Market Report, "India Infrastructure Report Q3 2016", published

We maintain our positive forecast for India's construction industry , underpinned by the government's plans to promote ambitious expansion across all sectors, backed by policy reform. The growth in the sector will be driven by the industrial and commercial construction and the transport sector , and persistent regulatory challenges combined with high levels of bureaucracy will continue to pose major risks to our outlook.

Latest Updates & Structural Trends

India's construction sector will expand throughout our forecast period up to 2025, posting 6.6% real growth in 2016 and averaging annual growth of 6.4% over 10 years. The government's plans to revitalise the PPP framework under the FY2016/17 Union Budget bode well for the sector.

The residential and non-residential sector will record the highest average growth. Commercial and industrial construction will remain the main driver of this growth and the government will need to attract substantial foreign direct investment to achieve some of its ambitious plans, particularly in the residential sector.

Road and rail projects will dominate transport sector growth, with an increased use of public-private partnerships. The expansion in the energy and utilities sector will be driven by the construction of coal-fired and hydroelectric power plants, the development of the solar power sector and the increased investment opportunities in water infrastructure.

Risk/Reward Index

India comes 8th out of 21 countries in our Asia Pacific RRI, with an overall score of 61.3 out of 100.

India's infrastructure industry is set to expand impressively over the long term, given the government's efforts to attract capital for multibillion-dollar investments in transport, energy, utilities and urban infrastructure.

While regulatory challenges will persist, with the country's fragmented administrative structure, gradual reforms to improve the investment environment will remain a top priority of the Modi administration.
