Background

India has systematically rolled out a PPP program for the delivery of high-priority public utilities and infrastructure and, over the last decade, developed what is perhaps one of the largest PPP Programs in the world. As per the World Bank, India is one of the leading countries in terms of readiness for PPPs with ~2000 PPP projects in various stages of implementation.

As per the 2018 Infrascope Report of the Economist Intelligence Unit, India ranked fourth in Asia with first rank in Investment and business Climate and second rank in Finance parameters.

India launched the National Infrastructure Pipeline (‘NIP’), in 2020 which envisages an investment of Rs. 111 lakh crores over 2020 to 2025 i.e., an annual average investment of ~Rs. 22 lakh crores. Public Private Partnerships (PPP) have been identified as a valuable instrument to speed up infrastructure development and investments envisaged under NIP.

This website has been developed by the PIU, to enhance the capabilities of implementation agencies in the country for adopting PPP as the go-to-mode for infrastructure development and implementation – ensuring the success of NIP.

The aim of the website is to provide key information related to PPP initiatives in India and to share PPP best practices for PPP practitioners whether in Government or the Private Sector. This website has been developed to provide information on Institutional Mechanisms for Appraisal of PPP projects and Schemes for financial support to PPP projects. The website also provides information on the latest initiatives of PIU acts as a readily accessible repository of policies, guidelines, model documents, guidance materials, and reference documents, and includes a database of key PPP projects.
