EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Pre - Feasibility Study for Redevelopment of Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium
Sports Complex under PPP Mode

1.Executive Summary
Background
Sports India (SI), the implementation body under Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports (MYAS) currently
operates and maintains five stadiums in Delhi (i.e. Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, Indira Gandhi Stadium, Dr.
Karni Singh Shooting Range, Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Swimming Pool Complex and Major Dhyan
Chand National Stadium).

SI intends to improve and upgrade existing sports infrastructure to world class standards and assess the
potential of developing other sports, allied and supporting commercial activities at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium
and Indira Gandhi Stadium on Public Private Partnership (PPP) basis.

SI has sought guidance from NITI Ayog to assess development activity at JLN Stadium with the primary
objectives stated below1:

► The stadium should address the needs of all sections of sports community
► The development should be financially self-sustainable
► The design should incorporate hostel / hotel / service apartment accommodation requirement for
players and coaches (3 to 5 star accommodation)
► The stadium should be able to accommodate a footfall of 20 lakh
► The stadium should be open and accessible to every strata of society
► Sporting facilities for senior athletes should not be affected during construction phase
► The design and operative mechanism of the stadium should encourage younger generation to use
the facilities
► The stadium should adhere to international standards of athletic events

Niti Aayog has appointed Ernst & Young LLP (hereafter referred to as “EY LLP” and consultant) to carry out
a Pre-Feasibility Study for Redevelopment of Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium (JLN Stadium) and Indira Gandhi
Stadium (IG Stadium) on PPP to achieve the objectives.

Existing Situation
Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium is located in Delhi. It is
developed over a land parcel of 100 acres with a
seating capacity of ~60,000. The stadium is designed
and constructed to meet international sports standards.
It is owned and managed by SI on behalf of Ministry of
Youth Affairs and Sports (MYAS).

The stadium is located in one of the most affluent


catchments with major residential areas near the
stadium. This includes localities like Defence Colony,
Sewa Nagar, Lodhi Colony, and Pragati Vihar Khan
Market, Khanna Market and Meherchand Market.

1
The objectives have been identified in consultation with SI and NITI Aayog for self-sustainable development of sports infrastructure
facility.

Sports Complex under PPP Mode

Despite being strategically placed to cater to the affluent, it is understood that it is currently being by low
income groups.

Accessibility: JLN Stadium is easily accessible, through roads, metro and other modes of public transport.
The nearest metro stations for accessing the stadium are Jangpura and JLNS, located at a distance of 300-
800 meters.

Development Master Plan


The objective of developing JLN stadium is to introduce “Sports in the DNA of the nation”. A sports mini
city shall be developed which would l offer state of the art training facilities. It would be open and accessible
to all classes of people/ strata of society at national and international level.

Based on preliminary assessment of the existing facilities at JLN Stadium 2 and proposed objective for overall
development of the stadium, two options were evaluated for undertaking financial viability.

i. 40 FAR as per Master Plan for Delhi 2021

Planning Norms

Particulars The stadium complex falls under Zone D of the Zonal


(Sq.M)
Site Area Development plan under Master Plan of Delhi (MPD)
3,87,302
Allowed Ground Coverage @20% 2021. It is categorized as Public Service-3 (PS-3)
77,460
Consumed Ground coverage 53,417
under Public-Semi-Public Zone which includes
Remaining utilizable Ground Coverage 24,043
Sports Facilities / complex/ Stadium/ Sports Centre.
Allowed built up @40 FAR 1,54,921
With the applicable FAR (Floor Area Ratio) of 40, a
Consumed built up 92,830
ground coverage of 20% is permitted as per existing
Remaining built up area 62,091
Delhi Bye Laws.
As per MPD-2021 under PS-3 5% sports related commercial activities are permitted which includes multi-
use stadium for exhibitions, trade shows, multiple sports related events, extreme sports, academies, sports
medicine, water slides, residential accommodation like hostels, ward residences etc.

ii. Transit Oriented Development or TOD policy


The National TOD policy focuses on creating high density mixed
land use development of areas falling in the influence zone of transit
stations, i.e. within a walking distance of 500-800 m or along the
transit corridor, provided the station is within 1km of site.
In case of JLN stadium, the nearest metro station, i.e. Jangpura and
JLN are within 300 and 800 mts respectively. On account of this,
the TOD norms shall apply wherein an FAR of 400 can be utilized
for development.

2
The consultant conducted site visits of JLN and IG stadium and carried out primary surveys with users and SI, in order to evaluate
existing user profile and assessment of infrastructure facilities.

Recommendations
Based on the conceptual development options for 40 and 400 FAR, financial analysis was carried out by the
consultant. The table below summarizes the key results of the analysis.

40 FAR 400 FAR

Particulars Unit Value Value

Total project cost INR Cr 489.5 3,929


Annual revenues (stabilized operations in
INR Cr 305.5 2,878
6th Year)
Equity IRR % 18% 18%
Annual concession fee
INR crore 100 750
(escalated by 5% year-on-year)
% of total revenues
Revenue share – bidding parameter (from sports and non- 26% 34%
sports/ commercial)
Concession period
a. For stadia years a. 30 years
b. For commercial b. 45 years
Given the steep timelines for development of JLN stadium on PPP, it is recommended to undertake
construction in a phased manner. The first phase shall be based on 40 FAR option with incremental proposed
plan of 400 FAR to be taken up in phases. If the Authority chooses the option of 400 FAR, several statutory
approvals shall be required from SI prior to the transaction phase which may result in implementation delays..

As per the financial analysis, for an equity IRR of 18% the revenue share is estimated to be between 25% -
30% with a provision of an annual concession fee of INR 100 crores escalated annually.

Proposed project structure

A DBFOT concession is proposed for development of JLN stadium for a 45 year concession period and a 30
year period for stadia operations. The model has been summarized in the figure below.

Key contours of the model are:

Page | 13
Pre - Feasibility Study for Redevelopment of Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium
Sports Complex under PPP Mode

► To upgrade current sports facilities, operate and maintain the same for 30 years as per specified
performance standards.
► Further, develop additional sporting facilities, operate and maintain them for 30 years
► Develop, operate and maintain commercial areas as per applicable laws for [45 (30+15) - 60 (30+30)
yrs.].
► Sports facilities to be regulated by SI but operated and maintained by private sector

Way forward
Based on the recommendations for development options, SI may take the proposal to bidding stage. As per
standard industry practice, a two stage bidding process shall be undertaken wherein the first phase is the
qualification stage to shortlist applicants based on technical and financial criteria. The second stage is the
bid stage wherein the Request for Proposal along with draft Concession Agreement is shared with the
shortlisted bidders to invite financial bid. The bidding parameter for selection of preferred bidder shall be
based on highest revenues share (the bidder offering highest per cent of total gross revenues from sports &
non-sports activities shall be selected).

