Over the past few years Budge Budge has developed considerably in terms of lifestyle and infrastructure. Major projects include [[Calcutta Riverside]], widening of the Budge Budge Trunk (BBT) Road and the starting of the 7.7&nbsp;km [[Batanagar Flyover]] from Jinjira Bazar to [[Batanagar]].<ref>{{cite news |last1=Chakraborty |first1=Ajanta |title=Decks cleared for Batanagar flyover |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/Decks-cleared-for-Batanagar-flyover/articleshow/28910539.cms |access-date=3 March 2021 |work=The Times of India |date=17 January 2014 |language=en}}</ref>
 
Budge Budge owes much of its importance to the port, oil storage and [[jute]] mills. Being close to [[Kolkata]] and on the shores of the [[Hooghly River]] makes it a strategic location for oil storage and is the biggest oil storage for the metropolis [[Calcutta]] with big [[Public Sector Undertaking|PSUs]] like Petroleum Wharves Budge Budge under [[Kolkata Port Trust]]. BPCL, HPCL, IOC having large units there. Jute mills were the biggest employers in the area till they started falling sick. Prominent among them are New Central Jute Mill and Budge Budge Jute Mills. At their height before 1971 these jute mills used to employ thousands of workers (New Central Jute Mills has been said to have employed as many as twenty thousand people) but after the [[partition of India]] and the subsequent creation of [[Bangladesh]], supply of raw materials for these jute mills decreased. This, along with failure of trade unions lead to the closing of most of these jute mills.
 
The Budge Budge Thermal Power Station set up by [[CESC Limited|CESC]] in Achipur (named after a [[Han Chinese|Chinese]] called Achhu saheb by the locals who had established a sugar cane unit there) is a major source of electricity for [[Kolkata]] and its suburbs.
