MANAGEMENT
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Economic Overview
India Inc invested an overwhelming 81 per cent of its planned total investment
of USD 104 billion during April-December 2007-08 in developing core, physical
and service infrastructure. The Government has undertaken many proactive
measures like opening up the infrastructure sector to private players,
permitting Foreign Direct Investment into various segments, introducing model
concession agreements, significantly increasing allocation to road
infrastructure, taking up new projects like the National Highway Development
Project, generating additional power capacity of about 70,000 MW, adding
capacity in major and minor ports, modernising and redeveloping railway
stations and metro and non-metro airports, etc.
In the years to come, the pace of infrastructure development is only expected
to increase. Regardless of the impediments along the way over the next few
years, the sector is expected to continue to record high rates of growth.

has encouraged the rapid development of LNG export projects in the Asia Pacific
region and in the
The outlook for LNG demand in the Indian region continues to be good, with Asia
Pacific LNG imports projected to nearly double by 2015. The LNG demand outlook
provides opportunities and challenges for LNG suppliers to the
