- IRB InvIT Fund is an India-based infrastructure investment trust that owns, operates, and maintains a portfolio of toll road concessions pursuant to agreements with the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). The Trust manages nine operational highway assets spanning over 4,200 lane kilometers across states including Maharashtra, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, and Haryana; these include BOT (build-operate-transfer) and HAM (hybrid annuity model) projects such as Surat-Dahisar NH 8, Tumkur-Chitradurga NH 4, Bharuch-Surat NH 8, Jaipur-Deoli NH 12, Omalur-Salem-Namakkal NH 7, Talegaon-Amravati NH 6, Pathankot-Amritsar NH 15, Hapur-Moradabad NH-9, Kaithal-Rajasthan Border NH-152/65, and Kishangarh-Gulabpura NH-79A. It generates revenue primarily through toll collections from these revenue-generating assets, with a weighted average concession life of approximately 17 years and an aggregate enterprise value exceeding Rs 16,000 crore.
Registered with the Securities and Exchange Board of India under the InvIT Regulations (Registration Number: IN/InvIT/15-16/0001) and sponsored by IRB Infrastructure Developers Limited, the Trust was established as an irrevocable trust under the Indian Trusts Act, 1882, with headquarters in Mumbai, Maharashtra.
In 2025, IRB InvIT Fund completed the acquisition of three highway assets—Hapur-Moradabad NH-9 in Uttar Pradesh, Kaithal-Rajasthan Border NH-152/65 in Haryana, and Kishangarh-Gulabpura NH-79A in Rajasthan—from IRB Infrastructure Trust for an enterprise value of Rs 8,436 crore, expanding its portfolio from six to nine projects. This followed an institutional placement that raised Rs 3,248 crore, the first such fundraising since its 2017 listing, to partly fund the transaction and unlock capital for IRB Infrastructure Developers' growth initiatives. The deal enhanced the Trust's asset base, distribution potential, and investor appeal in the toll-road infrastructure segment.
