In short

A Deloitte report says India’s infrastructure problem is now less about raising money and more about making projects investable. It says private participation and complex approvals are major hurdles.

The report also says government efforts have helped bring private money into renewables and highways. It does not say what policy changes will happen next.

The report says respondents see private-sector participation and complex approvals as major obstacles, while public initiatives have attracted private investment in greenfield sectors such as renewables and highways. The immediate next step is unclear because the reporting does not give policy action or project-level numbers.
