India is a growing economy with huge urbanization and has so much more to build. The construction equipment leasing business is the upcoming business sector in which suppliers and other professionals can rent out unused or idle equipment to other contractors and professionals. Governments of many developing countries are consistently emphasizing on fixing the nation's infrastructure deficit in order to improve the quality of life and strengthen economic competitiveness. In the current scenario, there is an evident growth in the global infrastructure sector.
“With the projects ongoing - The Bharatmala Project, High Speed Rail Project, Metro Projects, and many other projects there is a sudden boost in the Construction Equipment Rental industry. Many new opportunities have developed. This exceptional growth has created a high demand for the equipment for the big players like L&T, Afcons, and so on, which has increased the demand for the rental industry. There is also a paradigm shift in the strategies of companies. Many companies have started renting out the equipment instead of buying which has also played a major role in bringing the boost”, speaks Avi Gupta, MD, S.D. Infrastructure.
