Description

Description

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) experienced a slowdown in road project awards in FY26, awarding 3,124 km of road projects, which is 22% lower year-on-year and below the target of approximately 4,500 km. Construction activity also declined, with 5,313 km constructed in FY26, a 5% decline from the previous year but exceeding the internal target of 5,000 km. The slowdown is attributed to delays in project appraisal and approval and limited private sector participation in build-operate-transfer (BOT) projects. The outlook for FY27 remains challenging with no increase in budgetary allocation for NHAI and limited scope for near-term recovery in project awards.
