2. INRRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT
India’s first operational smart
city and international financial
service Centre.
Gujrat International Finance
Tec-City (GIFT City) is the CBD
(Central Business District) that
will serve as a paradigm for next
class city in terms of
quality of lifeInfrastructure and
ambience aiming to be high-
density and high rise, treating
land as a precious resource.
It is designed as a hub for the
global financial service sector;
more particularly, state-of-the-
art connectivity, infrastructure
and transportation access have
been integrated into the design
of the city.

3. Locality and Relevance
of the Project
•The GIFT City is located on the banks
of Sabarmati River.
•GIFT City is strategically located
between Ahmedabad and
Gandhinagar at a distance of twelve
kms from sardar Vallabhbhai Patel
International Airport and 8 kms from
Gandhinagar.
•The site is in close proximate to the
National Highway (NH-48).
•GIFT is easily accessible from all
direction through 4-6 lane State and
National Highways

§GIFT City is conceptualized as a global
financial and IT services hub, designed to be at
or above par with globally benchmark financial
centres such as Shinjuku, Lujiazui, La Defense,
London Dockyards, etc.

6. Distinct Features of the Project
The city has an integrated development model which has been spread out in three phases. Each
phase is designed as integrated sustainable development, for example the first phase itself includes
development of office space, residential, school, hotel, club etc. The salient features of the project
are:
•The 400MW electricity supply is planned to be 9.99% reliable (about 5.3 minutes of outage per
year). All the electricity cables are laid in the Utility Tunnel in dry area protected by thick concrete
wall in redundant paths.
•Natural Gas is distributed to every house and building via pipes, which is cheaper and safer than
cylinders.
•India's first city-level DCS (district cooling system) is operational at GIFT City.
•All waste in the city are collected and taken to processing plant by vacuum chutes installed at
every floor of all buildings.

7. Challenges Involved
•Land scarcity and a potentially large population means that people will need to live more vertical than they have traditionally.
•The multiple permits required by various level of government are slowing down the process of creating the city.
•Trying to involve the public to help determine the order of development has been difficult and time consuming.
•Attracting financing has been a challenge, as money is attracted to a success story that has already been built, rather than a computer model.

19. Pre-construction phase
The idea for GIFT was conceived during theVibrant Gujrat Global
Summit2007 and the initial planning was done by East China Architectural
Design & Research Institute (ECADI), which is credited with planning of much
of modern-dayShanghai.
GIFT City’s Master Plan is for the 359 hectares (886 acres) of land area to have
approximately ~110 buildings with ~5,800,000m2(62,000,000sq.ft) of built-
up area, of which around 67% is commercial, 22% is for residential and 11% is
social facilities.

20. Continued
Government of Gujrat earmarked 886 acres of land for GIFT
Project, out of 886 Acre; 673 Acre of land is in possession of GIFT.
IL&FS Township & Urban Asset Limited (ITUAL) has taken 7.77 mn
sq. ft of Built Up Area (BUA) in Phase I of GIFT Project.
Inauguration of "GIFT ONE" Gujarat's tallest tower in GIFT City by
Hon'ble Chief Minister Narendra Modi, on 10 January 2013.

21. construction phase
•Phase1: Two commercial towers, each of 28 floors called the GIFT
ONE and GIFT TWO have been finished. Tendering for the next
bunch of towers is going on. This phase will also include building up
of basic infrastructure.
•Phase2: The second phase construction has already begun, and the
Hiranandani Signature building has been built which hosts India
International exchange. The WTC is under construction apart from a
couple of buildings as part of the SEZ. The road connectivity to and
in GIFT City has increased with the construction of new roads.

22. CURRENT STATUS OF Construction

23. CONTINUED
Currently 10 buildings are operational .Another 05 buildings are under
construction.
A world class Corporate Club named ' GIFT Club ' is operational and very
popular in the vicinity.
Public infrastructure in GIFT CITY is based on concept of 'Predictive
Maintenance'.
Phase 1 of development has been completed in the year 2017. Second
phase of development is under progress.
The World Trade Centre -GIFT City, is final phase of completion for financial
and allied services. The centre will connect businesses around 343 locations
worldwide.
India's biggest real estate developer Shobha Developer is constructing
premium housing in GIFT City . This will be 32 storied building with world
class amenities.

24. Challenges and Risks Involved
There has been a lot of action behind the scenes to make Gift City work. The Securities & Exchange Board of
India (SEBI) permitted alternate investment funds (AIFs), such as private equity funds and venture funds, to
operate out of Gift City’s IFSC. This will give it a boost; but new investors are unlikely to rush in, unless they see
evidence of a genuine clean-up. Here is what the Gujarat government needs to do to make the GIFT City work:
•It needs to start by separating infrastructure development (find a new partner to replace IL&FS) from IFSC.
•If the IL&FS board could be sacked, one wonders what is stopping the Gujarat government from doing the
same with the messed-up GIFT City’s as well as IFSC’s boards and put in place a transparent and credible
management.
•If the Gujarat government intends to attract global investment, it needs to address the issues raised by Mr
Anjaria’s PIL and persuade him to withdraw it and re-start on a clean slate

25. Cont.…..
•GIFT City and IFSC need to be brought under the ambit of the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) of India and the Right to Information Act (RTI), since there is a substantial investment by the state in terms of land value. This was deliberately obfuscated in the 50:50 joint venture (JV) with IL&FS.
•In May 2012, the state government received an extensive report from GIFT City’s audit committee, documenting irregularities and defaults by IL&FS’s entities. Subsequently, more facts and details have been provided to the government by gathering information under RTI. All these must be handed over to the SFIO for its investigation and action.
•As per the JV contract, GIFT City itself to pay the Gujarat government 1% of the income from sale of development rights as a premium. Since the value of development rights sold are approximately Rs.8,000 crore, payment of Rs.80 crore or so is due; this has not been paid.

