Today afternoon, Mr B Ashok, Chairman Indian Oil Corporation laid the foundation stone of India's first Smart Retail Outlet at Action Area 3 of New Town.Mr Ashok publicly mentioned that while driving through New Town, it felt like being in a foreign country. I mentioned that I was happy that the first smart retail outlet was being set up by Indian Oil in Smart New Town.

The presentation showed the nature of the outlet to be built. Wi Fi, serviced and automatic non-serviced petrol pumps, robot cleaners of solar panels on roof, automatic dispensers, LCD displays, convenience stores, electric charging of electric vehicles, RFID tags, convenience store, and,most significantly, an aesthetically futuristic architecture. I mentioned that IOC could think of setting up their regional office headquarter in New Town.
