stadium for Qatar&#8217;s 2022 Fifa World Cup, an official said on Monday, a boost for the Indian firm facing a slowdown in its key Middle East market due to low oil prices.&#8221;As part of a joint venture, L&amp;T will serve as a contractor building the 40,000-seat Al Rayyan stadium,&#8221; said the Qatari government official, who declined to be named as he was not authorised to speak publicly.L&amp;T, which also declined to comment, is one of India&#8217;s biggest industrial groups and is involved in infrastructure projects in the Gulf including the construction of a metro line in Doha.In May, the company&#8217;s group executive chairman said L&amp;T was bidding for projects in Asia and Africa to counter a slowdown in the Middle Eastern markets, which have been hurt by declining oil prices.Qatar, the world&#8217;s top liquefied natural gas exporter and one of the richest countries per capita, faces a 46.5-billion Qatari riyal (Dh 46.93bn) budget deficit this year because of the continued lower oil and gas revenues.The Gulf country cut planned spending on building healthcare facilities by about two-thirds in 2016, following the drop in energy prices but expenditure on its World Cup-related projects remains unchanged, an official told the media in May.Corruption allegations that have rocked football&#8217;s governing body Fifa, have put renewed media focus on Qatar and its hosting of the World Cup, although Qatari officials say they are confident the event will go ahead as planned.Al Rayyan stadium will include cooling technology to help with Qatar&#8217;s fierce temperatures.The stadium&#8217;s capacity will be reduced to 21,000 after the tournament with the upper tier of seats being sent to a developing
