Market outlook
Sharing his view on the future outlook for ECE industry, Jasmeet says, “Government’s strategic budget allocation, investments in the infrastructure sector and large scale project announcements are promising for the sector.”

He observes that, sectors such as roads and highways, railways, airports, and inland waterways are the primary growth drivers for this sector. Roads and highways remains the key sector driving growth so far. However, Jasmeet believes, “To ensure sustainable growth we need two or more sectors to come on stream. Railways is one of the key sectors which has made some progress. Irrigation, real estate and mining are few other sectors that have to start progressing to make the demand sustainable.”

He adds, “Government is taking strategic actions to propel growth and we are hopeful that these sectors will also start performing in the future.”
