As one of the fastest growing economies and with the rapid pace of urbanisation, India is witnessing a tremendous rise in the construction industry. Antony Parokaran, CEO of EROS ELEVATORS and SKYZONE parking says, “The Vertical growth in cities, in both residential and commercial sectors, presents huge opportunities for intelligent and sustainable elevator systems and solutions. With the Indian government’s thrust on the development of smart cities and low-cost housing, the elevator and escalator market is set to see significant growth. With land scarcity and escalating land prices, vertical growth seems to be the only alternative and the growth is picking up also in Tier 2 & Tier 3 cities.”
