The project is the latest in a series of infrastructure deals signed by the company in India.<\/p>\n<p>Khaldoun Tabari, CEO of DSI, said: \u201cWe are achieving significant progress with our expansion drive in India where the government has launched widespread initiatives to speed up private investment in infrastructure sector through Public Private Partnerships (PPPs). DSI is well-positioned to provide expertise, technologies and resources especially in hospitality, aviation, railways, urban infrastructure and housing, thermal and renewable energy and water and wastewater sectors via our Water &amp; Power and MEP business units.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndia is familiar territory for DSI as we have already delivered a $25 million thermal power project in Orissa and a solar power project in Tamil Nadu. We are currently working on two major projects including a Coal Power project and the World Crest, (one of the tallest towers in India) collectively worth $67 million.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe new contract with the Lodha Group further strengthens our market position as we consolidate our stronghold in the subcontinent. We expect to secure more project wins from India in 2014 and hope it becomes one of our major markets in the near future,\u201d Tabari added.<\/p>\n<p>The Indian government has implemented a series of measures to accommodate and accelerate private investments through PPPs. In August 2013, the government approved 36 projects in the energy, power and infrastructure sectors worth $27.8 billion, noted Tabari.<\/p>\n<p>With an announced $154 billion worth of infrastructure projects to be funded via PPPs along with DSI\u2019s proven track record in India, the company is poised to win more projects in the country, he added.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Tradearabia<\/p>\n<p>Note: If you are looking for the low cost franchise business in\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.franchisezing.com\/franchise-business-opportunities\/real-estate-franchise\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Real Estate industry<\/a>, then you can apply your request\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.franchisezing.com\/franchise-business-opportunities\/real-estate-franchise\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Real estate News India\u00a0: Drake &amp; Scull International (DSI), a leading construction firm in the region, has won a $16 million contract to provide turnkey mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP)&nbsp;[ &hellip; ]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[787,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3438","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-real-estate-news","list-style-post"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.franchisezing.com\/franchise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3438","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.franchisezing.com\/franchise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.franchisezing.com\/franchise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.franchisezing.com\/franchise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.franchisezing.com\/franchise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3438"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.franchisezing.com\/franchise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3438\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.franchisezing.com\/franchise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3438"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.franchisezing.com\/franchise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3438"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.franchisezing.com\/franchise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3438"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