Prior to floating the RFP documents, SI shall seek approval from the competent ministries (MYAS and
Ministry of Finance – Department of Economic Affairs).
An indicative timeline for the same is presented below:

2.Project Appreciation – Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium


Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium is the national stadium of India, located in South Central part of Delhi along the
periphery of Lutyen’s Delhi area. The stadium is developed over 100 acres with a seating capacity of 60,000.
The stadium is designed and constructed to meet the international standards of the Asian Football
Confederation (AFC), the International Federation of Association Football (FIFA) and the International
Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF). The stadium is owned and managed by SI on behalf of MYAS
(infrastructure owned and managed by the central government). The institutional framework for sports in
India and current schemes undertaken by GoI for promoting sports is detailed at Annexure A1 of this report.

The Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium was constructed by the Government of India to host the athletic events and
ceremonies of the 1982 Asian Games. It also hosted the 1989 Asian Championships in Athletics. The stadium
was renovated/upgraded for the 2010 Commonwealth Games (CWG), hosting the track and field events and
opening and closing ceremonies.

Accessibility

Figure 1: JLN Stadium - Accessibility & sports facility overview


JLN Stadium is easily accessible through
roads (as depicted in Figure 1) and is in
close vicinity of ring road of Delhi that
circles around the key destinations and
offers connectivity to main centers of
NCR region.

Elevated road over Barapullah Nallah


was developed as an exclusive corridor
for the sports personnel between the
games village in East Delhi and JLN
Stadium during the Common Wealth
Games 2010. This road is operational and
provides an efficient connectivity for
general public to reach stadium from far
off areas of East Delhi and NCR region.

The nearest metro station for accessing


the stadium is Jangpura and JLNS metro
station located at a distance of 300-800
meters from the stadium.

Sports Facility Overview


JLN stadium was developed as a multi-use sports ground where several national and international sports
events have been held in the past. The stadium was constructed with an objective to meet the international
standards of football and athletic sports events. The stadium houses the following sports activities3:-

The main athletic track is located inside the stadium forming a periphery of the main football ground. Practice
area outside the main stadium constitutes of Javelin throw, shot put and discus throw along with a practice
track. The stadium incorporates two full size football grounds, one futsal ground and a small park for non-
sports activities. The main ground is used to host football sports events and futsal ground with synthetic pitch
has been constructed for small practice sessions and is used to train children below the age of 10-12 years.

JLN stadium also houses infrastructure for archery wherein dedicated space is allocated with high boundaries
and different target ranges. Other sports facilities, like badminton, basketball, lawn tennis and table tennis
facilities are located in close proximity to each other. Four volleyball outdoor courts are provided. Weightlifting
area has ample space for pre-workout on the ground floor and the practice area is located in the basement.
The stadium also provides hostel facility to athletes and campers within the complex with fitness center.

Pre - Feasibility Study for Redevelopment of Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium
Sports Complex under PPP Mode

The primary source of revenue of the stadium is from users registered under the ‘Come and Play Scheme 4’
and renting out assets to national teams/ league franchises. Use of facilities for hosting events such as
concerts and other non-sports activities are also undertaken. SI has improved their level of service offerings
through online viewing and ease of booking of stadia for sporting events to enhance asset utilization.

Catchment Area
A review of leisure and sporting facilities in the catchment area and benchmarking principles indicate that
local or municipal recreation or sporting facilities have a primary catchment radius of approximately 5kms
and a secondary catchment radius of 10kms. Approximately 75% to 85% of users reside within a 5 km radius
while the remaining 15% to 25% come from areas within the 5km to 10km radius of the facility. Developing
a stadium with state of the art sports infrastructure will attract users from a much wider catchment area 5.

The catchment area is also influenced by a number of other factors, including range and quality of facilities
and services offered, natural and built barriers i.e. road connectivity, travel times and the availability of any
other competing facilities. Considering regional planning principles, it is common that facilities usually share
catchment areas, particularly secondary catchment area. The map below illustrates catchment area within 5

academy trainees6. At JLN stadium, majority of users registered under come and play users scheme have
enrolled for athletics (track & field, short put, javelin, etc).

Figure 3: Facility utilization level

Stakeholder’s Perspective
It is imperative to identify major stakeholders of the project who would help define a vision for the
development.

A comprehensive stakeholder engagement would help identify the requirements of the sports fraternity and
accordingly design the facilities. This would also help achieve higher utilization of the infrastructure facilities.

Sports India
SI intends to upgrade the current facility at JLN stadium into a world class sports stadium in terms of
infrastructure and utilization. Below are some of the key objectives which SI aims to achieve7.

„ The stadium should address the needs of all sections of sports community.
„ The development should be financially self-sustainable
„ The design should incorporate hostel / hotel / service apartment accommodation requirement for
players and coaches (3 to 5 star accommodation).
„ The stadium should be able to house a footfall with 20 lakh viewers
„ The stadium should be open and accessible to all classes of people/ strata of society
„ Sporting facilities for senior athletes should not be impacted during construction phase
„ The design and operative mechanism of the stadium should encourage younger generation to use
the facilities
„ The stadium should adhere to international standards of athletic events

3.Market Study
Market study is the most crucial aspect driving project conceptualization and feasibility assessment. It is
critical to understand the competitive assessment framework of the market in which the stadium is expected
to operate and expected footfall. The first key task for assessing potential development in these proposed
facilities is to determine the market demand for each offered sport as well as latent demand for new facilities.
This was undertaken through conducting a detailed site assessment and study the competitive developments
in the vicinity of the stadium. This section undertakes detailed assessment of competitive sports and retail
facilities in the vicinity of JLN stadium.

Competitive Sports Facility


Figure 4: Competitive sports facilities

Jawaharlal Lal Nehru stadium was developed with a


vision of providing world class sports infrastructure to
the next generation of sports talent of India,
irrespective of the economic strata they belong. The
current sport facilities provided by SI in JLN stadium
are highly subsidized in order to cater the needs of
dedicated sportsmen which majorly embark from low
to middle economic strata.

Considering the geographical location of JLN stadium


in Delhi, some of the major sports complexes which
provide similar sporting infrastructure and allied
activities were assessed8. These included Siri Fort
Sports Complex, Saket sports Complex and Thyagraj
stadium. Saket and Siri Fort sports complex are
operated by Delhi Development Authority (DDA) and
are mainly influenced by higher income group users as
compared with JLN stadium.

Pre - Feasibility Study for Redevelopment of Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium
Sports Complex under PPP Mode

A comparative analysis between JLN Stadium, Siri Fort and Saket Sports Complex was done on the following
parameters:

1) Provision of sports facilities


2) Provision of non – sports facilities
3) Land availability and utilization
4) User profiles
5) Membership options
6) Number of academies / camps

A) Provision of Sports and Non-Sports Facilities

Notes:

1. Sporting facilities includes cricket, football, athletics, wrestling, weightlifting, cycling, shooting,
badminton, lawn tennis etc.
2. Non – Sports facilities include aerobics, yoga, recreational games such as bowling, virtual games etc.

The figure illustrates the gap in non-sport activities that other competing sport complexes offer to its users
ultimately leading to an enhanced sport experience with other allied recreational activities. Effective land
utilization of JLNS is significantly lower as compared to Siri fort and Saket that have demonstrated
substantially higher utilization owing to their small area and no. of users availing higher number of facilities.
The higher number of offering of these sport complexes have significantly mobilized the youth in catchment
area to inculcate these sports/recreational activities in their daily life and therefore, sport complexes are now
a hub of youth affairs.

