Infra Visionary

DP Mhaiskar

Chairman, MEP Infrastructure

As founder and chief mentor of Ideal Road Builders (IRB), DP Mhaiskar was one of the first to be awarded a toll-collection contract. In 1995, when the government privatised the road sector, IRB entered a brand new arena of build-operate-transfer (BOT) projects with the Thane-Bhiwandi Bypass Phase I which was completed ahead of time. With his son Jayant, Mhaiskar has built and maintained many prestigious BOT projects in and around Mumbai. Chairing MEP Infrastructure Developers Pvt Ltd, which operates across 10 states in India and contributes to almost 33% of NHAI's pan-India revenue, Mhaiskar could well be called a true visionary in Indian infrastructure.
