Instead, it has moved to improving the transmission and distribution system that delivers power to our homes, factories and businesses. It is generating a huge demand for Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) service providers in India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>India\u2019s power transmission &amp; distribution EPC market is expected to grow at a compounded annual growth rate to touch around USD 75-88 billion in 2035 from the estimated USD 28-32 billion in FY2024-25 with continued pace driven by several government schemes, renewable energy and urbanization. This is a reliable, profitable and sustainable market sector for manufacturers, contractors and entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These expansions are being driven by government programs. Large amount is being invested in the India&#8217;s power infrastructure via Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) and National Electricity Plan. These initiatives look to reduce power losses and enhance grid reliability, making it possible to integrate renewable energy sources into the grid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-white ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/india-power-transmission-and-distribution-epc-market-growth-opportunities-and-business-potential-for-entrepreneurs-2026-2035\/#Why_the_Power_T_D_EPC_Sector_Is_Growing_Rapidly\" >Why the Power T&amp;D EPC Sector Is Growing Rapidly<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/india-power-transmission-and-distribution-epc-market-growth-opportunities-and-business-potential-for-entrepreneurs-2026-2035\/#Get_Detailed_Insights_from_This_Book_Our_Books\" >Get Detailed Insights from This Book: Our Books<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/india-power-transmission-and-distribution-epc-market-growth-opportunities-and-business-potential-for-entrepreneurs-2026-2035\/#Market_Size_and_Future_Outlook_2026%E2%80%932035\" >Market Size and Future Outlook (2026\u20132035)<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/india-power-transmission-and-distribution-epc-market-growth-opportunities-and-business-potential-for-entrepreneurs-2026-2035\/#Major_Companies_Operating_in_the_Power_T_D_EPC_Market\" >Major Companies Operating in the Power T&amp;D EPC Market<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.niir.org\/blog\/india-power-transmission-and-distribution-epc-market-growth-opportunities-and-business-potential-for-entrepreneurs-2026-2035\/#Access_Complete_Business_Plan_Electrical_Power_Transformers_Repair_Refurbishment\" >Access Complete Business Plan: Electrical Power Transformers (Repair &amp;

The speed at which projects are being announced is outpacing the capacity of firms to deliver the projects effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is particularly the case in medium-sized projects, where utilities need to have confidence in contractors but do not have to pay for large multi-national companies.

Rather than compete head-on with major EPC firms, entrepreneurs can focus on services or manufacturing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A particularly lucrative area is manufacturing equipment. India still imports critical equipment used in power infrastructure, which creates a significant demand for local manufacturing. Equipment\u2019s manufacturing units that supply reliable and affordable products can rapidly build a customer base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A further opportunity is in infrastructure-related services.