Sports Complex under PPP Mode

Figure 3: Comparison of facility infrastructure between competing facilities

The land utilization ratio of Siri Fort is the highest as compared to the other two stadiums. It offers over 20
activities in less than 50% area of JLN.

B) User Profile
The primary survey conducted highlight that >70% % of users at JLN have an average annual income of 4 -
8 lakhs p.a., while for Siri Fort Sports and Saket Sports Complex is majority are high income group users.

C) Membership Options
The table compares the membership options available at the three stadiums.

JLN does not offer casual membership as well as corporate membership. This restricts the number of users
as compared to the other competing sports facilities. The minimum membership tenure is 1 year while the
other sports complex offer flexibility in defining the membership period. Also, the number of academies are
much lower as compared to Saket Sports Complex and Siri Fort Complex.

Transit Oriented Development or TOD policy

As per the National Transit oriented development policy, TOD needs to integrate land use and transport
planning and aims to develop planned sustainable urban growth centers, having walk able and livable
communes with high density mixed land-use. Citizens have access to open green and public spaces and at
the same time transit facilities are efficiently utilized.

It focuses on creation of high density mixed land use development in the influence zone of transit stations,
i.e. within the walking distance of (500-800 m) transit station or along the corridor in case the station spacing
is about 1km and advocates pedestrian trips to access various facilities such as shopping, entertainment and
work. Literature study for ToD is attached as Annexure A.5.
Figure 8: JLN Stadium Complex–Metro station distance

In case of JLN stadium, Jangpura Stadium open to the East


Gate of the stadium and more than 50 % of the area falls
under the 500 Meter radius from the Metro station. From the
JLN Metro station on the same Violet line, the Zone of
influence covers more than 50 % of the complex area under
the 800 Meter radius zone. Since there are no protected
monuments amongst the 52 A.S.I enlisted monuments in
the vicinity of the stadium complex, full utilization of TOD
norms should be applicable to JLN stadium complex. The
TOD policy in Delhi is under review presently and is
presently being scrutinized on project basis as well.

TOD Policy – within 300 m of nearest

Potential for up-gradation/ optimizing of the existing infrastructure

Apart from the existing sports facilities scattered across the 95 Acre campus, to make the campus a holistic
fitness cum sports center for training and come and play basis, following components have been identified
for come and play and general fitness purposes.

Figure 9: Plan of the proposed Multi-Purpose/ Multi Sports Hall

An additional multi use indoor sports hall without seating capacity to accommodate one 1 indoor Basketball
ball court or 2 Badminton Courts or 4 Table Tennis Court has been proposed to ensure National / International
level indoor training venue for the said sports. A 10 m shooting academy is also proposed as along with
Archery that is one sport which is picked up by amateurs across the age groups. A 50 m Olympic size pool
for fitness and recreational purposes has also been identified. A state of the art fitness center/ gymnasium
specially made available for the elite athletes as well as for come and play on differential timing is also a part
of the programme. A cafeteria with an attached nutritionist to monitor the diet intake for the athletes is tabled
under up gradation of facilities. The total investment totals up to 73 crores including contingencies and taxes.

Analyzing best practice sports stadiums/ complexes

Sports stadiums and infrastructure remains the pride of the nation and become the much needed symbol of
constructive young India. These stadiums not only provide match playing venues but also becomes centers
of training and excellence in sports. Already with the training programme and come and play schemes, most
of the Sports India Stadiums extensively support sports in the country. Being the kind of large infrastructure
needed to host international events, maintaining these stadiums/ venues after the events are over or in
between events remains a challenge across the world. We have studied best practices in stadiums via-a –
vis Olympic & world cup requirements to host a match. For Olympic venues, Athletics and football stadiums
have been studied. World cup venues for football, the redevelopment plans after the events, the viability
plans for maintaining sports with an added product mix and stadiums fallen to disrepair & disuse due to lack
of foresight across many venues have all been studied to understand the life cycle of a stadium, the
international match holding capability and the much needed sustainability of the project via supporting
functions. A list of major sports international events which could be held in the stadium have also been
identified along with their requirements. Details on best practices sports stadium with allied facilities and
support infrastructure as enclosed in Annexure A.

In case of 400 FAR, the areas under the stands which have been identified for sports retail can also be
completely left vacant for international matches and set up as the built up area available is sufficient to
accommodate the component of retail and sports related commercial.

Creating a Viable Sports Eco-System


„ Benchmarking and analyzing best practice in sports stadiums/complexes with commercially viable
programs and components.
„ Identifying & utilizing the unused spaces within the stadium complex for Sports related retail,
commercial and relevant functions to ensure footfall and generate revenues.
„ Analyzing and identifying the sports retail, commercial, quasi-commercial sports mix viability
applicable to the stadium.

As a first step towards creation of a sports ecosystem Identification and utilization of the unused spaces
within the stadium complex was done for Sports related retail, commercial and relevant functions to ensure
footfall and generate revenues.

The floor area available under the stands is a potential area which is presently not being optimally utilized.
The entire premise of getting in maximum footfall also needs to include sports supporting activities like sports
retail with Decathlon, Nike, Adidas, local sports equipment & sports fitness retailers, fine dining and health &
nutrition based restaurants, food court, health cafes, workshops, sports club, Library, Museum, fitness Centre
and we work offices/ sports media offices for the entire complex to get activated with footfalls and as
spectators to the practicing athletes/ sports players.

Of the total floor plates available on each floor under the stands, the following table shows the area which
has been identified as areas which may be used for Sports retail and sports commercial purposes. The
maximum floor areas are available on the ground and first floor of the stadium.

Analyzing Sports Mix Viability


The Non-Sports of the programme has been designed as non-professional sports to ensure a sports centric
ambience, spirit and fitness as a lifestyle. To ensure that the Stadium complex gets in a wider pool of players,
come and play members, coaches, professional sports players, Elite Amateur athletes are relevant.

Adventure / Extreme Sports Hub

Delhi as a city lacks any avenues for Adventure sports or Endurance /Obstacle courses kind of training or
recreational facilities which are much in demand and people often travel to nearby states during weekends
and otherwise to avail the same experience. We have identified a set of 8 Sports Adventure zones which are
recreational in nature but still remain competitive in spirit. The idea is to generate the JLNS Adventure hub
as a weekend get away with Virtual Reality games, Go Karting tracks, Yoga- Zumba /Meditation, Zip lining,
Climb Central kind of activities which require more open areas and very little built infrastructure. In the
background of the stadium, surrounded by Elite Athletes, it is an ambience one cannot match. Getting the
footfalls for this and the sports clubs too may eventually lead to a wider pool of sports players, Athletes to
choose from.

To be designed/ planned as a support activity to the Sports Club or as an independent activity could be left
to the discretion of the developer. The prime purpose of introducing Sports retail/ food court within the entire
planning matrix is to charge and activate the sporting areas during the non-sports event days which tend to
go passive otherwise. Also a revenue generation and support to the maintenance of the sports infrastructure
could be looked at, based on the financial feasibility of the project. Chess club, Snooker, pool, Squash courts,
Tennis etc. could easily become a part of the program and lead to indirect increase of foot falls.

