New Delhi, Delhi, India:  India has already spent Rs 6 trillion of its Rs 10 trillion budget on infrastructure by September 2023. Resultantly order books are bursting. The highly anticipated 9th India Construction Festival is set to bring together the head honchos of the construction industry with over Rs 6 trillion order books centre stage in Delhi on 12^th October. Hosted by the FIRST Construction Council in partnership with Construction World and Equipment India magazine, this festival, scheduled for October 12, 2023, at Shangri La, New Delhi, is poised to unite industry stakeholders for three major events: the 13th India Roads Conference, the 11th Equipment India Awards, and the 21st CW Global Awards.

Financial model to measure growth

Clarifying the role of the event, the Founder, Pratap Padode, said, “The India Construction Festival hosts Construction World Global Awards which have completed 20 years of assessment of performance appraisal of construction companies as per its PERGRO model. The model uniquely assesses financial performance over five years giving due weightage to both profit and topline growth and then allows the jury to add a qualitative layer on top. Its findings have stood the test of time over two decades. The industry with over Rs 5 trillion of topline revenue will be attending the event and FIRST Construction Council always raises the bar on performance for the growth of India's infrastructure sector.” International engineering and design firms will also be felicitated with the presence of their editor of the New York-based Engineering News-Record at the event too, informed Padode.
