After foraying into the telecommunications and thermal power sectors, Venugopal N Dhoot, chairman and managing director (CMD), Videocon Industries today said the group is sewing up plans to enter into hospitality and hydropower. The company is in talks with the Uttarakhand government for various projects.
A five star hotel and construction of a Dehra Dun-Mussoorie ropeway are the immediate proposals of the company in the hill state. Besides this, Videocon is also interested in acquiring a heritage building in a Mussoorie hill resort.
Videocon is eyeing for ten acres of land for the construction of five or seven star hotel on the foothills of Mussoorie. An amusement park is also on the cards near the proposed hotel.
As far as hydropower is concerned, Videocon expects to produce nearly 2,000 mw in the first phase of the plan. Already, company officials have held talks with the top state government authorities. The company has also held talks with the Uttarakhand Power Corporation (UPCL) for selling the power.
