IIP's new branch in Bangalore will be set up at Sompura Industrial Estate in Dobaspet for which the Karnataka government has allotted four acres land, business-standard.com reported.
The institute will initially spend Rs50m ($0.94m) to set up packaging institute in Bangalore, of which Rs50,00,000 would come from the central government.
