CPCL ranked ahead of Pentacle Consultants (78), L&T Infrastructure Engineering (76), MSV International Technology (74) and Transys Consulting (72). The ranking, released in the fourth week of January 2026, marks NHAI’s first transparent evaluation framework aimed at enhancing DPR quality under Bharatmala and other national highway programmes.

Financial and Growth Performance

The company reported revenue exceeding $10 million in FY 2024–25 and achieved a five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 28.2 per cent, significantly above the industry average.
