The project, targeted to be completed in 2022, will cost Rs 277 crore. The ground plus 11 storey building with 3 basements, will have a total built-up area of 45,675 square metres.
Apart from offices, the building will have an auditorium, conference hall, barracks for accommodating subordinate staff, guest rooms and a gymnasium.
