L&T betting big on digital workers, says CFO

Larsen & Toubro is betting big on automation, robotics and technology-led solutions to scale up construction activities as increasing manpower alone may not be a viable option for growth, a top official of the company said.

“What we have been doing over the last 3-4 years in particular, is to create automation to the level that we did not expect construction industry to engage. Our effort has been to automate as much as possible,” said L&T chief financial officer R Shankar Raman at ICICI Securities India Investors Conference 2026.
