Union Budget 2026 Expectation Quote by Mr Sunil Nair, CEO, Ramky Infrastructure Ltd.

India’s infrastructure journey has gained remarkable momentum, and what’s commendable is the government’s steadfast commitment demonstrated in the Union Budget 2025-26. Key initiatives included a massive ₹11.21 lakh crore capex allocation, fueling projects like the ₹1 trillion Urban Challenge Fund for cities as growth hubs and water sanitation, alongside the second Asset Monetisation Plan targeting ₹10 trillion for new builds. Outcomes have been tangible: accelerated progress on Bharatmala highways, 1,000+ railway station modernisations, and metro expansions, reducing logistics costs and boosting urban connectivity—evident in our own ₹215 crore sewage contracts in Hyderabad.

For Budget 2026, the sector anticipates sustained capex at ₹12-13 lakh crore with sharper focus on water infrastructure, including viability gap funding for PPPs in 7,000 MLD sewage treatment under Namami Gange and circular reuse mandates across urban areas. Enhanced support for HAM models in industrial parks, green bonds for STPs, and digital twins for O&M will accelerate nationwide execution. These steps will drive resilient growth, aligning with Viksit Bharat@2047 through sustainable urban transformation.” – Sunil S. Nair, CEO, Ramky Infrastructure Ltd.
