ADB: India needs $230 bn Infra Investment Annually

Asian Development Bank (ADB), established in 1966 in Manila, is dedicated to reducing poverty int he Asia-Pacific region through inclusive economic growth, environmentally sustainable development and regional integration. ADB is owned by 67 members - 48 from the region. It assists its members and partners by providing loans, technical assistance, grants, and equity investments to promote social and economic development. In 2017, ADB financing totaled $32.2 billion, including $11.9 billion in co-financing.

INDIA NEEDS $230 BN

Although India has improved its global ranking in the quality of infrastructure index from 87 to 68 during 2014-16, infrastructure continues to be a major bottleneck for the country. Urban areas are the growth engines for the country’s economy and contribute about 63% of the country’s GDP, which will potentially rise to 75% by 2030. However, India’s fast expanding towns and cities face infrastructure deficiencies, weak service delivery mechanisms, inadequate finances and poor local governance.
