India’s Construction Sector Outlook

India’s construction sector continues to expand at a remarkable pace. The market, valued at $1.04 trillion in 2024, is projected to rise to $1.21 trillion in 2025 and is on track to almost double to $2.13 trillion by 2030, implying a 12.1% CAGR between 2025 and 2030.

As the second-largest employer after agriculture, the construction industry plays a crucial role in India’s economic backbone. It contributes roughly 9% to the country’s GDP and directly employs about 51 million people. The ecosystem is vast and interconnected, spanning nearly 250 sub-sectors that link into multiple parts of the economy.

Within this landscape, the real estate sector is set for significant expansion. It is expected to touch a $1 trillion market size by 2030, with its share of India’s GDP poised to rise to around 13% by 2025. Demand for commercial real estate remains strong — office spaces, hotels, retail complexes and entertainment hubs are all driving growth. In 2020, net office absorption across the top six cities reached 31.9 million sq. ft.

Urbanisation will be a major force shaping future demand. By 2030, more than 40% of India’s population is estimated to live in urban areas, up from about 33% today. This shift is likely to create the need for 25 million additional affordable and mid-income housing units.

The government’s National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) further strengthens the outlook. With a planned spending of $1.4 trillion, the programme allocates 24% to renewable energy, 18% to roads and highways, 17% to urban infrastructure, and 12% to railways, underscoring India’s broad and sustained push into next-generation infrastructure.
