BEML CMD Rajasekhar: Five factors that will boost demand for CE

The recovery in the construction equipment (CE) industry has been surprising and sharp since July 2020. While part of the growth is optical, coming on a low base of the year, early recovery in the rural economy and strong road activity have spurred growth in the industry. A recent ICRA survey with CE dealers indicated a healthy improvement in demand for new machines; the dealers hope to register volume growth for FY21.

Rajasekhar identifies five factors that were responsible for a pandemic-led impact on the industry, and five drivers of growth.
