## Description

Denim and steel are Ballari's stock in trade: the Karnataka city stitches a large share of India's jeans, and JSW's Vijayanagar works nearby ranks among the country's biggest steel plants. Bellary Airport (BEP) plays only a side role in those supply chains – it has seen intermittent scheduled flights to Bengaluru, most recently with Star Air, alongside corporate and charter traffic. There are no freight facilities; ore and steel leave by rail towards the seaports, while urgent air cargo is trucked to Bengaluru (BLR), roughly 300 km south. The UNESCO ruins of Hampi lie within day-trip distance.
