Our Mission

The concept of setting up of 100 new towns was conceived by the Planning Commission in the 9th Five Year Plan Document of Government of India. In view of this, Government of West Bengal (GoWB) had initially prepared concept plans for development of new town in the eastern side of the city of Calcutta comprising parts of North and South 24 Parganas and some Mouzas of Bhangar-II block of South 24 Pgs.

New Town, Kolkata has a well-planned road network, green bodies, modern drainage & sewerage system and communication network. To achieve that objective of Green Smart City, NTTIDCO was formed for preparing telecom ducts infrastructure within underground utility tunnels all around New Town to make it free of overhead hanging wires (Optical Fibre, telephone lines & Telecom operators cable etc.)

Genesis of NTTIDCO:

The township is comprised of well-planned road network, green bodies, modern drainage & sewerage system and communication network. To achieve that objective NTTIDCO a subsidiary of HIDCO was formed in 23rd May, 2006, where HIDCO has contributed a share capital of Rs 53.55 Lakh (51%) for laying underground ducts all around New Town to make it free of overhead hanging wires (Cable television, telecom and multi-system operators pay rent for using the conduits).

Connectivity has now reached at most of the buildings, which are either already completed or near completion stage based on demand raised, and that particular emphasis was given towards connectivity of IT Park with the ring formation to ensure greater availability and alternate routing. Now that almost all Service Operators in the field of Telecom and allied services have utilized such connectivity by consuming about 1240.146 duct K.M. Total road covered in New Town is 177.582 Km. as on 31-03-2022.
