Besides being home to India’s second largest bourse, the Calcutta Stock Exchange, the city is well connected – it boasts a large commercial and military port, as well as an international airport. Home to India’s largest Chinatown, Kolkata offers attractive incentives for growth of industrial activities in and around the city.
