The construction industry in India has grown significantly due to infrastructure development needs, growing between 10-15% annually which is faster than GDP growth. It is a major employment sector but remains unorganized and competitive with small and medium businesses dominating. Working capital management is important for construction firms to ensure sufficient cash flow for operations and debt obligations. Inventory, receivables, and payables are key aspects of working capital management that construction firms like JMC Projects focus on through centralized purchasing and receivables collection efforts. The union budget prioritizes infrastructure which provides opportunities for growth.
