Book excerpt: The availability of adequate, efficient, and affordable infrastructural facilities - both economic and social - constitutes the core of development strategy and efforts. In the absence of infrastructure services, enterprises are forced to seek higher-cost alternatives which impact profits and production levels adversely. In India, the demand for infrastructural services has increased rapidly since industrial liberalization of the economy. Unfortunately, infrastructural bottlenecks remain the biggest stumbling block of industrial progress in the country. By their very nature, infrastructure projects involve huge initial investments, long gestation periods, and high risk. This book examines the problems and inadequacies of various sectors of economic and social infrastructure in India. Changes in infrastructure policy and new institutional arrangements for infrastructure development are also discussed.

This book was released on 2020-11-05 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains how water, electricity/power, roads and other infrastructure services are linked together within the general basket of development and how to obtain the optimum use of resources.

Download or read book Infrastructure Financing in India written by Kumar V. Pratap and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-10-21 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governments the world over want to spend more on infrastructure (the benchmark for developing countries is 7-8% of GDP per annum) to lay the foundation for sustained and inclusive growth. India is no exception. It realizes that more needs to be spent on infrastructure for the country to regain its position as the fastest growing large economy in the world. While India spent about 7.2% of its GDP on infrastructure during the Eleventh Plan period (2008-12), this number has recently come down to approximately 5%. The backdrop of the book is the ambitious National Infrastructure Plan (NIP); the Task Force report on the NIP was finalized in April 2020. Since infrastructure investment is crucial to faster and inclusive growth, it is timely that the NIP is actioned now, given that the Indian economy contracted to 7.3% in the financial year 2020-21. This book discusses various aspects of infrastructure financing in detail, with a major section devoted to green financing of infrastructure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses policy instruments for sustainable infrastructure developments. Railways are one of the most important developmental instruments of a region, province, or country. They play a crucial role in economic development, urban growth, urban mobility, regional susceptibility, market integration, and world trade. Railways are an integral part of regional and urban development, both in terms of freight and passenger transport. By offering case studies from various regions and cities in South Asia, this book examines the evolution of railway transportation and the impact of these infrastructure projects on regional and urban development. It examines the interactions between evolving infrastructures and competing demands and considers the negative and positive externalities of railway transportation for people, places, and locations. The contributions analyze issues such as network infrastructure planning and technological development, passenger mobility and satisfaction, vulnerability to environmental impacts, and cross-border trade.

Download or read book Infrastructure and Development in India written by Rajarshi Majumder and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of infrastructure is paramount in the development process as shortages of infrastructure act as a limiting factor in fostering economic growth. Its importance is enhanced in labor-surplus developing economies like India. Large numbers of people can be gainfully employed in the creation of infrastructural facilities, which can thereafter fuel economic growth. Surprisingly, studies on this important issue have been sparse in India, and most of them have been done at the national or state level, or have focused on select facility. This book fills the gap by examining the infrastructure-development interlinkage in India up to the district level, preceded by a national overview of developments over the last 35 years, using a multi-variable approach. Another distinctive feature is an exercise in infrastructure demand projection consistent with India's Vision 2020 targets and cost estimation for reaching those goals. An extensive discussion on relevant policy issues facing the infrastructural planners today - both at sectoral and aggregate levels - completes the study.
