Infrastructure Brief

AI-Assisted Infrastructure Assessment

India is undertaking one of the largest infrastructure build-outs in modern history, anchored by the Gati Shakti master-plan. Highways, dedicated freight corridors, ports, airports and digital connectivity have advanced rapidly. The bottlenecks remain urban water, sewerage, affordable housing and intra-city transit. Digital payments and identity infrastructure are world-leading.
