Abstract:

Time overruns has been a noteworthy issue in numerous Indian construction projects. The successful execution of construction activities and keeping them within recommended plan and cost is imperative for compelling time execution and cost execution. This thesis work is done on concentrating on noteworthy factors creating Time overruns in Indian construction industry. A valid questionnaire for the overview was produced taking into account factors for time overruns recognized from writing survey. These factors are assembled into 9 groups for time overruns and disseminated among three parts in particular Real Estate, Infrastructure and Industrial of Indian Construction Industry. The information from the survey was broke down measurably. Relative vital list system was utilized to establish out the most noteworthy variables influencing Time overruns. The result accomplished from the survey revealed that the major cause for time overruns are Clearances on Delay, Drawing Revision and Clearances from Consultant/Client/PMC, Incompetency of Labour, Unrealistic Planning and not using Monitoring and controlling Tools & Technologies, lack of Leadership qualities in Managers, Procurement Planning and Procurement Process. The study discoveries highlight the noteworthy factors and a few recommendations are given to control time overruns in Indian Construction Industry.
