    <fulldesc>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hyderabad, Mar 7 (KNN)&lt;/strong&gt; Less than three months after signing a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Telangana government, Lenskart has begun construction of the worlds largest eyewear manufacturing facility in Tukkuguda, on the outskirts of Hyderabad.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The new factory, similar to Lenskarts facility in Bhiwadi, Rajasthan, will be an integrated unit handling frame, lens, and eyewear production.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Designed to serve both domestic and international markets, the facility will enhance Lenskarts manufacturing capacity to cater to India, Asia, and the Middle East.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Lenskart co-founder Amit Chaudhary led the groundbreaking ceremony in the presence of Telangana Industries Minister Duddilla Sridhar Babu.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The project is expected to create over 2,100 jobs and will span 50 acres. The first phase is set to become operational by the end of 2025, with the plant eventually producing over 200,000 glasses per day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Lenskart CEO and co-founder Peyush Bansal emphasized the project's significance, stating, This facility will not only help meet the growing demand for eyewear but also create new opportunities through technology and innovation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The Telangana government highlighted that the investment reinforces the state's growing status as a hub for global industries.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Minister Sridhar Babus office noted that the plant will leverage cutting-edge technology and precision engineering to ensure high-quality production and international trade expansion.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;This strategic collaboration between Lenskart and the Telangana government marks a significant step in strengthening Indias position in the global eyewear market.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
