Infrastructures and Construction

Construction and public works remain one of the main drivers of our economy, driven by the large infrastructure needs and rapid urbanisation after a temporary slowdown in real estate due to the implementation of economic reforms.

India is expected to have 68 cities with more than one million inhabitants by 2030 and the urban population is expected to increase by 200 million people between 2015 and 2035. Some $1.2 trillion will be invested in cities by 2030, including through the SmartCityVision programme. Most of the growth in construction, however, will come from infrastructure, the improvement of which is crucial to the economy.

As for the residential construction sector, after a slowdown, the recovery is going smoothly.
There is a "growing awareness" of environmental issues which is reorienting the market towards thermal comfort, to save energy, and then towards acoustic comfort. Finally, home automation (lighting, security, air conditioning) is beginning to develop in both residential and commercial buildings.
