Highway construction to decline 7-10% in FY 26: Report

Highway construction in India is projected to decline 7–10% in FY26 to 9,500–10,200 km due to slower project awarding, land acquisition issues, and execution delays, says CareEdge Ratings. Revised MoRTH guidelines aim to streamline pre-construction and ease project timelines.
