According to the final master plan of the state Government, Mohali will be developed in phases. Reason: simultaneous treatment of the entire 16674-hectare area, marked for development, will be neither feasible nor desirable.

The phasing plan, the copy of the master plan says, has been designed to ensure that the development of land within the local planning area is well-coordinated and involves minimum investments on the provision of infrastructure.

Considering their potential to spearhead IT growth, education and business tourism in the region, the Airport City, Knowledge City, Business and Hi-tech Parks have been earmarked for the first phase of development.
