NHAI Exceeds Target- 5,614 km Highways Built in FY25

NHAI Exceeds FY25 Capex Target with ₹2,500 Billion Spend and 5,614 km Highways Built

NHAI achieved a capital expenditure (capex) of ₹2,500 billion and constructed 5,614 kilometers of National Highways, exceeding its construction goal of 5,150 km. This is a significant milestone for India’s road and highway development sector.

Here’s why this achievement matters for India’s infrastructure growth:

1. The numbers show that highway construction is gaining momentum. Completing more than the target indicates that project execution has become more efficient. For commuters, transporters, and logistics companies, this means smoother roads, reduced travel time, and fewer bottlenecks.

2. Meeting and surpassing capex targets builds trust among investors and stakeholders. It signals that large-scale infrastructure projects in India are progressing as planned, encouraging more public and private investment into road development projects .

3. Each kilometer of highway built supports thousands of jobs and activates local economies. From construction labor to material suppliers, this development has a strong multiplier effect on employment and regional trade.

4.India aims to develop over 100,000 km of highways by 2030. Exceeding yearly construction targets shows that this goal is not only achievable but already underway. With strong momentum in FY25, NHAI is paving the way for a more connected and mobile India.

By exceeding both spending and construction goals in FY25, NHAI has demonstrated strong leadership in national infrastructure development. These results are not just about roads—they’re about growth, connectivity, and building a stronger foundation for India's future.
