As per government sources, this period has also seen a sharp rise in infrastructure spending, with capital expenditure increasing from Rs. 1.97 lakh crore in 2014-15 to a budget estimate Rs. 11.21 lakh crore in 2025-26 more than a five-fold jump.
As a share of the Union Budget, infrastructure capital expenditure doubled from nearly 12 percent to about 22 percent.
As per Cabinet Secretary - PRAGATI functions as part of a broader, integrated digital ecosystem that includes PM Gati Shakti, PARIVESH, and the Project Monitoring Group (PMG).
Viewed in totality, on-ground observations, spatial outcomes, and financial indicators together suggest that infrastructure spending in India has been systematically scaled and effectively managed, reinforcing its role as a stable contributor to national growth.
