India's New Investment Projects Decline in Q2 Amid Global and Domestic Challenges
New investment projects in India declined by 6% year-on-year to Rs 10.2 lakh crore in Q2FY27, with private sector projects maintaining an 87% share in the first half of the fiscal year. While private project announcements rose 56% year-on-year to Rs 26 lakh crore, government projects fell 33%. The sequential drop in Q2 followed a strong Q1, amid rising stalled projects and global uncertainties like higher capital costs and raw material prices. Key sectors include power, semiconductors, electric vehicles, metals, mining, and real estate.
