-already hosting global names like TCS, Cognizant, and Bosch-proves the city’s readiness.

At Tanny Shelters, we are proud to contribute to this momentum. Our three upcoming IT parks-two in Saravanampatti and one after Othakalmandapam along Pollachi Main Road-will add 18 lakh square feet of commercial space, creating modern workplaces that balance professional growth with quality of life.

The state government’s proactive policies further enhance Coimbatore’s appeal. Incentives, SEZ support, and quicker approvals, coupled with excellent connectivity, affordable housing, and a clean, family-friendly environment, make the city an attractive long-term base for companies and employees alike.

India’s IT future will be shaped by multiple hubs, not one city alone. Coimbatore is positioning itself to lead this next phase of growth. With its unique blend of talent stability, cost advantages, and lifestyle benefits, it is no longer just an alternative-it is fast becoming a preferred destination for sustainable IT development.

As someone deeply invested in its progress, I believe Coimbatore’s time has truly come.

The LNJ Bhilwara Group organised a theatrical performance, Yugpurush, at Kamani Auditorium, New Delhi. Staged before a full-house capacity of 600, the play left the audience captivated throughout the evening.

Inspired by the life of Thakur Ramakrishna Paramahansa, Shri L.N. Jhunjhunwala, who has over 65 years of association with Ramakrishna Mission, envisioned a play that would portray the sacred bond between a guru and his disciple. He provided his guidance and worked closely with the writer and Director, J.P. Singh, in shaping the story. Yugpurush was performed by Rangbhoomi, a celebrated Delhi-based theatre group active since 1992, for staging a wide range of plays over the years.

LNJ Bhilwara Group organised a theatrical performance, Yugpurush, at Kamani Auditorium, New Delhi

This cultural initiative reflects the Group’s dedication to instilling the teachings of Thakur Ramakrishna while encouraging the tradition of Guru and disciple bond and preserving India’s spiritual heritage. By supporting theatre and similar programmes, the LNJ Bhilwara Group continues to create meaningful platforms that celebrate the nation’s cultural traditions and connect people with timeless values in an engaging way.

The performance traced the spiritual journey of Swami Vivekananda, focusing on the divine guidance he received from Thakur Ramakrishna, the revered spiritual master of the era, whose teachings profoundly shaped his ideas and philosophy. Central to this journey was Vivekananda’s enduring call, “Arise, awake and stop not till the goal is reached”, a message of awakening and perseverance that continues to inspire generations. The audience was drawn into a powerful narrative that brought alive the sacred Guru-Shishya tradition of India, where the Guru is honoured not merely as a teacher but as a divine force leading the disciple from ignorance to self-realisation.

Speaking on the occasion, ShriL.N.Jhunjhunwala said, “Itisgoodto see so many devotees and theatre enthusiasts gathered under one roof. Rangbhoomi had earlier beautifully portrayed the life of Shri Aurobindo, and with Yugpurush, they have once again brought history and spirituality to life. Swami Vivekananda’s message of self- discovery and service holds great relevance in today’s society, and wefeltitimportanttopresent this throughaplayatthisjuncture.”

The Group has previously hosted cultural events such as Nirjan Karaawas, Baji Prabho, and Bhawani Bharati at the Aurobindo Ashram, and last year presented Dakshineshwar – Ek Uttaran, Ek Samanway at the Shriram Auditorium in Delhi, marking the 96^th birthday of Shri L.N. Jhunjhunwala. Earlier this year, it also organised the annual Bhilwara Sur Sangam at Kamani Auditorium, a two-day classical music extravaganza under the honorable L.N. Jhunjhunwala’s patronage, which over the years has featured some of the most illustrious names in Indian classical music, including Vidushi Kishori Amonkar, Ustad Rashid Khan, Ustad Sujat Khan, Pt. Ajay-Kaushiki Chakraborty, Pt. Shiv Kumar Sharma and many others. This year’s edition brought together celebrated artistes such as Shri Purbayan Chatterjee, Pt. Sajan, Swaransh Mishra, Pt. Prattyush Banerjee, and Pt. Ulhas Kashalkar, drawing connoisseurs of music from across the city.

Yugpurush also stood out as one of J.P. Singh’s most accomplished productions, noted for its scale and attention to detail in set, light design, sound, and costumes. The three-layered stage created striking visual depth, particularly in the scene where Vivekananda realises the divinity of Ramakrishna Paramahansa, told through a mythical backstory. The performances were powerful and convincing, with strong casting that brought authenticity to the portrayal, while the musical renditions added a distinct spiritual resonance to the evening.
