Trial Balance

India has developed and tested various mechanisms and processes for more effective public-private partnerships in the roads sector, with the goal of achieving an optimal balance of value-for-money and business interests. This report examines various public-private partnership models that India has tested and modified along the way toward its attempts to find the most appropriate model. It also examines the previous and ongoing experiences of the Government of India to create the necessary mechanisms and systemization, policies and legislation, and flexibility for contract negotiation, to allow public and private stakeholders to work cohesively in their effort to improve India's road infrastructure.
