One of the key drivers for the Indian economy is infrastructure development. The sector holds a great significance for the country’s overall development. The Indian government has taken several initiatives and announced many reforms for the growth of the Infrastructure sector of India. Some of the initiatives include, allocation of USD 1.89 billion to the Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation and Smart Cities Mission under the Union Budget 2021-2022, proposal to set up a National Bank for financing Infrastructure and development to fund infrastructure projects in India, greater push for monetisation of infra assets and creation of 'National Monetisation Pipeline' of potential brownfield infrastructure assets.

With the liberalization of the foreign direct investment policy, the Infrastructure sector has attracted substantial foreign investments. Besides, there are many private players who have expressed their interest to invest in this sector in view of the various initiatives and reforms undertaken by the Government of India. With the notification of regulatory regime for the Infrastructure Investment Trust, the infrastructure sector is expected to attract the private equity players as well.
