The Phase 1 campus is fully developed spread over a 101 acres (40.9 ha) with more than 7×10^6 sq ft (650×10^3 m2) of operational built-up space. Infopark Phase II is spread over 160 acres (64.7 ha) of campus area which would have a total built-up space of 8×10^6 sq ft (740×10^3 m2) upon completion and is expected to employ more than 100,000 professionals.

The notable tenants in the park include Indian technology giants like Tata Consultancy Services, Wipro, HCL Technologies, Tech Mahindra, LTIMindtree, UST Global, and foreign corporations like IBM, Cognizant, KPMG, Ernst & Young, IQVIA, Xerox, Conduent, NOV, Invesco, EXL Service, Hubbell, Alight, Nielsen, Geodis and Buck.

The Infopark campus currently has 9.2×10^6 sq ft (850×10^3 m2) of built-up area and is the major contributor of IT export revenue from the state of Keralam. IT exports from Infopark which stood at ₹32 billion (US$330 million) in 2016–17, doubled in a period of 4 years, rising to ₹63.1 billion (US$660 million) in 2020–21. A huge real estate boom was triggered soon after Infopark started to attract big MNCs from around the globe. Infopark changed the landscape and lifestyle of Kochi, particularly the Kakkanad area. A new culture got evolved and more and more commercial and residential ventures started to rise up which then extended the limits of Kochi city to further north end.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “InfoPark Kochi”, the useful work is to connect “iT Park situated in Kochi, India” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

The strongest evidence will usually combine a dated visual record with documents produced by the authority responsible for the place. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 16, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2003162. None of the 2 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2004, 2025, 2016 and 2020.

Critical limits

Modern boundaries and familiar names can conceal earlier jurisdictions or structures that do not align with the present site. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
