Events In the starting, there was no problem in the project and achieved about 70% physical progress in Sept, 2013. Then after, due to financial crisis with the concessionaire, there was less progress in the project. Some other reasons for slow progress were land acquisition issues, additional work, GAD approved by Railway Department was different from the Scope of work. The matter was discussed with concessionaire and options were explored like- one time fund infusion, grant of Provisional Completion for Part length so that funds shall be available with concessionaire. Concessionaire also arranged funds from other Financial Institution other than Main lender. 20
Steps taken by Govt. of India or NHAI Authority issued Provisional completion certificate for part length (for which provision was not in the agreement) in Oct, 2015. However, Authority asked Concessionaire that they will not raise any claim against Authority defaults in future. Authority approved a proposal of fund infusion for the project. Now, the progress of the project is about 98%. 21
Similarity in Road Projects and Urban Development Projects 1. Huge Land Acquisition 2. Shifting of Utilities and its relocation 3. Co-ordination with different agencies 4. Require huge funding
Some Urban Development Projects taken on PPP Mode 1. In Delhi (ring road) opposite AIIMS in East Kidwai Nagar MoUD has entrusted NBCC the project of re-delopment of GPRA at East Kidwai Nagar on 86 acres land with estimated cost of Rs. 5000 cr inclusive of maintenance period of 30 years. Re-developed space will be available for lease of Central Gov./PSUs etc Cost of construction shall be meet out through lease of entire office space & 10% Residential Space.
