The execution of Angul-Sukinda new line project is being done by a SPV named “Angul- Sukinda Railway Limited (ASRL)” under participative scheme of Ministry of Railways.
Waterways Connectivity
To improve waterways connectivity between Kalinganagar and Paradeep andDhamra Ports, a Detailed Project Report (DPR) for the development of National Waterway - 5 (including above stretches) in Odisha has been undertaken and development of an Inland Water Transport (IWT) terminal in the south of KNIMZ near Pankapal village has been planned to meet external infrastructure linkages requirement for NIMZ at Kalinganagar, Jajpur district in Odisha.
Paradip Port has developed a new berth of capacity 5 MMTPA with Ancillary Facilities for handling clean cargo, including containers. The facilities at the Terminal include 450M Berth, paved storage area of about 1 Lakh SQM and a warehouse complex of 600M x 40M with handling equipment like HMCS and RTGS. This berth can be utilized by the industries in Kalinganagar Industrial Zone for export of their finished products.

Quote:National Investment and Manufacturing Zone (NIMZ), Kalinganagar
98% of chromite, 55% of bauxite and 33% of iron ore deposits of India are in Odisha. To leverage on this advantage and encourage investments in the manufacturing sector, the State has envisaged this "National Investment and Manufacturing Zone (NIMZ)" at Kalinganagar and is determined to create state-of-the-art infrastructure and enabling industrial-urbanism, catering to metal and manufacturing industry.
The project is spread over an area of 40,339 acres which already boasts of large integrated steel plants with support infrastructure. An estimated investment of over $15.21 billion is expected to be made in this Zone. Availability of diverse and large mineral reserves of aluminium, chrome and other feedstock will enable the potential investors for setting up of their industries with focus on Auto ancillaries, component manufacturing, Equipment/process manufacturing, heavy fabrication, downstream steel industries etc.
The Zone shall also have exclusive areas earmarked to be developed as downstream/ancillary industrial parks, which will thrive on the available feedstock. The development of these parks and the supporting physical and social infrastructure shall be carried out on PPP basis providing significant opportunities for the developers.

Odisha trying for a machine tools park at NIMZ. Following is an excerpt from https://tathya.in/?p=6384 .
Quote:Machine Tool Project Awaits Approval
By Tathya Correspondent - April 4, 2021
... Notably, State Government on request of the Union Government to set up a dedicated Machine Tool Park in the NIZM Kalinganagar, had presented a proposal for a machine tool park spread across 100 acre to the Union Government’s Department of Heavy Industries (DoHI) along with another proposal for a Center of Excellence on 10 acres.
... Both the projects will cost Rs.281 crore– Machine Tool Park Rs.156 Crore and Center of Excellance Rs.125 crore.
The Machine Tool Park is expected to have more than 58 units of machine tool industries, producers of accessories, attachments and service providers to the industry.
The main focus of the park will be on machine tools, tooling, dies and moulds; the heavy electrical equipment sector; the mining and construction equipment segment; the process plant equipment sector; and metallurgical machinery, including steel plant equipment. Other focus sectors would be plastics processing machinery and textile & jute machinery.
Around 80 per cent of this cost will come in as grant from the Centre and the rest to be borne by the State Government.
... It has perennial 215 MLD water source, 13,687 acre of industry-ready unencumbered land parcels, quality power connection through dedicated industrial feeders, perennial water supply from adjacent Brahmani river, robust infrastructure framework for solid waste and sewerage, logistics hub with common warehousing unit, upcoming mega industrial township to accommodate 25,000- 50,000 workers with social infrastructure, said sources, adding Machine Tool Park with Centre of Excellence will go a long way in boosting the industrial scenario.