Sports Academies & Sports University

Studying some of the top sports Academies and Sports Universities across the world, a career in Sports
Journalism, coaching, sports medicine, sports Sciences, Research in the same field, nutrition, bio mechanics,
performance analysis etc. lacks in the country on a holistic level. Also to be included in the University
curriculum is a basic graduation/post-graduation course with highest applicable sports Quota in the country.

A compilation of top sports courses and Universities across the world and India is compiled below. Such a
program not just brings in revenues but also provides the much needed base resource for training coaches,
indigenous research, performance management, nutrition rehabilitation etc. both as career options in sports
as well as trained skillset in the sports sector of India

Retail, Malls, Restaurant/ Sports Retail/ food court

The Retail zone would be designed as per the commercial viability of the project and anticipating the
recreational and entertainment need of the residents, the zone could also include a shopping plaza/ arcade,
spa, salon, health and fitness equipment stores , and other recreation facilities which are sports centric or
relevant.

The retail sector could also could have a supermarket or hyper-mart, large grocery shops, shops selling
sports branded goods, consumer durable outlets, postal services, retail banks, fine dining restaurants or
popular food chains, Sports club, clinics, medical stores etc.

Government offices/ Semi government offices

Being centrally located, there already exist many government / semi government offices in and around JLN
stadium. Scope Complex, IHC, NBCC and many other government and semi government departments have
been the area for decades and there is demand for more. Presently Income tax department already occupies
the 2nd floor of the JLN stadium. Similar Government department are expected to occupy the office sector
with substantial revenue generation.

Commercial offices

To infuse young India, young energy and sports into the DNA of the system, there are also collaborative
offices spaces like ‘We work’ set ups identified for the area. Also sports related media, publication, talent
hunt agencies, Sports events, studios are expected to be set up in the premises.

Residential zone

The residential zone is envisaged as one which is relevant to the activities taking place in the stadium
complex. A combination of Hostels, Service apartments and Hotels makes up the residential zone as
compared to typical housing of the government / private sector.

Hostels

Hostels are already a requirement due to the presence of sports academies, university, training camps and
coaching which takes place round the year. Elite Amateur Sports players in various disciplines could be
accommodated here during the training period. A 500-600 capacity hostel can be planned.

Service Apartments

1 BHK or 2 BHK service apartments could be constructed to accommodate athletes and coaches from
outside the country.

Hotel with convention facilities

The stadium complex is envisaged as a hub of international sports events and also sports training. Apart
from local sports players and the elite athletes already training and staying in sports hostels, we anticipate
sports conferences and conventions taking place here apart from Sports performance and management
training. Players, coaches, sports officials, sports & fitness enthusiasts from across the country and world
are expected to travel here for recreational, matches and sports medicine, injury, rehabilitation and training
purposes. To accommodate the same, the component of Hotels, Hostels and Service apartments as
components add more to the program than a conventional housing set up. 1, 4 star hotel with 250 keys and
1, 3 star hotel with approximately 200 keys can be proposed.

Support infrastructure

Apart from the allied infrastructure such as parking ECS accommodation, waste and water management, this
section lists out the other support infrastructure for the sports component.

To start with the road sections; the main road leading up to the stadium complex and the parking should
cater to the influx of spectators in their numbers calculated individually as vehicular and pedestrians. For this
the road sections should be in adherence to the National building codes and the local byelaws, should be
appropriately marked with signage and markings that should be clearly visible in the night and day. A clear
and appropriate designing of the wide pavements meant to cater to the large number of spectators during
the sporting events is a must should be adhered to. A clear division of service lines such as power, storm

Page | 40
Pre - Feasibility Study for Redevelopment of Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium
Sports Complex under PPP Mode

water and sewer should be planned as per NBC and the local byelaws with appropriate provisions for easy
maintenance time to time.

Apart from the above, easy access for old and handicapped, benches, dustbins, ticket vending shelters
should be equally and appropriately distributed for a hassle free and smooth operations during any large
sporting event within the stadium complex.

The entire development is interspersed with large tracts of green spaces distinguished as green belts, visual
greens, and recreational greens. The zone is planned with amenities and utilities designed to conform to
internationally accepted standards, integrating latest technology, and addressing environmental concerns to
ensure quality sports facilities and quality of life.

Proposed Product Mix & Master Plan


Figure 15: Design concept: Mandala

Page | 41
Pre - Feasibility Study for Redevelopment of Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium
Sports Complex under PPP Mode

The Mandala: The concept plan of the stadium complex development is derived from the symbol of Sri
Chakra or the primordial energy source out of which all creation emanates. A trinity of Gyan Shakti
(Knowledge), Ichcha Shakti (Will) and Kriya Shakti (Action) pertaining to sports , knowledge, education,
sciences, sports academies, sports university, competitions, training, performance management, coaching,
sporting events and excellence in sports is what this complete Mandala intents to complete in the sports life
cycle. The 8 petalled Mandala with its Centre being the source of energy represents the stadium at the Centre
with its 8 hubs created around the stadium supporting & augmenting the energy of Young India energy and
sports excellence. We can provide the best of facilities but they are built around human beings at the core.

To generate a sports culture which pulls in a wider pool of athletes, a wider pool of access as well as relevant
activities need to be curated. After all, talent does not differentiate between classes. To ensure the same,
the programme of the non-professional sports has been designed to bring in people across the strata of the
society. It caters to low income group as well as high income group without differentiating. These hubs create
environments which even through recreational sports keep the spirit of competition and excellence alive.

The Observing how parents of these future athletes in both IG & JLN stadium complexes spend time while
their wards train and practice, it makes sense to in some ways include them in the process as they remain
highly invested. It could be on the lines of skill based certification courses or workshops of short duration run
by National Institute of Sports.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Pre - Feasibility Study for Redevelopment of Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium
under PPP Mode

4.Financial Analysis
Project Structure
A wide spectrum of models have emerged in development and management of infrastructure facilities which
enable private sector participation through guided risk sharing mechanism in providing efficient level of
services. As per World Bank report on models in PPP, the project structuring vary from short-term simple
management contracts (with or without investment requirements), long-term and very complex BOT form, to
divestiture. These models vary mainly by:

► Ownership of capital assets


► Responsibilities for investment
► Assumption of risk and
► Duration of contract
PPPs can help the government fast track infrastructure development and therefore it is imperative to create
favorable policies and guidelines in order to attract private investments for a sustainable development goal.
PPPs can be explored for creating infrastructure through Built – Operate Transfer (BOT) models by
contracting construction companies specializing in building multi-purpose centers and allowing professional
private sector entities to manage and control the existing sports infrastructure with the objective of building
commercial models and converting the same into revenue centers. Higher asset utilization and revenue
generation could in turn incentivize sports infrastructure creation.

Various states in India such as Gujarat and Rajasthan, have delineated the role of PPP in their sports policy
while other states such as Madhya Pradesh have already started development of sports cities via the PPP
mode. The sports policy of Haryana, a leading sporting state, defines in depth the need for development of
sports facilities when developing new commercial/ residential spaces. 9 Keeping in mind the need of
developing places for development and promotion of sports. Such provisions can have a long term impact
on improving the sports culture in every state. Timely planning and development of sports infrastructure
seems to the current problem. PPP as an enabler in sports infrastructure has been further discussed in
Annexure A.6.

