   Jointly
developed by two Tamil Nadu government agencies—TIDCO and ELCOT—Tidel
Park Chennai was built by Hyundai Engineering and Construction Company, South
Korea. A reasonably new campus inaugurated only in 2000, the park has 1.28
million sq ft of built-up area—all of it occupied.
Prominent clients at the facility include EDS, Tata Consultancy Services,
Computer Associates, Verizon and Cognizant Technology Solutions. A key advantage
is proximity to both the city center and the airport, an excellent IT
infrastructure with huge bandwidth (an 8.4-Tbps submarine cable from
Bhrati-Singtel and Dishnet DSL’s new 7.68-Tbps, which will be commissioned
soon). In addition, the park offers international digital leased lines of 64
Kbps and above. It has a 110/33kV dedicated sub-station, central
air-conditioning from ETA Dubai, a 650-seat auditorium, an 18,500 sq ft food
court, recreational facilities, and other amenities like ATMs. A key
disadvantage—while bandwidth is not an issue, parking for employees is
expensive and restricted.
