How is Genesis Infra navigating EPC tender complexities following the ₹ 11.11 lakh crore capex budget, and what is your procurement priority?

The Union Budget 2025's capital expenditure of over ₹ 11.11 lakh crore shows the government's strong commitment to infrastructure, which directly shapes the EPC landscape we work in. To navigate these complex tenders, we blend strategic foresight with operational agility. In this post-Budget era, our top priority is procurement efficiency. This isn't just about cost; it's also about fostering transparency, mitigating risk, and promoting sustainability. We're building resilient supply chains by diversifying suppliers and partnering closely with stakeholders to withstand disruptions. We're embracing digital tools, such as Al-driven supply chain management and blockchain for tracking, to ensure timely, quality deliveries while keeping costs under control. Simultaneously, we uphold stringent quality standards and performance securities to safeguard project integrity, in line with the government's push for accountability.

This holistic approach enables us to succeed in challenging EPC tenders and make a meaningful contribution to India's growth story.
