Aravakurichi, situated on National Highway 7, is not far from Karur, which is known for housing a number of industrial units including home textiles and bus body building. However, industrialisation that is witnessed in Karur has not spread to Aravakurichi constituency except blue metal mining at Thennilai and K. Paramathi and Tamil Nadu Newsprint and Paper Ltd at Pugalur.
The constituency that begins from Aravakurichi and Pallapatty in the south extends up to Velayuthampalayam in the north. While most parts of Aravakurichi and K. Paramathi unions have parched lands and rocky terrains, Velayuthampalayam is blessed with fertile lands.
