Precast Concrete Show

How Amrapali Killed India’s Construction Revolution

Roshan Baladevan

What if the technology that could have solved India’s housing crisis was destroyed by the very company that adopted it?

In this gripping episode, we uncover the real story behind the Amrapali Group scam—not just as a ₹5,000 crore real estate fraud, but as the single event that set back India’s construction innovation by a decade. While headlines focused on shell companies and stolen funds, they missed a bigger tragedy: the public execution of precast concrete’s reputation.

Inside this episode:

  • How 42,000 middle-class families were robbed of their homes and peace of mind
  • The chilling forensic details: 150 fake companies, government silence, and financial fraud at an industrial scale
  • How precast concrete—one of the world’s most advanced construction technologies—was wrongly blamed for Amrapali’s failures
  • Why the real issue wasn’t the technology, but the unskilled and corrupt execution behind it
  • The ripple effect: how banks, authorities, and the Indian public turned against precast construction overnight
  • How India’s housing and infrastructure ambitions were derailed by one company’s incompetence
  • Global proof that precast works—from Singapore to Dubai—and how India missed the bus
  • The roadmap to restoring trust in precast and reigniting India’s stalled construction revolution

This episode isn’t just a cautionary tale—it’s a wake-up call. We don’t need to abandon innovation. We need ethical leadership, qualified teams, and honest execution.
