It pre- dominantly invests in the infrastructure sector, with the government spending more on the same and foreign investments coming into Indian infrastructure companies. Infrastructure spending has witnessed a sharp acceleration, with most of the segments in the economy constrained in terms of capacity availability. Riding on the back of the fourth consecutive year of 8%+ GDP growth, a balanced increase in the gross capital formation (GCF) in infrastructure as a proportion of GDP emerges as the most important key in sustaining high economic growth. Currently, the GCFI is at 5% of GDP. As per the Planning Commission, the GCFI need to be increased to 9% of the GDP to sustain growth momentum in the economy.

Infrastructure sector plays important role in country’s development and GDP growth. India has already negotiated the difficult transition from public infrastructure creation to a market determined model. This will give room for more rural developments and spending.
