Both public and private investments in Indian infrastructure now increasing, especially as investment banks/hedge funds/private equity funds are now trying to seek other sources of profits now that many of their other businesses have peaked:

Quote:
Inadequate levels of infrastructure investment are estimated to be holding back India's economic growth by as much as 2 percent a year, according to the government. Highways, which move almost 80 percent of the goods in India, account for only about 2 percent of the country's 3.32 million kilometers (2.1 million miles) of roads.

Indian ports take 10 times longer to unload cargo than in Hong Kong or Singapore and a 13 percent power shortage during peak hours forces companies to have their own power plants.

JSW Steel reported a 32% drop in profits [a 7% decline in profits was forecast]. Margins were squeezed as demand and pricing failed to offset rising raw material costs.

Bilateral trade between India and China has grown rapidly. It was forecast to reach $20bn last year from just $1.2bn in 1995, and is targeted to double to $40bn by 2010.
