The future of engineering, procurement, and turnkey (EPC) project companies in India’s infrastructure sector looks highly promising. With significant government investments in infrastructure development, such as the National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP), and ambitious projects like smart cities, highways, and renewable energy, the demand for EPC companies is set to grow. These firms will play a crucial role in executing large-scale projects, offering a complete range of services from design to implementation. 

Opportunities and Challenges 

EPC companies have immense growth opportunities as India continues to focus on urbanization, industrial growth, and sustainability. The expansion of renewable energy, transportation, and industrial infrastructure creates long-term demand. However, challenges like regulatory complexities, rising material costs, and skilled labor shortages must be addressed. Companies that can leverage technological advancements, efficient project management, and strategic partnerships will emerge as leaders in this dynamic and evolving sector.

Recent Updates 

New Order Win for Development of Southern Ludhiana Bypass 

The Company has informed its stakeholders that it has emerged as the L1 bidder in the Financial Bid Opening held on 24th January 2025 for a tender invited by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). 

The project involves the development of a 6-lane Greenfield Southern Ludhiana Bypass, which will play a vital role in connecting key intersections along the Ludhiana-Ajmer Economic Corridor. The bid was placed at INR 923.00 Crore. The project is considered an important infrastructure development in the state of Punjab. 

Project Details and Mode of Execution 

The Southern Ludhiana Bypass project is set to stretch from the intersection with NH-44 near Village Rajgarh to the intersection with the Delhi-Katra Expressway near Village Ballowal. The project will be executed under the Hybrid Annuity Mode (HAM), with an estimated cost of INR 

864.97 Crore. It is expected that this development will significantly improve traffic flow and enhance regional connectivity, contributing to the economic development of the area. 

Order Book Composition and Future Outlook 

As of June 30, 2024, a significant portion of the company’s Order Book, amounting to 80.31%, is attributed to projects awarded by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). The

remaining 19.69% of the Order Book is comprised of contracts with various central, state government, and local departments. This diverse distribution reflects the strong presence across different sectors and governmental bodies. 

Looking ahead, the Company has stated that it expects contracts with government authorities to continue to constitute a significant portion of its Order Book. This reliance on larger contracts from a limited number of key customers may lead to greater concentration within the Order Book, potentially resulting in increased volatility in the Company’s financial results and heightened exposure to risks associated with individual contracts.
