A 3-million-tonne cement factory and a Coca-Cola franchisee bottling plant were inaugurated in the Brahmapur Industrial Area.
The two units together cost about ₹1,700 crore. The cement plant's annual capacity of three million tonnes is expected to improve the availability of construction materials in Bihar and neighbouring states.
Officials linked the investment to incentives under the state's new industrial policy, aimed at attracting large enterprises and creating jobs.
