India Construction Market - Growth, Trends, COVID-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2022 - 2027)
The Indian construction market is expected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 11% during the forecast period. The government construction projects are majorly providing a thrust to the rising Indian construction industry. The Indian construction sector has witnessed both disruptions as well as optimism with many reforms being implemented. Rapidly evolving technology is redefining how construction business is conducted and managed in India.
In the fiscal year 2020, the real gross value added in the construction industry across India increased by around 1.3 percent. This was a decline in the GVA growth compared to the previous year. Due to the impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the GVA of the construction industry is estimated to decrease by 12.6 percent in the financial year 2021. Government initiatives, such as the construction of 100 smart cities, world-class highways and shipping infrastructure, housing, and urban development, have attracted large amounts of investment through foreign direct investment, private enterprises, and government budgets.
Key Market TrendsGovernment Schemes and FDI Inflows are Driving the MarketGovernment initiatives such as the government’s flagship scheme Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana aims to build 20 million urban homes and 30 million rural houses by 2022. Smart Cities and government schemes are fuelling the growth of urban infrastructure and construction development. Recently the construction of an additional 3,21,567 affordable houses was sanctioned under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana. The construction and infrastructure sector has received FDI inflows amounting to USD 105 million and USD 617 million, respectively from 2017 to 2020. In March 2021, the construction sector in India saw a foreign direct investment equity inflow of approximately 420 million USD. This was a significant decrease compared to the equity inflows in the previous year, valued at over 600 million USD.
COVID-19 impact on Indian Construction IndustryIndia is expected to become the world’s third-largest construction market by 2025. The Indian construction industry is expected to grow in the forecasted period. However, the outbreak of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and subsequent lockdown restrictions weighed on the industry’s output in 2020. Construction activities continue to remain disrupted across the country with labor shortages at project sites exacerbating the situation for private players already grappling with multiple issues such as liquidity crisis, rising project costs, and dwindling demands. 15 million jobs were lost in May 2021. The construction industry took the biggest hit in employment during April-May 2021. It saw employment shrink by 8.8 million on a base of about 64 million in March 2021.
Competitive LandscapeThe Indian construction market is highly competitive, despite the major local and international players have created enough competitive environment in the sector. Still, the market opens opportunities for small and medium players due to increasing government investments in the sector. The Indian construction market presents opportunities for growth during the forecast period, which is expected to further drive market competition. Large players competing with others for a significant share leave the Indian construction market with no observable levels of consolidation.
