National Infrastructure Pipeline

The National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) is a group of social and economic infrastructure projects in India over a period of five years with a sanctioned amount of ₹102 lakh crore (US$1.4 trillion). The pipeline was first made public by the Prime Minister of India during his 2019 Independence Day speech.[1][2] The Finance Minister announced that the NIP consists of 78% projects by the centre and states, and the remaining by the private sector.[2] The NIP is a pillar of government of India's aim to become a $5 trillion economy by 2025.[3]

NIP will soon be available on the "India Investment Grid (IIG)" for users to view the pipeline of infrastructure projects.[4]