26. Risk

28. Green Building Initiatives
Green Building (also known as sustainable building) refers to both a structure
and the using of processes that are environmentally responsible and resource
efficient throughout a building's life cycle: from design, construction,
operation, maintenance, renovation, and demolition.
It also has incorporated green and sustainability measures in terms of :
•reduction of wastage of energy, which will result in reduced energy bills,
•Construction of sky gardens or roof-top gardens,
•Increase in usage of non-conventional energy sources such as solar power,
and also rainwater harvesting,
•Planning and design according to climate,
•Other Green Building parameters such as structural design efficiency,
materials efficiency, materials efficiency, indoor environmental quality
enhancement, operations & maintenance optimization and waste reduction.

30. Water Supply and Sewerage Systems
The water requirement for the GIFT city is 20 MGD. The water sources from which GIFT draws its water are ;
•Narmada Main Canal,
•Recycling and reuse of wastewater, and
•Rainwater Harvesting. This has resulted in the city receiving 24x7 water supply.

31. CONT. …
•The concept of “zero
discharge city” has been
implemented, in which the
wastewater is treated and
reused, which results in
maximum utilization of
water.

32. District cooling
(Centralized AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM)
•Conventional AC System not required
•Efficiency through economics of scale
•Reduces energy cost
•Reduces maintenance cost
•Improve air quality and temperature control
•Reduces noise and vibration
•Total capacity: 325,000 TR

33. Solid Waste Management
•Automated Waste Collection System (AWS) through chute system
•Minimum Human Intervention
•Minimize space requirement
•Minimize impact on health
•Waste sucked through pipes at a speed of 90 km/hr
•Waste Treatment through Plasma Technology

34. INTEGRATED UNDERGROUND SERVICE
TRENCHES
•Segregation of services at 4-level
•Supply of services in sub-surface regular grid
•Buildings to tap in the grid whenever required
•All service housed in various divisions of sub-surface ditch
•No service line above ground

35. Transportation
•The transportation is
planned in such a way that it
will encourage the reduction
of greenhouse gas emissions
from the vehicles in GIFT. It
aims at zero accidents.

36. CONT. ..
•GIFT City is based on Transit Oriented Development approach where metro stations are strategically located at the centre of high-
density commercial development with progressively lower-density development spreading outward from the centre.
•GIFT City transport plan envisages a modal split of 10:90 between private and public transport. However the system has been
designed as 25%, private instead of 10%, so that a buffer is inbuilt into the system. To meet the envisaged public transport share and
considering the prevailing conditions GIFT started its own public transport facility.
•Its proposed to develop MLPs with total capacity of 50,000 ECS in GIFT. People coming by private vehicles can walk to their
destinations after leaving their vehicles in these MLPs which are located strategically near the entry points on either side of the road.
•Proposed smart transportation applications in GIFT City improve transport outcomes such as transport safety, transport productivity,
travel reliability, informed travel choices, environmental performance and network operation resilience
•GIFT City transport master plan addresses the needs of all users of GIFT City, thereby it can be called as "User-Centred Smart
Transport System" and its makes it possible for all GIFT City users to enjoy a world class life style in this vibrant Global City.

37. Transport NETWORK
GIFT aims at providing a
transportation network that
ensures accessibility, easy and
fast mobility and accidental free
traffic. This is being achieved by:
Using a multimodal mix of
transport systems
(MRTS/LRTS/BRTS, etc.) for both
intercity transport (to
Ahmedabad, Airport, and
Gandhinagar) and intra-city
transport.
Using a walk-to-work concept as
part of urban planning with a
nodal split of 10:90 between
private and public transport.
Use of electricpersonal rapid
transportsystems within the city.
GIFT City will also have its own
metro stations and will be
connected toAhmedabad metro
network by March 2024.
Indian railways lines pass the city
on the east and west sides; the
closest stations are inDabhoda
andNaroda.

38. CONCLUSION
•As far as sustainability is concerned, GIFT reflects a sophisticated planning approach to ensure irrigation of Environmental concern and Green buildings, optimum uses of energy, water and construction materials.
•The project regenerates the area as high quality, mixed use district of commercial, residential and open space facility that optimize land and real estate values.
•Various methods and technologies which have been implemented and utilized in GIFT for sustainable development of project.
•GIFT stand as a model of for successful sustainable development of industrial and commercial areas, and it will be seen in the future as a model, based on which the development of other smart cities will take place.