Project Development Concept


Sustainable Sports Ecosystem – Only Sports, Nothing but Sports

The development concept for this project envisages that


the selected PPP concessionaire shall be given rights
Sports India
wherein the responsibility of developing and
commercialization of the project facility shall be
undertaken. The overall objective is to provide and
Concessionaire (DBFOT) improve the quality of service experienced by users with
potential revenue based developments at JLN stadium.
The project structure envisages participation of private
developer on DBFOT basis where the private operator
Commercial: would have the flexibility to design, construct additional

sports facility and commercialization of the project commercial space. The objectives of the proposed model
involve the following:

► To upgrade current sports facilities and operate and maintain the facilities for 30 years as per
specified performance standards.
► Further additionally develop additional sporting facilities and operate and maintain these facilities for
30 years
► Develop, operate and maintain commercial areas as per applicable laws for [45 (30+15) - 60 (30+30)
yrs.].
► Sports SI facilities to be regulated by SI but operated and maintained by private sector

Figure 17: DBFOT Model

Given the current investment climate in India, the project structure has been widely used across various
infrastructure sector such as roads, power & transmission and airports wherein it provides the developer the
opportunity by entering into financing agreements with lenders and equity investors in the form of support
during the construction and operation phases. The supporting revenue returns realized from commercial
development shall be well accepted by developers/Investors. Hence it is recommended to adopt a similar
project structure for JLN stadium. The consultant further analyzed best international practices for evaluating
different project structures followed under PPP to implement and manage such infrastructure facilities. The
best international practices are covered in Annexure A.7.

Risk Allocation
Contractual structure are influenced by a number of factors. If the fundamentals of a PPP transaction are
well thought through, particularly in relation to risk allocation, it is possible to finance and execute such
transactions that represent value despite current challenges in funding and execution.

Cost and time overruns will largely be driven by the type of contract used and by the experience and
competency of the contractor. It is important that the contractual structure protects the public sector from the
financial consequence of delays in the delivery of proposed infrastructure. The various risks associated with
the different phases of the project life cycle and the mitigation strategies have been tabulated in table 32
below.

Table 20: Risk matrix

Risk description Risk mitigation

Project development phase


Delay in land acquisition The land parcels identified for commercial development in JLN stadium to
be provided by authority to the concessionaire as per agreed timelines.
Over runs 1. Fixed cost contract with contractor with adequate predefined penalties
1. Cost 2. Fixed time contract with adequate pre-defined penalties
2. Time The risk lies with the Concessionaire
Delays in project ► The Project contracts should provide for significant penalties for such
development delay
► SI may assist the developer in obtaining necessary consents and
clearances from governmental agencies.
Project construction phase
Funding risk ► Depending on the project development option, funding risk has to be
borne by the private developer. With SI providing some form of
support, this risk is mitigated to a very large extent.
Project completion risk ► Concession Agreement should address the issues related to
Concessionaire’s default in this case.
► Strict project monitoring by the Authority/Independent Consultant is
required.
► Contracts for mandatory works may be structured as a fixed-price and
fixed-schedule contract, with stiff liquidated damages for non-
compliance. Performance guarantees may also be stipulated.
► Insurance package involving Contractors All Risk, and Third Party
Liability
Latent defect risk ► The possibility of loss or damage arising from latent defects in the
Facilities included in the Project Assets is also a big risk.
► Wherever possible, the design and construction of the facilities
required for a Project must be performed or procured by the
Concessionaire.
Design risk The possibility that the Concessionaire’s designs may not achieve the
required output specifications.
► Output specifications to be detailed out in Concession Agreement.
► Design warranty.

Risk description Risk mitigation

► Patent and latent defect liability.


► Consultation with and review by Authority (but review must not lead to
input specifications by Institution).
► Independent Engineer appointment to resolve disputes.
Market, demand or volume The possibility that the demand for commercial services generated by the
risk Project may be less than projected. Concessionaire needs to do his own
due diligence for the same and the risk will be borne by itself.

Project operation phase


Interest rate risk These are factors affecting the availability and cost of funds. To mitigate
this risk, hedging instruments or fixed rate loans to be used.
Inflation risk ► The possibility that the actual inflation rate will exceed the projected
inflation rate.
► Risk to be borne by the Concessionaire.
Residual value risk ► The risk that the Project Assets at termination or expiry of the
Agreement will not be in the prescribed condition for hand back to the
Authority.
► Obligation on Concessionaire to maintain and repair/upgrade the JLN
facilities and such transfer parameters to be specified in the
Concession Agreement.
► Audit towards the end of Project Term.

Key Stakeholders
As mentioned earlier, the proposed project structure clearly defines relationships between key project
stakeholders. The key stakeholders relevant to the project will be:

► Sports India: Implementing authority, currently possess the project land


► Private sector/developer: to be selected for the project development through competitive bidding
process
► Project SPV: company formed for development and commercialization of the project formed by single
entity or consortium (selected private partner)

For the purpose of this analysis, it is assumed that the selected private partner (and therefore the project
SPV) will act as a main developer, i.e. the SPV will engage in development of the entire facility i.e. sports
facility and commercial establishments. Since a PPP project always entails that the private entity is best
suited to undertake the project; hereafter mentioned are the roles and responsibilities between SI and the
developer.

Method of Financial Analysis


The financial analysis has been carried out by most widely used Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method on
the above proposed project structure for assessing the value for money analysis. DCF is a valuation method
used to estimate the attractiveness of an investment opportunity and used future free cash flow projections
and discounts them. The analysis uses a required annual rate, to arrive at present value estimates. A present
value estimate is then used to evaluate the potential for investment. If the value arrived at through DCF
analysis is higher than the current cost of the investment, the opportunity may be a good one.

Accordingly, financial analysis has been carried out to arrive at range of realizable premium after factoring in
the project cost and other applicable terms of the project. The principle followed in assessing the premium/
amount to be realized to SI is how much selected developer would be required from the project after meeting
all capital and operating expenses including debt service cost and after retaining an equity return of
approximately 18% from the project.

The financial analysis has been undertaken for proposed development plan options of 40 FAR and 400 FAR
as discussed in Section 4: Development options.

Area Statement
In order to suggest a suitable product mix, it has been kept in mind that the revenue potential for the
development should be maximum. On the basis of Master Plan for Delhi 2021, the following area statement

Annexure A.1 - Institutional framework of SI


Sports ecosystem in India comprises of four types of stakeholders (government bodies, private entities,
autonomous bodies, public private partnerships) across eight major segments. These stakeholders form the
basis of sports industry in India and are involved in various activities spread over from governance of events
of sports activities. Major stakeholders are:

Ministry of Youth Affairs of Sports (MYAS) - The Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports acts as the apex
government body for sports in India. It is primarily responsible for formulation of sports development
programmes, development of sports infrastructure in the country.

Sports India (SI) – SI is responsible to implement the objectives laid out by the MYAS. It releases funds
sanctioned by MYAS to NSFs and manage sports training and institution centers.

