About 10 memorandums of understanding are expected to be signed, covering advanced manufacturing, green energy, connectivity, skills training, digitalization, healthcare, and sustainability.

Strengthening Strategic Links

In Maharashtra, Singapore’s CapitaLand Investment has committed ₹192 billion (about $2.19 billion) by 2030 for commercial real estate projects in Mumbai and Pune, including business parks, data centers, logistics hubs, and industrial parks.

Diplomatic Momentum

The ISMR brings together India’s key ministers in External Affairs, Finance, Commerce, and Railways & IT with a six-member Singapore delegation led by Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong. The discussions aim to advance bilateral cooperation in trade, investment, and emerging technologies.
