According to TechSci Research report, “India Roads and Highways Market – By Region, Competition, Forecast and Opportunities, 2020-2030F”, India Roads and Highways Market was valued at USD 152.16 Billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 266.60 Billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 9.63% during the forecast period.

The Indian government plays a crucial role in the expansion and modernization of the country's roads and highways network. Various initiatives and policies have been implemented to accelerate road infrastructure development, recognizing its importance for economic growth and regional connectivity.

One of the key programs is the Bharatmala Pariyojana, launched to improve efficiency in freight and passenger movement by developing national highways, expressways, and economic corridors. This initiative aims to bridge infrastructural gaps, particularly in rural and remote areas, fostering economic activities across states. Additionally, the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) focuses on enhancing rural connectivity by constructing all-weather roads, which significantly contribute to the development of rural economies.

The government has also encouraged private sector participation through Public-Private Partnership (PPP) models, attracting domestic and foreign investments. The introduction of the National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) and other budget allocations for the highway sector have further boosted road construction projects. Furthermore, policies like fast-track approvals, ease of land acquisition, and increased budgetary allocations have accelerated highway development. These measures have made India one of the fastest-growing road infrastructure markets in the world, facilitating trade, tourism, and industrial growth.

Based on Process, The Expansion held the largest market share in 2024.  Expansion is the dominant trend in India’s roads and highways market due to rapid urbanization, rising vehicle ownership, and the need for enhanced connectivity. With India’s economy growing and industries expanding, the demand for a robust transportation network has intensified, leading to large-scale road development projects across the country.

The Indian government has prioritized road expansion through programs such as Bharatmala Pariyojana, which aims to develop economic corridors, expressways, and border roads. Similarly, the National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) has allocated significant funds for highway expansion, ensuring seamless connectivity between industrial zones, ports, and urban centers.

India has one of the fastest-growing vehicle populations, leading to traffic congestion in cities and on highways. To address this, multi-lane expressways, bypasses, and ring roads are being developed to decongest existing roads and improve travel efficiency. Additionally, the growth of the e-commerce and logistics sectors has fueled demand for better road infrastructure to facilitate the smooth movement of goods.

The expansion of roads and highways is further driven by public-private partnerships (PPP) and increased foreign direct investment (FDI) in infrastructure projects. The government’s monetization of road assets through the National Monetization Pipeline (NMP) has attracted private investors, accelerating expansion efforts.

Based on region, North India is emerging as the fastest-growing region in the India roads and highways market due to a combination of factors, including economic growth, strategic location, government initiatives, and infrastructure development.

Economic growth in North India, particularly in states like Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab, and Delhi, is driving the demand for improved connectivity. The region has become a major hub for manufacturing, agriculture, and commerce, necessitating the expansion and modernization of its road infrastructure to facilitate smooth transportation of goods and people. Additionally, the increasing demand for logistics and warehousing in the region, especially along key industrial corridors, is pushing the need for robust road networks.

North India’s strategic geographical location plays a crucial role. It serves as a critical gateway for both domestic and international trade, linking the northern part of the country to key global markets. Key highways like the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, Eastern Peripheral Expressway, and the Amritsar-Kolkata Economic Corridor are improving access to major ports and manufacturing hubs, further boosting trade and economic activity.

Government initiatives have significantly accelerated infrastructure development in North India. The Bharatmala Pariyojana and National Highways Development Project (NHDP) are major contributors to road construction in this region. The government’s emphasis on developing expressways, bypasses, and multi-lane highways is directly addressing the rising traffic volume, thereby enhancing travel efficiency.
