Infosys announces campus expansion in Mohali with Rs. 286 Crore investment, 2,700 jobs expected

IT services company Infosys has initiated the expansion of its campus in Mohali with a new project estimated to involve an investment of about ₹286 crore. The development is expected to create approximately 2,700 employment opportunities once completed.

The ground-breaking ceremony for the expansion was attended by Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, who highlighted the potential of the project to strengthen the region’s role in the technology sector. According to officials, the expanded facility will support the company’s operations and contribute to the growth of the IT and services ecosystem in the state.

Mohali, which is part of the tri-city region along with Chandigarh and Panchkula, has emerged in recent years as an important hub for information technology companies and startups in northern India. Industry observers note that infrastructure development and the presence of several technology parks have helped attract investments from both domestic and multinational firms.

The new expansion project is expected to add workspace and technology infrastructure that could accommodate a larger workforce and support various technology services operations. While the company has not publicly detailed the project timeline, the investment signals continued interest in expanding IT operations in tier-two cities.

Officials say that such investments can help generate employment opportunities for local graduates and strengthen the region’s technology ecosystem. At the same time, analysts note that the long-term impact will depend on the pace of project completion, the scale of hiring and broader industry growth. With several IT companies exploring expansion beyond major metropolitan areas, cities like Mohali are increasingly being considered for technology infrastructure and workforce development.
