Larsen & Toubro CMD Advocates Longer Tenures for Public Sector Leaders
Larsen & Toubro Chairman and Managing Director S N Subrahmanyan advocated for longer tenures of around five years for heads of public sector enterprises to improve project planning and execution. He noted that frequent leadership changes hinder long-term vision and contribute to delays and cost overruns in infrastructure projects. His remarks coincided with the government's increased infrastructure investment of Rs 12.2 lakh crore for 2026-27, amid ongoing challenges in project delivery and quality.
