Delhi tops infrastructure index: E&Y survey

Our Bureau

Mumbai, Sept. 27 The cities of Surat, Chandigarh, Nagpur, Vadodara, Visakhapatnam and Jaipur ranked high when it came to indices such as city prosperity, urban governance, business environment, infrastructure and quality of life, according to a survey by global professional services provider Ernst & Young.

The list, however, dovetails the obvious eight – Delhi, Greater Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Pune and Ahmedabad, said Mr Ganesh Raj, Senior Partner and Head Real Estate Practice, Ernst &Young.

Mr Ganesh Raj presented the findings at the two-day ‘Real Estate Summit 2007, organised by the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry here on Thursday.

Close on the heels of the list were Thiruvananthapuram, Kochi, Nashik and Indore.

Panaji, Chandigarh, Pune and Ahmedabad, compete with the top six in terms of quality of life, while cities of Gujarat dominate the urban governance index.

Chandigarh ranked sixth in the city prosperity index, followed by Hyderabad and Chennai.

Delhi is the obvious leader in the infrastructure index, with Chennai and Hyderabad faring well. Visakhapatnam and Nagpur ranked high on business environment and infrastructure indices.

The survey had set aside the traditional methods of evaluating city potential on the basis of limited parameters such as population and per capita income.
