The main players in the diamond industry of Surat want to speed up the process of creating the Surat Diamond Bourse with additional funding so that the exchange can begin work in four years.
Representatives of diamond companies are going to send a preliminary application for funding the project to the government of the Indian state of Gujarat.
The purpose of the exchange will be to attract buyers from all over the world to Surat for business and diamond trading on a single site.
As part of the creation of a new trading platform, a complex of 22 interconnected buildings with a height of more than 20 floors will be built, which will accommodate more than 10 thousand offices of various companies.
The Gujarat Infrastructure Development Board will launch a special three-stage project development program in which the Surat Diamond Exchange will be the leading company.