Indian Olympic Association (IOA) – it is the representative of International Olympic Association. It is an


autonomous body that enforces the Olympic charter over NSFs of Olympic Sports. It also organizes the
National game sand liaises with Government for financial assistance.

National Sports Federations (NSFs) – these are autonomous bodies responsible for promoting their
respective sports and organizing tournaments. These organizations are assisted by state and district sports
associations to meet the required goals and objectives. NSFs play at pivotal role in developing a sport with
their close association with base level authorities that promotes a sports right from school and village levels
up to the national level. The below figure illustrates sports ecosystem along with roles and responsibilities of
stakeholders.

Annexure A.2 – Stakeholder Interaction


Key findings of the survey at Jawaharlal Nehru stadium is illustrated in the following section.
1. User frequency
Most of the users present during the survey were registered users
under the come and play scheme, who seek training for specific
sports. On account of summer holidays the number of come and play
users present at the stadium was estimated to be over 600 during the
evening hours. The above figure depicts the user frequency at JLNS.
Most of the users of the sports facility come daily. The second highest
category is of the users who come once a week.

2. Gender and age profile


The Figure depicts the gender profile at
JLNSS. Due to higher male population
and patriarchal view of our society the
percentage of females participating in
sport activities is low. The major
proportion of the user group fall in the
age category of “up to 20 years”. People
in this category are mix of come and play users and elite athletes.

3. Mode of transport

Majority of the people use public transport (80%) to reach JLNSS


primarily on account of dedicated bus and metro stations located
in the vicinity have played an important role in facilitating public
transport at JLNSS.

4. Experience of Infrastructure
The analysis depicts the experience of current infrastructure at
JLNS. Since all the infrastructure was revamped during Common
Wealth games 2010, fair amount of the users think the current
facility is good in terms of infrastructure.

5. Interest in additional facilities


In order to gauge current user’s interest of using facilities
other than what they use daily, we sought their opinion
on development of additional facilities like 24x7 gyms
and swimming pool etc. on come and use basis. Most of
the users were interested in using these additional
facilities.

6. Factors determining choice of stadium


Majority of the users choose JLNS for the expertise of the
coaches. All the coaches at JLNS are affiliated to SI,
hence they bring the best coaching techniques to the
table. About one fourth of the users choose JLNS for its
affordable prices and the facilities that JLNS has to offer.

7. Experience with coaches


Almost all the users at JLNS agree that the coaches are
experienced and they have a fruitful experience while
being coached.

8. Willingness to pay
When asked about the increment in tariff of the facilities
majority of the users were comfortable in an increase less
than 5%. This points to fact that many users currently
coming to JLNS are price sensitive. While some of the
users were not concerned by the tariff increase, they would
still continue to use the facilities offered by JLNS.

Annexure A.5 – Transit Oriented Development


As per the National Transit oriented development policy, TOD needs to integrate land use and transport
planning and aims to develop planned sustainable urban growth centers, having walk able and livable
communes with high density mixed land-use. Citizens have access to open green and public spaces and at
the same time transit facilities are efficiently utilized.

It focuses on creation of high density mixed land use development in the influence zone of transit stations,
i.e. within the walking distance of (500-800 m) transit station or along the corridor in case the station spacing
is about 1km and advocates pedestrian trips to access various facilities such as shopping, entertainment and
work.

It also increases the accessibility of the transit stations by creating pedestrian and Non-Motorized Transport
(NMT) friendly infrastructure that benefits large number of people, thereby increasing the ridership of the
transit facility and improving the economic and financial viability of the system. Since the transit corridor has
mixed land-use, where the transit stations are either origin (housing) or destination (work), the corridor
experiencing peak hour traffic in both directions would optimize the use of the transit system

i) About 500 m. wide belt on both sides of Centre


line of the existing and planned/approved MRTS Indicative Mix of Use within TOD
Corridors is designated as Influence Zone which
10%
has been identified in the respective Zonal 5%
Development Plans, along with stations. The
same will be updated by DDA from time to time.

ii) Entire approved plan of a TOD integrated 30% 55%


scheme will be included in the zone if more that
50% of the plan area falls inside the influence
zone. The TOD integrated scheme to be
submitted by DE will be of the area under his
ownership/ entitlement and not of the adjoining Flexible Mix Residential Use

TOD in the context of Delhi

Delhi’s recent investments in Public Transport Systems which include a world class Metro System and a
planned BRT Network, Delhi has been unable to deliver efficient, comfortable and affordable mobility options
to its citizens. The current lack of connectivity, subsidized parking options as well as a lack of safety for
walkers, cyclists and women in the city has resulted in ever increasing number of private vehicles in the city.
Total vehicular emissions contribute to 70% of the air pollution in Delhi multiple respiratory ailments and
deaths. The objective of TOD is to restructure and redefine how a city works, lives and finds means of
recreation

TOD Zone of Influence

The development in TOD is categorized under 3 Zones namely intense, standard and transition zones within
300 M, 800 M and 2000 Meter radius from the Metro Stations

case of JLN stadium, Jangpura stadium open to the East Gate of the stadium and more than 50 % of the
area falls under the 500 Meter radius from the Metro station. From the JLN Metro station on the same Violet
line, the Zone of influence covers more than 50 % of the complex area under the 800 Meter radius zone.
Since there are no protected monuments amongst the 52 A.S.I enlisted monuments in the vicinity of the
stadium complex, full utilization of TOD norms should be applicable to JLN Stadium Complex. The TOD
policy in Delhi is under review presently and is presently being scrutinized on project basis as well.

Benchmarking and Analyzing Best Practice


Sports stadiums and infrastructure remains the pride of the nation and become the much needed symbol of
constructive young India. These stadiums not only provide match playing venues but also becomes centers
of training and excellence in sports. Already with the training programme and come and play schemes, most
of the Sports India Stadiums extensively support sports in the country. Being the kind of large infrastructure
needed to host international events, maintaining these stadiums/ venues after the events are over or in
between events remains a challenge across the world. We have studied best practices in stadiums Vis-a –
Vis Olympic & world cup requirements to host a match. For Olympic venues, Athletics and football stadiums
have been studied. World cup venues for football, the redevelopment plans after the events, the viability
plans for maintaining sports with an added product mix and stadiums fallen to disrepair & disuse due to lack
of foresight across many venues have all been studied to understand the life cycle of a stadium, the
international match holding capability and the much needed sustainability of the project via supporting
functions.

The existing stadiums in Delhi NCR have also been studied with their facilities to understand in case of a
major international sports event, how JLN stadium could be placed.

A list of major sports international events which could be held in the stadium have also been identified along
with their requirements.

In case of 400 FAR, the areas under the stands which have been identified for sports retail can also be
completely left vacant for international matches and set up as the built up area available is sufficient to
accommodate the component of retail and sports related commercial.

Major sports disciplines and facilities have been identified which can be upgraded to bring sports training
courts like the Basketball, badminton, Table Tennis, Handball etc. can be played under international match
playing conditions.

Table below is a snapshot of the stadiums in Delhi-NCR and their capacities.

