About Us

As India advances towards its vision of Viksit Bharat 2047, the development of robust, sustainable, and future-ready infrastructure stands as a critical foundation for this national aspiration. Backed by progressive policy frameworks and large-scale government-led programs, infrastructure development is playing a pivotal role in accelerating economic growth, enhancing connectivity, and improving the overall quality of life for citizens. At this defining moment, India’s infrastructure sector has emerged as one of the largest construction market globally, underscoring both the scale of opportunity and the responsibility to deliver excellence.

In this context, the Association of Infrastructure Industry (India) was established as a collective and representative platform for the sector. The Association brings together stakeholders across the infrastructure ecosystem to play a powerful, catalytic role in shaping the future of the infrastructure sector. It aims to strengthen industry capabilities, elevate standards, and advance innovation by enabling meaningful collaboration between industry, government, and academia, and by supporting skills and capability development. Since it’s inception in 2017, the Association is focused at contributing to the creation of sustainable, resilient, and globally competitive infrastructure that supports India’s long-term development goals.
