Trident Bandra Kurla Mumbai
- The government’s strong focus on infrastructure development is vital for driving India’s growth story. The capital expenditure by the central government has increased from Rs 2.5 trillion in 2013-14 to Rs 7.5 trillion in 2022-23. A sum of Rs 1 trillion has been allocated to the state governments in 2022-23 for infrastructure development under the PM GatiShakti Master Plan.
- The revival of the private capex cycle has enhanced the confidence of the lending and investor community. With an improvement in corporate balance sheets, commercial banks have opened up to project finance. Bank exposure to the infrastructure sector increased by over 6 per cent in 2021-22 as against a 3 per cent rise in 2020-21. Navi Mumbai International Airport, Noida International Airport and Meerut Budaun Expressway were some of the big-ticket projects that achieved financial closure during the past 12-15 months.
- Corporate bond issuances reached an all-time high of Rs 7.7 trillion in 2020-21 owing to policy measures such as TLTRO and the partial credit guarantee scheme. However, private placement of corporate bonds moderated in 2021-22 to Rs 5.8 trillion due to abundant liquidity in the banking system.
- With regard to mergers and acquisitions, strategic investors as well as private equity players have raised their stakes in the infrastructure sector with an investment of around $13 billion in the first seven months of 2022, almost 70 per cent of the deal value in the full year 2021. The year has witnessed key deals such as the award of TOT-VII to the Indian Highway Concessions Trust, Edelweiss’ acquisition of L&T’s operational road assets, International Holding Company PJSC’s investment in Adani’s portfolio companies, among others.
- Sovereign wealth funds and pension funds are bullish on the long-term growth prospects of the country. With tax breaks on infrastructure investments, this investor class is participating in innovative financing structures such as infrastructure investment trusts (InvITs) and co-investment strategies. The National Investment and Infrastructure Fund has also upped its game by expanding its roads portfolio and foraying into e-mobility and green hydrogen.
- InvITs and real estate investment trusts (REITs) have also emerged as crucial platforms for asset monetisation. While fundraising through REITs and InvITs declined by 59 per cent to Rs 221 billion in 2021-22 on account of global headwinds and stock market volatility, the instruments are only rising in importance. There are 19 InvITs (11 such structures in roads) and four REITs registered with SEBI and many more are on the anvil.
- The mission of this conference is to discuss the key trends and developments in the infrastructure financing sector, highlight the unaddressed issues and challenges, explore alternative funding sources, and identify upcoming opportunities for financiers.
