According to the report, the mining and construction sector, a key enabler of infrastructure, energy, and industrial growth, commands a USD 18 trillion global market and contributes 16 per cent to global GDP.
In India, this sector is central to national development -- contributing 22 per cent to GDP, ranking second only to China, and supporting over 70 million jobs. India is the fastest-growing market among the top six global MCE markets, with a CAGR of 12 per cent over the past five years. India's rapid growth is positioning it as a key player in the global MCE landscape.
Live Events
The expansion of the MCE sector is projected to contribute over USD 100 billion to India's economy by FY30, adding 20 million jobs directly or indirectly. This impact is driven by the growth of upstream and downstream industries, job creation and a boost to tax revenues.
To realise the full potential of Vision 2030, the report recommended structural and policy initiatives, institutionalising governance via a single nodal agency, Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme tailored for MCE, accelerating MCE exports through FTAs, establishing mutual recognition arrangements for Indian certification standards, promoting technology adoption and automation, rationalising tax and import duties among others.

India's trade may get hit if West Asia conflict escalates
New Delhi: India's trade may get impacted if the tensions in West Asia escalate and the government is keeping an eye on insurance rates and freight costs amid the uncertainties, an official said Monday, a day after Iran's Parliament approved a measure to close the Strait of Hormuz , the strategic global oil choke point which connects the Persian Gulf to the Arabian Sea. The Strait carries nearly 25% of global oil shipments , nearly two-thirds of India's crude oil and half of its LNG imports and remains open for now. 'The Strait of Hormuz is open for trade for now but trade may get impacted if situation escalates. The part till Jabel Ali Free Zone in the UAE is not facing challenges as of now. Freight rates haven't increased yet for exporters. We are keeping an eye on insurance costs,' the official said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Ödeme? Dieses simple Haushaltsmittel reduziert Flüssigkeit Venen Kompass Weiterlesen Undo The parliamentary vote is not binding as the final decision rests with Iran's Supreme National Security Council, which is still deliberating the issue. Exporters said that any closure of the strait would lead to a surge in shipping insurance premiums and freight costs. Any alternative route would add to time and costs for exporters, the official added. Live Events The Federation of Indian Export Organisations said that there are temporary headwinds and there could be some short-term impact on demand and logistics—particularly in the Gulf region, which serves as a crucial hub for Indian exports . 'Increased shipping costs , longer transit times, and rising marine insurance premiums may add pressure, especially in price -sensitive sectors,' said S C Ralhan, President, FIEO. The official said that insurers may raise costs if risks continue to rise but New Delhi's ability to intervene in the matter maybe minimal as the country doesn't own any shipping line. Indian industries dependent on global supply chains for energy, chemicals, fertilizers, metals, and food products could face serious shortages and escalating costs, cautioned experts. This assumes significance as following Israeli airstrikes on Houthi forces last week tensions have escalated, placing India's westbound exports at fresh risk. Similarly, shipping threats are rising in the Red Sea, exporters said. If security conditions force shipping to reroute via the Cape of Good Hope, delivery times could increase by up to two weeks, sharply raising costs for Indian exporters of engineering goods, textiles, chemicals, and critical imports.

Agritech startup Halter becomes New Zealand's latest unicorn in $100 million fundraise
Agri-tech startup Halter has raised $100 million at a $1 billion valuation, making it one of New Zealand's rare unicorns as it ramps up US expansion of its cattle management platform for dairy farmers.

PE, VC investments fall sharply to USD 2.4 bn in May
Mumbai, Jun 23 (PTI) Funding by private equity (PE) and venture capital (VC) entities has fallen sharply in India to USD 2.4 billion in May, a report said on Monday. This is a 68 per cent drop from the USD 7.3 billion recorded in May 2024 and a 53 per cent decline from the USD 5 billion in investments in the preceding month of April, as per the report by industry lobby grouping IVCA and consultancy firm EY. EY partner Vivek Soni said he has a "cautiously optimistic" outlook on the future. There are positive domestic signs like robust GST collections, strengthening of the rupee and rate cuts, he said, hoping for a pickup in activity in the second half of the fiscal if there is an easing of global uncertainties and geopolitical conflicts. A convergence of the "bid-ask spread" between sellers and buyers' valuation expectations is also necessary for the volumes to grow, he said. By deal volumes, May 2025 witnessed 97 transactions, down 24 per cent on-year from the 128 transactions in May last year and 16 per cent compared with April 2025's 115 deals, the report said. Startup investments accounted for the largest share of PE/VC activity in May 2025, with USD 1.1 billion deployed, which is a 21 per cent increase in value over the USD 871 million in May 2024. From the sectoral perspective, financial services led the way in May 2025 with USD 758 billion across 21 deals, followed by real estate with USD 380 million.
