The companies involved in the sector are raising billions by issuing of bonds to make highways and port projects so that more growth and jobs are realized.

The growth in jobs can be sustained as the fundamentals of the Indian growth story are sound, and there is a heavy demand for infrastructure and industrial activity. With the government support to the infrastructure sectors and enhanced credit flow, the situation is set to deliver fantastic results in the days to come.
