Tweaking BOT model can drive up investments worth Rs.40-50 trillion

Reworking of the build-operate-transfer (BOT) model may drive up investments worth Rs.40-50 trillion in the road sector in the current financial year, India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra) said.

Revival of the BOT model, with features that provide significant risk mitigation compared to the earlier model, is likely to increase the share of these projects from FY25.

Ind-Ra estimates capex requirements under this model to range between Rs.0.4 trillion-0.5 trillion in FY25 and the agency believes it would rise steadily to Rs.1 trillion by 2030.

The ratings agency said that revamping of the BOT model is a tactical move to attract private capex, which is estimated to surpass Rs.1 trillion by 2030.

While revamping of the BOT model is a welcome change, the impact of evolving infrastructure landscape such as competing roads and alternate modes of transportation (dedicated freight corridor and inland waterways) in bolstering BOT model remains to be seen.

Creativity is for Humans, Productivity is for Robots!

On most construction sites, the rhythm of progress is measured by the clang of steel, the hum of machinery and the sweat of thousands. But increasingly, new sounds are entering the mix: the quiet efficiency of algorithms, the hum of drones overhead, and the precision of robotic arms at work. Behind the concrete and cables, an invisible force is taking hold: data. It is turning blueprints into living simulations, managing fleets of machines, and helping engineers make decisions before a single brick is laid. This is not the construction of tomorrow; it is the architecture of today – built on ..
