Direct Answer: The Kadakola and Nanjangud industrial corridor south of Mysuru along NH 766 is one of Karnataka’s largest manufacturing belts. Anchored by TVS Motor Company’s flagship two-wheeler assembly plant, Nestlé, Jubilant Generics, and the state’s modern Inland Container Depot (ICD) at Kadakola, the corridor powers regional industrial exports.

Spanning 20 kilometers south of Mysuru along the highway to Ooty and Kerala, the Kadakola-Nanjangud industrial belt is the industrial engine of Southern Karnataka.

Fed by the perennial waters of the Kapila (Kabini) river and supported by dedicated dual-track rail lines and container dry ports, this zone generates thousands of manufacturing livelihoods.