Annexure A.6 – PPP as an Enabler in Sports


Infrastructure
Sports Infrastructure Creation
While evaluating proposal for redevelopment, improvement or expansion of any existing sports facility
through PPP, it is imperative to understand the dynamic stakeholders involved and define a vision for
undertaking such development. The process of proposing even small changes in the operations of any
existing sports structure shall be backed up by defined purpose and need of such change. Moving forward
promoting sports does not essentially mean developing more infrastructure, such vision would result in
adding up of inventories of sports stadiums. Without analyzing the requirement and identifying the users for
such infrastructure facilities, the problem of sufficient utilization for existing purposes shall remain
unanswered. Therefore, the concept of development of sports facility should enable the objective of
determining the operational efficiency of current facilities and upgrading the existing stadiums with advanced
and sustainable solutions.

Establishing a vision for redevelopment of any existing sports infrastructure shall typically address three key
questions.

What do we WANT?

This question deals with understanding the preliminary thoughts and ideas that lead to emergence of this
project concept. The thoughts at this stage are more focused towards building a “dream project” and
analyzing the international best practices to be brought into the current scenario. The stage brings in an
idealistic scenario which possible options. However it is important to study the operative environment by
adding realistic approach to the thought process, which leads us to our next question.

What do we NEED?

It is important to align our thought process of an “ideal stadium” with the current environment in which the
stadium operates. Development of a stadium or expanding the scope of an existing facility is related to many
factors like regulatory policies, political stability, market dynamics, usage patterns and many others. Thinking
of creating infrastructure in isolation or skipping any such factor may lead to ambiguity in successful results.

What can we AFFORD?

The final question relates to the extent we would want to explore the possible options. Every project faces
multiple constraints while structuring the options. These constraints could be financial, political, fundamental,
operational etc. in nature. Analysis of all the options considered at stage I, while creating our idea of an ideal
scenario should now be restricted to realistic and attainable options.

Addressing these questions will help us formularize a vision for this project and form a pragmatic approach
towards structuring of this report. The objective of this feasibility study is to outline the potential options for
increasing the utilization of this expansive and world-class infrastructure on a PPP mode. Methodology
proposed involves a combination of options including providing more facilities to the existing user groups
and/or targeting potential user groups for this facility. Another purpose of entering into a PPP to maximizing
both sustainable revenue, and ensuring access to citizens at large. However. It is a predetermined condition
for any options, to ensure that training and coaching for sportspersons with potential to contend for medals
at all levels shall continue unhindered. The prime motive is to unify sports with non-sports activities and
provide splendid experience to the sportspersons and other user groups involved.

Sports Infrastructure in India


Sports in India is primarily a state and central government subject, and as huge portion of the sports
infrastructure is owned and managed by respective governments. Since the investments made by most
states in sports has been negligible, for most part, India has not succeeded in providing universal and barrier
free access to sports or creating a sports culture. Another major reason is related to low level role of private
sector involvement in sports development in India except in cricket which have been majorly concentrated
on for-profit academies and CSR/ non-profit initiatives. Many federations are highly dependent on
government funding for carrying out their key objectives, such as organizing championships, procuring
equipment and training sportspersons. The current model of sports governance not only breeds
inefficiencies; issues around irregular activities have also been reported in the past.

The sports policy of most states is formed with the same objectives of `sports for all' and achieving 'excellence
in sports'. However, the micro aspects under various categories contribute towards the diversity in
performance by different states. However, over the last few years, sports industry has witnessed a
transformation at the back of factors like growing sophistication in infrastructure needs, increased visibility of
competitive sports, emergence of sports as a business proposition and proactive efforts of India to host
numerous mega sporting events. The launch of Khelo India initiative by the Government focusses on
developing sports infrastructure, encouraging a sporting culture through competitions and identifying and
nurturing young talent. However, there is a need for greater involvement of the private sector in sports
infrastructure development in India due to limitation of funds to develop and maintain the sports facilities as
well as lack of technical and management proficiency. There is a need for private funding, management,
skills and subsidies to further the national sports goals, as well as to develop a high potential and robust
domain with immense opportunities in the short and long term.

Role of Private Sector in Sports


PPPs can help the government fast track infrastructure development and therefore it is imperative to create
favorable policies and guidelines in order to attract private investments for a sustainable development goal.
PPPs can be explored for creating infrastructure through Built – Operate Transfer (BOT) models by
contracting construction companies specializing in building multi-purpose centers and allowing professional
private sector entities to manage and control the existing sports infrastructure with the objective of building
commercial models and converting the same into revenue centers. Higher asset utilization and revenue
generation could in turn incentivize sports infrastructure creation.

In developed economies, stadiums have been designed as multi-functional facilities which are capable of
hosting various sporting events, concerts and other types of entertainment as well. Such development have
resulted not only in effective utilization of facility, but also act as a catalyst for urban growth in the region.

Various states in India such as Gujarat and Rajasthan, have delineated the role of PPP in their sports policy
while other states such as Madhya Pradesh have already started development of sports cities via the PPP
mode. The sports policy of Haryana, a leading sporting state, defines in depth the need for development of
sports facilities when developing new commercial/residential spaces. 12 Keeping in mind the need of
developing places for development and promotion of sports. Such provisions can have a long term impact

on improving the sports culture in every state. Timely planning and development of sports infrastructure
seems to the current problem.

Favorable PPP policy and direction/incentive for PPP in sports from the central government: The Union
Budget 2016 focused on reviving PPP for infrastructure creation through action for ensuring improved
liquidity, easier credit rating mechanism, and boosting (Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and
Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs), further easing fund flows. In addition, the central government may
develop guidelines for PPP in sports policy for states to adopt and make available case studies of successful
implementation of PPP by states in India. The center may incentivize states to adopt PPP to spur
infrastructure creation by using the same as a criteria for allotment of national games.

Case study: Envisaging and defining the role of PPPs for sports infrastructure development in
Andhra Pradesh
On account of Andhra Pradesh being selected to host the national games 2018-19, the State Government
has enhanced the budget for development of sports infrastructure. The Government of Andhra Pradesh
expects to make an allocation of almost INR1,000 crore for developing stadia in difference districts. The
objective of using PPP for sports infrastructure development stems from the flexibility it allows the
government to focus entirely on recruiting top physical education trainers and coaches to train youth in
different sports activities while the private players focus on the revenue aspect.

The State Government believes taking up the PPP mode would allow for the incorporation of a provision
for setting up shopping complexes and other infrastructure in the stadium. This would not only help in
effective maintenance of the stadium but would also make the stadium self-sufficient in terms of revenue.
PPP initiative, private players would be allowed to open these facilities for the citizens on payment of fees
and the stadium can be put to use all year round, driving sporting culture. Once built, the stadium could
also double as a venue for business activities, annual general meeting, school games, sports functions,
regional games, music concerts, live performances, etc.

Benefits of having PPP Structure in Sports:


u Provides support and resources to achieving the ultimate aim of government
u Reduces the initial capital investment for the government
u Risk Sharing among different parties which are best equipped to handle it
u Improved expertise and reduced operational cost
u Increased revenue sources due to increased capabilities
u Increased sustainability of the project
u More focus on supporting efficient resource development
u Offers a more holistic approach towards appropriate collaboration of sustained ‘Public Interest’ and
provides an attractive commercial option to Private Sector Developer for meeting the social needs of
today.
It is the viability of infrastructure that, to a large extent, affects the sustainability of the projects that can bring
about meaningful private participation. Sports development needs to be monitored by the Centre and at the
same time, the states should develop meaningful sports policies that critically address the ways and means
to overcome the gaps in sports infrastructure and promote sports development in all respects.

