Industry Outlook 

India’s infrastructure sector continues to remain a key growth driver for the economy, supported by massive government spending, rising urbanisation, and increasing private sector participation. The country aims to strengthen its infrastructure ecosystem to support its long-term US$5 trillion economic growth target. 

According to industry estimates, cement demand in India is expected to witness a CAGR of 7-8 percent between FY25 and FY27, driven by higher spending on roads, highways, metro projects, railways, and urban infrastructure. The Union Budget 2025-26 increased capital expenditure allocation to Rs. 11.21 lakh crore, equivalent to 3.1 percent of GDP.

India is also expected to spend nearly Rs. 143 lakh crore on infrastructure through 2030, more than double the investment made during the previous seven years. Additionally, increasing investments in highways, airports, logistics parks, and smart city projects are expected to create long-term growth opportunities for infrastructure developers like IRB Infrastructure. 

IRB Infrastructure delivered a healthy improvement in profitability during Q4 FY26 despite a slight decline in yearly revenue. Strong growth in net profit, stable operational execution, and continued contributions from InvIT-related assets supported the company’s overall performance. The announcement of the fourth interim dividend further reflects management’s confidence in the company’s cash flow generation.
