Summary

 

Crisil Market Intelligence & Analytics - Consulting will hold the fourth edition of its flagship event, the Crisil India Infrastructure Conclave, at New Delhi on October 17th, 2023 on the theme ‘Building and Financing Sustainable Infrastructure’. 

 

The conclave serves as a thought-leadership platform that brings together policymakers, industry leaders, funding agencies and other stakeholders to stimulate and yield ideas, actions and reforms to drive India’s infrastructure build-out.

 

India’s plan of becoming a $5 trillion economy hinges on sizeable investments in public and private infrastructure, estimated at $1.4 trillion in fiscal 2022. The timelines for this economic target may have shifted by 2-3 years in the current state. Meanwhile, an important dimension has been added - that of ensuring sustainability to infrastructure. To wit, India’s goal of ensuring responsible growth by achieving carbon neutrality by 2070 requires the infrastructure plans to be restated so there is minimal impact on the environment.

 

As in earlier editions, the event this year will bring together a galaxy of senior sector leaders, both private and government, to deliberate on the funding and capacity building needs of sustainability infrastructure across the avenues of energy, transportation and urban facilities. Under the wider theme, three discussion panels will be conducted, on assessment of investment required for building green urban infrastructure, on the investment required for sustainable mobility and transportation, and on identification of avenues for green capital for financing these investments.