Annexure A.7 – International Best Practices


Singapore Sports Hub
The Singapore Sports Hub is a state-of-
the-art, fully integrated sports,
entertainment and lifestyle hub that was
built in 2014 and hosts sporting and
entertainment events. The project cost of
the Sports Hub was c.S$1.8billion, making
it the largest sports PPP project in the
world. PPP agreement between Sport
Singapore and Sports Hub Pte Ltd is
responsible for the design, construction,
financing, operations and maintenance of
the Singapore Sports Hub for concession
length of 25 years. The hub is created with
a vision to host various multi-purpose
sports, become a recreation and lifestyle
location to attract internationally renowned sports events and performances from all over the world.

In a typical PPP structure, the project company may engage a subcontractor to operate and maintain those
facilities to enable the procuring authority to carry out its business at the facilities. However, this project is
unusual as the project company is also charged with running the day to day activities at the facilities in a way
that complements the procuring authority broader objective of facilitating and encouraging sport in Singapore.

Another unique element of the project relates to the fact that the project company not only receives a monthly
tariff in respect of the basic steady-state operation but is also incentivized to maximize the usage of the
facilities and ensure a vibrant calendar of events. These incentives come in the form of a sharing mechanism
with the authority in respect of third party revenues generated at the venues, whether through ticket sales,
venue hiring income, commercial rights income, car park charges or retail rental fees.

Key learnings

u Engaging multi-faceted participation of PPP Co. with global experience in operating and maintaining the
facility
u Freedom to PPP for design of facility
u Performance based revenue mechanism on construction and O&M activities
u Defect liability and deduction on payment mechanism for non-performance on O&M works
u Incentivize the PPP Co for maximizing the usage of the facility
u Promoting participation in sports activities through marketing major marquee events
u Exploiting commercial rights to maximize project revenue

Amsterdam ArenA
In the case of Amsterdam ArenA, due to the significant investment costs and the willingness of the City of
Amsterdam to delegate operational tasks to other parties, a public-private partnership was structured. The
vision of the Amsterdam ArenA’s stakeholders was to create a venue capable of hosting world class sporting
and non-sporting events, open seven days a week and with the potential to become like a second city center
of Amsterdam. AFC Ajax the football Club invested only in football-related development (its core business)
as it is the main tenant and the most important user of the ArenA. The stadium was leased to Ajax as an off-
balance way of financing with zero cash transactions. Eight major private companies, the so called
“founders”, invested in the project in exchange for sponsorship and exclusive hospitality rights for a ten year
period. The commercial partners became the first choice suppliers of different goods and services and they
all received the rights to a private sky lounge. However, they do not have any stake in the stadium ownership.

The owners of the Amsterdam ArenA are


exclusively the City of Amsterdam and Stadion
Amsterdam N.V., a public limited company.
Stadion Amsterdam N.V. rents the stadium to
another company called Stadion Amsterdam
C.V., a limited partnership fully in charge of the
operations.

The legal differentiation between the ownership


company and the operating company has been
structured in order to reduce the owners’
exposure to operating risks. Therefore, if Stadion
Amsterdam C.V. makes losses, the owner is
generally not affected. Daily operation al
decisions of the ArenA are entirely in the hands of
Stadion Amsterdam C.V. as the direct
involvement of the owners is only periodical or
indirect.

Key learnings

u The Government investment in the ArenA act as an catalyst to encourage urban renewal and growth in
the region
u Concession of the site was granted for a fairly low minimal price in order to lower the financial burden
u Government income generated through real estate project developed in the region in the subsequent
years
u AFC Ajax invested only in football related development as its main tenant and user of Arena
u Investment of commercial partners in exchange for sponsorship and exclusive hospitality rights for a ten
year period
u The earlier sale of the depositary receipts, or “certificates of share”
u Stadium tour and museum serving as an important revenue sources for the operator.
u The parking complex under the stadium, the Transferium, is owned and operated directly by the
Municipal Authority.

Perth Arena
The keystone event behind the decision to
build the Arena was the Hopman Cup tennis
tournament. However, to be successful, the
Arena hosts a range of other events. The
procurement options analyzed and identified
that for the stadium and sports precinct works
in package, a Design, Build, Finance and
Maintain (DBFM) model was undertaken to
best balance the control of project cost and risk
with the achievement of the project objectives,
and most likely to maximize value-for-money
(VFM) outcomes for the state. The state also
selected to make a capital contribution of 60% of the construction cost. Whereas, payment during the
operating phase is in the form of a Monthly Service Payment (MSP) calculated in accordance with the Project
Agreement and paid in arrears. The MSP covers the remainder of the construction costs, financing costs and
maintenance costs including lifecycle replacement. The MSP is subject to abatement in accordance with the
abatement regime set out in the Project Agreement. The state retains the responsibility, through the
appointment of a stadium operator, for the day-to-day operation of the stadium and sports precinct. The state
also retains ownership of the stadium and sports precinct.

Key learnings

u Design of facility was carried out by the state


u The model injects significant intellectual, operational and commercial focus of the consortium entities
such as the FM Subcontractor and the Financiers into the procurement process resulting in whole-of-life
benefits;
u Excellent track record of achieving on time and on budget outcomes when compared with traditional
procurement models.
u Robust maintenance regime is delivered over a 25-year operating period to minimize asset deterioration
and a focus on preventative maintenance rather than reactive maintenance

Transstadia
The stadium has been developed with a
project cost ~INR 540 Cr on a land area of ~
10 acre. The stadium consists of
development of 16 sports & entertainment,
hospitality, retail etc. with an objective based
on "utilization model". The emphasis was on
to create a facility wherein each part will
contribute to the revenue. But this model
requires that the facility be situated within the
city. It is being developed on PPP model land
lease model with a concession period of 35
years, extendable for a further 35 years, with
two percent revenue sharing for sports development in the country. The Arena boasts of a FIFA standard
natural turf with a seating capacity of 20,000, including patented expertise that enables the conversion of a
section of the stadium into a 4,000 capacity pillar-less multi-purpose indoor venue, creating an optimum
spectator experience. Not only can the latter can be utilized for 12 indoor sports, it can further increase the
revenue by hosting exhibitions, social functions, conventions and corporate events. The facility also house a
'members only' Eka Club, which will become a fitness and entertainment hub for the city.

Key learning

u Use of technology for effective utilization of land which can be transformed in activity hub
u Use of space in non-sports activities are essential as they contribute to large scale revenue expectations
u Longer land lease concession period enable the PPP Co. to develop stable cash flow
u Membership program for non-sport activities such as club, fitness and entertainment hub to support
revenue potential for PPP Co.
u Marketing initiative such as leasing branding rights, major marquee events can promote sports facility
u Commercial sports activities through such as Pro-Kabaddi, sports retail brands are other potential
avenue of revenues.
