Has BIM being widely accepted in construction in India?

In India we are not using BIM extensively as yet, rather I do not know of any organization using it. I think it is a long way to go for us to use BIM.

Actually many of us have no idea of BIM and its advantage. Once it is felt that it is essential to adopt, I think every body will like to follow. Once it is used wide spread, the cost may not be a problem as it helps in every aspect of complete life cycle of a project. As per our requirement, we have switched over from just item rate contract to BOT for the convenience. Therefore, for better performance, BIM should be used in future.

Agree with Mr. Saleel ,but i think that most of people in indian construction industry are not aware from BIM. If we see the western construction industries than their construction is costlier & hard to maintain so they need BIM much more, Since in india light construction are easy to maintain by indian traditional construction method but at the time of heavy construction where cost, quality ,quantity , time & schedualing of working, precision of work with prefab elements ,are the big metter ,BIM is still not sufficiently using at all stages.

It is well known fact that whatever advance technology or concept we achieve, but the Indians are a little stubborn to new forms of whatever sort on the very first click. They first look for others to jump in to the fray of experiments and after a little bit spark of certainity only will there be a rat race.

I totally disagree it’s not yet accepted apart from only few I can say only 5% of them are working on it. Till date what matter to them is cost n not the quality. How many of them built as per the drawing provided. What my experience is that they are more towards the cost then the quality. To accept the BMI concept they will have to think wide n positive.
