Jamnagar, located in Gujarat, is notable for housing the world's largest crude oil refinery, transforming India into a net exporter of petroleum products. The region's economy is supported by various sectors including brass products, petrochemicals, and real estate, driven by significant investments in Special Economic Zones (SEZs). This growth has spurred real estate development and increased rental prices, with projects catering to the rising demand from both local and NRI populations.
