VVIP Infratech is building India’s water infrastructure — but the journey behind those ₹1000 Cr government projects isn’t as glamorous as it looks.

In this episode of The Green Sharks Podcast by Green Portfolio, we sit down with the Executive Director of VVIP Infratech Ltd to decode the truth about government tenders, EPC contracts, project delays, and the risks no one talks about.

From bidding for multi-crore projects across states like UP and Uttarakhand to handling payment cycles, imported machinery, and scaling beyond 56 MLD STPs — this episode goes deep into how infra companies really operate behind the scenes.

📌 In This Episode, We Discuss:

What it takes to win a government tender
Why payments were delayed for up to a year in the past
How EPC bidding is fiercely competitive
The real profit margins in infra
Risk of milestone-based payments
₹1000+ Cr order book: What’s next for VVIP?
The shift from private to public sector projects

Whether you're an investor curious about infrastructure stocks or an aspiring entrepreneur in the EPC space, this episode is loaded with unfiltered insights you won't find in any con call.

🎧 Watch now to uncover what no one tells you about government projects.
