Infrastructure Projects face Rs 4.82 trillion cost overrun

In December, a total of 431 infrastructure projects in India faced a cost overrun of Rs 4.82 trillion, according to reports. These projects, primarily focused on urban infrastructure development, experienced financial challenges that have raised concerns about their timely completion and overall economic impact.

The significant cost overruns indicate potential delays and increased financial burden on the government and stakeholders involved.

This development underscores the complexities and challenges faced in the execution of large-scale infrastructure initiatives.

The details of the projects and the reasons behind the cost overruns are crucial aspects that need further examination to formulate effective strategies for better project management and financial control.

The findings highlight the need for enhanced scrutiny, transparency, and accountability in the planning and execution of infrastructure projects to ensure efficient utilisation of resources and timely delivery.
