new web monitoring system called PAIMANA (Project Assessment Infrastructure Monitoring and
Analytics for Nation-Building) which was officially launched on 25th September, 2025; replacing the
erstwhile OCMS-2006 (Online Computerized Monitoring System). In line with the principle of “One Data
One Entry", the PAIMANA portal is integrated with Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal
Trade (DPIIT) IPMP (Integrated Project Monitoring Portal) via Application Programming Interfaces
(APIs) enabled to automatically fetch data reported by the Central Ministries/ Departments/ Project
Implementing Agencies.
Accordingly, the web-generated flash report via the PAIMANA portal is being published from July 2025
onwards and are available at https://ipm.mospi.gov.in/ReportPage.
As of December 2025, the infrastructure central sector projects having any Central support or under the

17 Central Ministries/Departments with original cost of ₹29.68 lakh crore and cumulative expenditure of
₹19.01 lakh crore. The Line Ministries/Departments/Implementing Agencies regularly update the progress
status of the projects on IPMP, which flows to PAIMANA via APIs for further analysis and report
generation. This integration has substantially reduced manual entry, with about 60 per cent of projects
pertaining to Ministry of Road, Transport & Highways, Petroleum & Natural Gas and Coal, being updated
automatically on PAIMANA.
The portal serves as a centralized data repository for national infrastructure development and facilitates
one-click, web-generated analytical reports, contributing to data accuracy and operational efficiency.
Further, enhancements are underway to improve upon reports, simplification of input forms, and advanced
analytics for the technology enabled monitoring. Continuous efforts for onboarding of additional
stakeholders and projects are also underway and is expected to result in a subsequent increase in project
volume. Regular coordination with stakeholders through monthly review meetings and other
communications strengthens evidence-based monitoring.This information was given by the Minister of State (Independent Charge) of the Ministry of Statistics and
