CapEx

CapEx is a database of investment projects that involve the setting up of new capacities. The name “CapEx” is a concatenation of the short-form of Capacity Expansion, and of Capital Expenditure.

An investment project involves some capital expenditure and it involves some capacity expansion. The CapEx database is about the announcement of such projects, their implementation and their final culmination into new capacities.

The CapEx database captures projects that entail a capital expenditure of Rs.10 million or more.

The CapEx database captures new projects being announced, tracks the various events of the projects in its radar and captures the end of the project. The life-cycle of a project ends when the new capacity is created and deployed into production. Sometimes, the end is less rewarding. A project may get abandoned before its completion. Or, its implementation may get suspended because of some reason.
