The document defines infrastructure and discusses various sectors that are considered part of infrastructure including economic infrastructure (energy, transport, telecommunications, special economic zones, urban and rural infrastructure) and social infrastructure (human development, health, education, employment, women's empowerment, empowerment of disadvantaged groups). It provides details on key infrastructure sectors in India like power, railways, roadways, telecommunications, oil and gas. It also discusses policies and definitions of infrastructure from organizations like RBI, IRDA, Economic Survey and Income Tax Department.

SAP ID:500034638

3. DEFINATIONS:
• Infrastructure defines as :
1-The basic structural foundation of an economy.
2-An underlying base or foundation especially for an organization or
system.

4. The infrastructure sector covers:
1- Economic Infrastructure
2-Social infrastructure

5. Economic Infrastructure
• Energy( electricity, coal, oil and gas)
• Transport( railways, roads, ports, civil aviation)
• Telecommunication(including posts)
• Special economic zones
• Urban infrastructure(water supply, sewerage,drainage,city roads)
• Rural infrastructure

6. Social Infrastructure
• Human development and social security.
• Poverty and poverty alleviation programmes.
• Health and family welfare.
• Education and training.
• Labour Employment and Welfare.
• Empowerment of women.
• Empowerment of socially disadvantaged groups.

10. “Infrastructure Facility” means:
• A road,bridge,airport,port,inland waterways and inland ports,etc.
• A highway project including housing or other activities
• A water supply project,irrigation project,etc.

11. The Rangarajan Commission indicated six
characteristics of infrastructure sectors:
• Natural Monopoly
• High-Sunk costs
• Non-tradability of output
• Non-rivalness(up to congestion limits) in consumption
• Possibility of price exclusion
• Bestowing externalities on society

12. • Dr. Rakesh Mohan Committee in “The Indian Infrastructure Report”
included electricity,gas,water supply,telecom,roads,industrial
parks,railways,ports,airports,urban infrastructure,and storage as
infrastructure.
• Except industrial parks and urban infrastructure,all these sub-sectors
are treated by central statistical organization also as infrastructure.

14. Power Sector
• The electricity sector in India had an installed capacity of
237.742 GW as of February 2014, the world's fourth largest.
• Captive power plants(it is associated with specific industrial
complexes, and their output is almost entirely consumed by that
industrial plant) generate an additional 39.375 GW.
• Non Renewable Power Plants constitute 87.55% of the installed
capacity, and Renewable Power Plants constitute the remaining
12.45% of total installed Capacity

15. • The power sector in India has undergone significant progress after
Independence.
• When India became independent in 1947, the country had a power
generating capacity of 1,362 MW.
• Hydro power and coal based thermal power have been the main
sources of generating
electricity.
• Generation and distribution of electrical power was carried out
primarily by private utility companies. Notable amongst them and still
in existence is Calcutta Electric.

16. • Power was available only in a few urban centers; rural areas and
villages did not have
electricity.
• After 1947, all new power generation, transmission and distribution
in the rural sector and the urban centers (which was not served by
private utilities) came under the purview of State and Central
government agencies. State Electricity Boards (SEBs) were formed in
all the states.
• In spite of the overall development that has taken place, the power
supply industry has been under constant pressure to bridge the gap
between supply and demand.

17. Structure of power sector
• Majority of Generation, Transmission and Distribution capacities are
with either public sector companies or with State Electricity Boards
(SEBs).
• Private sector participation is increasing especially in Generation and
Distribution - Distribution licences for several cities are already with the
private sector - Many large generation projects have been planned in
the private sector

18. Policy- Power sector
•100% FDI permitted in Generation, Transmission &Distribution - the
Government is keen to draw private investment into the sector
•Policy framework in place: Electricity Act 2003 and National Electricity
Policy 2005

19. • Incentives: Income tax holiday for a block of 10 year since the first 15
years of operation; waiver of capital goods import duties on mega
power projects (above1,000 MW generation capacity)
• Independent Regulators: Central Electricity Regulatory Commission
for Central PSUs and inter-State issues. Each State has its own
Electricity Regulatory Commission.
