8 INDUSTRY OUTLOOK Construction Industry in India The construction industry in India is the second largest economic activity after agriculture and provides employment to large amount of people. Broadly, construction can be classified into two segments infrastructure and real estate. The infrastructure segment involves construction projects in different sectors like roads, rails, ports, irrigation, power, etc. Investment in the infrastructure sector plays a crucial role in the growth of the economy of the country. Development of infrastructure in the country mainly depends upon the spending by GoI in various sub-segments of infrastructure. Characteristics of Construction Industry Highly fragmented Labour intensive Working capital intensive Close linkage with economic growth Rising trend of Joint ventures Low mechanisation levels compared with global standards Varied gestation period and profitability across different construction projects. The real estate industry comprising construction and development of properties has grown from family-based entities with focus on single products and having one market presence into corporate entities with multi-city presence having differentiated products. The industry has witnessed considerable shift from traditional financing methods and limited debt support to an era of structured finance, private equity and public offering. The construction sector is a major employment driver, being the second largest employer in the country, next only to agriculture. This is because of the chain of backward and forward linkages that the sector has with other sectors of the economy. About 250 ancillary industries such as cement, steel, brick, and timber and building material are dependent on the construction industry. A unit increase in expenditure in this sector has a multiplier effect and the capacity to generate income as high as five times. Outlook for construction industry The Government of India has given importance to infrastructure spending, which has widened the growth opportunity for players in EPC segment. The Planning Commission has envisaged an outlay of about $500 bn during the 11th five year plan for infrastructure development in the country. In the 12th five year plan, the infrastructure spending is going to get doubled to touch at $1025 bn, which is 10% of GDP compared with average yield of 7.55% of GDP in 11th plan and 5% of GDP 10th plan. Growth drivers are: Increased government spending on infrastructure. Key constituent for sustainable economic development. 6 This report has been sponsored by BSE Investors Protection Fund
