India’s foodgrain production is projected to reach approximately 368 MMT by 2030–31, and while current storage capacity remaining lower, a quick response framework is needed to encourage investment in this industry.  This integrated approach of converting market intelligence into actionable financial modelling positions this initiative as a first-of-its-kind industry toolkit related to agricultural logistics.

PHDCCI’s latest effort bridges a critical gap between market analysis and project execution. The newly released financial model takes this further and translates market opportunity into implementable market entry strategy with clear financial metrics.

The new report and model provides:

·         A standardised project template that can be used by both investors and Government of India’s PPP initiative

·         Detailed capex, opex, revenue, and financing structures

·         Bankable projections of cash flows, returns, and debt servicing

This makes the report not just analytical—but directly usable for investment decisions, DPR (Detailed Project Feasibility Report) preparation, and financial closure. The report is backed by a financial model which is structured as a plug-and-play tool that helps investors to move quickly from concept to decision-making.

It also provides standardized financial inputs that can be directly used for bank financing proposals, public-private partnership (PPP) bids, and leveraging schemes such as the Agriculture Infrastructure Fund (AIF).

PHDCCI stated that this initiative represents a new approach to policy advocacy—moving beyond recommendations to execution-ready solutions by combining industry market research report with financial modelling, with the aim to catalyse faster project implementation, and greater private investment.

A technology-driven storage infrastructure is essential to support India’s transition toward a more efficient agricultural value chain to reduce wastage and creation of value added products both for domestic as well as export markets said Mr. Rajeev Juneja, President, PHDCCI.

BHAVYA will be implemented in partnership with states & private sector players. Plug-and-play industrial parks are “ready-to-use ecosystems where land, utilities, approvals, and infrastructure are pre-developed, enabling industries to start operations quickly without delays related to land acquisition or infrastructure setup”, according to a government statement.

Small Hydro Power Development Scheme for FY 2026-27 to FY 2030-31 is aimed at installation of small hydro projects of an approximate capacity of 1500 MW. The scheme will support setting up of small projects (between 1-25 MW capacity) in different states, and will “especially benefit hilly and North Eastern states with high potential for such projects”.

During the meeting, the Prime Minister reviewed five major infrastructure projects related to roads, railways, power, water resources and coal sectors, spanning five states and involving an investment of over ₹40,000 crore. He also reviewed the implementation of the PM SHRI scheme and emphasized that PM SHRI schools should serve as models for holistic, future-ready education, with a focus on outcomes rather than mere infrastructure creation. Chief Secretaries were directed to closely monitor progress, and senior officers were encouraged to undertake field visits.

Reflecting on PRAGATI’s evolution, the Prime Minister said the platform exemplifies cooperative federalism by bringing together ministries, departments and state governments on a single problem-solving forum. Since 2014, 377 projects have been reviewed and nearly 94 per cent of identified issues resolved, unlocking several long-pending projects. Linking PRAGATI with the vision of Viksit Bharat @ 2047, he called for institutionalising similar mechanisms at the state level to further simplify governance, improve performance and enhance citizens’ ease of living.
