Infrastructure industry needs to be stronger

“Our agenda has always been to serve the customer first,” says Ashok Mandal, Director, Maini Construction Equipments Pvt. Ltd.
 Maini Construction Equipments Pvt. Ltd. has been one of the leading players in construction formwork and scaffolding in India. In an interview with ACE Update, Ashok Mandal explains how formwork and scaffolding sectors will add value to the construction and infrastructure development in India.
Construction in IndiaThe Indian construction and infrastructure industry needs to become stronger in the coming years. The plans initiated by the government and the different types of construction activities happening would be the engine of all such growths. As of now, the industry is getting more organised and authoritative. The recent introduction of instruments such as REITs (Real Estate Investment Trusts) has helped propel the investments in this sector while allowing individuals to invest on large scale.
Adding growth to MainiA spur in the construction and infrastructure sector will provide great opportunity for growth in its business which supports this industry. There will be a good demand for formwork and scaffolding solutions along with the demand in mechanical car packing systems that facilitate more space. This increase in business will give Maini an opportunity to serve more customers across the country. Innovation and safer, cost-economic products and systems will also ensure consolidation of the brand Maini.
X-FactorsThe factors, which will govern the construction and infrastructure, will be initiatives taken up by the government to support the development of the sector. The industry has been waiting for government to spend on various infrastructure activities besides facilitating of fast-track clearances of projects such as highways, power and other developmental projects. There should be awarding of special industry status and tax standard operating procedures.  The availability of skilled workers will also play a major role in the development. There should be availability of reliable and economical tools and equipment with the ease of financing from the banking and finance sector.
