Industry leaders have welcomed the Union Budget 2026–27, highlighting its strong focus on infrastructure, manufacturing, and technology-driven growth. With record capital expenditure, dedicated schemes for construction and infrastructure equipment, and initiatives to enhance financing and private participation, the Budget is seen as a catalyst for faster project execution, domestic innovation, and long-term industrial growth. Executives from companies like ATMOS Systems, Rodic Digital, and key construction equipment firms applaud the government’s balanced approach to boosting productivity, reducing import dependence, and strengthening India’s infrastructure ecosystem.

“The Union Budget 2026 reinforces India’s focus on strengthening manufacturing and infrastructure, creating a robust ecosystem for technology-driven logistics and material handling solutions. Continued investments in infrastructure and capital expenditure provide the long-term visibility needed to scale automation and digitalisation across warehouses and supply chains. At ATMOS Systems, we remain committed to delivering advanced, efficient, and sustainable warehouse automation solutions that support India’s industrial growth and evolving logistics needs.”
Sorab Agrawal, Executive Director.
“The Union Budget 2026 clearly recognises construction and infrastructure equipment as a critical enabler of India’s growth and execution capacity. The increase in capital expenditure to ₹12.2 lakh crore reinforces long-term momentum for infrastructure development, while the announcement of a dedicated scheme for enhancement of construction and infrastructure equipment signals a strong policy focus on productivity, safety, and technological capability at project sites. This approach will support faster project execution, reduce import dependence, and strengthen domestic manufacturing of advanced construction equipment. For Indian manufacturers like us, it provides a stable and enabling framework to scale innovation and support India’s infrastructure ambitions “,
“The Union Budget for FY27 presents a strong, execution-focused outlook for the transport and infrastructure sector. Despite continued fiscal consolidation, the 9.1% increase in transport sector outlay to ₹5.98 lakh crore underscores the government’s sustained emphasis on infrastructure development. Enhanced allocations under the Scheme for Incentives to States for Creation of Infrastructure (SASCI), along with the development of City Economic Regions and proposed University Townships near industrial and logistics corridors, are expected to significantly boost infrastructure creation.

Equally important are measures to improve access to finance, including the Infrastructure Risk Guarantee Fund and steps to deepen bond and municipal markets, which will strengthen private participation. The focused push on enhancing construction and infrastructure equipment manufacturing is particularly encouraging, as it will reduce import dependence and enable faster, more efficient project execution. Overall, the FY27 Budget provides a balanced framework. We wholly commend Hon’ble Prime Minister and the Finance Minister for providing growth impetus and addressing sector pain points”
