India s need for infrastructure development is also well supported by the Government s intention as outlined in the 12th Five Year Plan (FYP). Five sectors account for more than 80 percent of total planned spending: electricity, telecom, roads and bridges, irrigation, and railways, including mass rapid transit systems. Infrastructure growth holds the key to the industry realizing its potential in India. In the 12th Five Year Plan, the government has earmarked approximately US$1 trillion for infrastructure investment. Consequently, infrastructure spending is expected to grow from 7.2 percent of GDP in 2012 to 9 percent by 2017. This is likely to spur the demand for construction equipment, and if the industry s full potential is realized, the result could be a US$16 billion to US$21 billion industry by 2020. The Government has kicked off several initiatives to develop smart cities, airports & highways and announced big energy investments along with the promise to decontrol diesel in a year. The infrastructure development, which has suffered due to slow approvals in the past, was a key plank of the budget. A huge investment of Rs 37,880 crore (including Rs 3,000 crore for North East) is proposed for NHAI and state roads along with measures to reduce maze of clearances as the Government intends to construct national highways of 8,500km. The Government intends to set up the National Industrial Corridor Authority, with a view to give impetus to transport connectivity which will lead to India s growth in manufacturing and urbanization. Improving supply chain for faster transport of goods to various cities would be done by working on select expressways along with development of industrial corridor. NHAI will be required to set aside Rs 500 crore for project preparation of the same. Rs 14,389 crore has been provided for Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojna (PMGSY). AIMS & OBJECTIVES The conference is aimed to provide a platform for the equipment manufacturers, users, consultants, project authorities, concerned government organizations, technical experts, etc. to deliberate on the present trends on applications of construction equipment in the users industry sectors, performance of speci c equipment in the projects, requirement of state of the art technology, consumers view point and case study on applications of equipment, etc. The focus areas of the conference would be : Infrastructure Development - Present Scenario & Challenges Speed and Scale of Project Implementation Innovative model of building sustainable infrastructure Perspectives of the Government and regulatory bodies Human Resources & Skill Development Viable nancing model for the equipment and projects Leasing and renting of equipment THEME FOR THE CONFERENCE Adopting Speed, Scale and Skill in Infrastructure Development and Project Implementation WHO SHOULD ATTEND Senior of cials from key industry sectors such as Roads & Highways, Power Sector, Urban Construction, Bridge construction, Housing, leading construction companies would take part in this programme.
