Aurangabad (renamed Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar in September 2023) anchors the Marathwada economy with 3,400+ industrial units employing over 200,000 workers across automotive, pharmaceuticals and textiles. Its MIDC estates at Waluj, Shendra and Chikalthana host Bajaj Auto, Skoda, Audi India, Siemens, Wockhardt, Ajanta Pharma and Lupin. The flagship AURIC smart city spans 10,000 acres on the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor, targeting roughly $11.6 billion in exports.
Startup Ecosystem: Aurangabad's growth story is now investment-led: Toyota Kirloskar signed an MoU in 2024 to build an EV plant at Bidkin (AURIC) with reported investment near Rs 20,000 crore, capacity of around 100,000 cars a year and roughly 16,000 jobs. Godawari New Energy and Sango India have committed thousands of crores more in Bidkin. Statewide, Maharashtra leads India with 29,000+ DPIIT-recognised startups, about 18% of the national total.

With your finances handled by experts, you're free to innovate, expand, and achieve your business dreams.
A full-time CFO in a manufacturing hub like Aurangabad can cost Rs 35-75 lakh a year once salary, bonus and equity are added. A Virtual CFO gives you the same senior expertise for a fraction of that. EaseUp engagements typically range from about Rs 40,000 to Rs 2,00,000 per month, depending on the complexity of your operations, number of entities, transaction volume and whether you need active fundraising support. An early-stage textile or services firm sits at the lower end, while a multi-plant auto-ancillary or pharma exporter with GST, export and ROC complexity sits higher. You get a senior team, not one hire, and scale the engagement up or down as needs change. Book a free 30-minute consultation for a precise quote.
