AI summary

IRB InvIT Fund's Board (via IRB Infrastructure Pvt Ltd, the Investment Manager) approved proforma consolidated financial information as at June 30, 2025 and March 31, 2025 in connection with a proposed institutional placement of units. The Trust proposes to acquire 100% equity in three road SPVs — Kishangarh Gulabpura Tollway (KGTL), Kaithal Tollway (KTL) and IRB Hapur Moradabad Tollway (IHMTL) — for a purchase consideration of Rs. 4,905 crore (net of ~Rs. 3,770 crore borrowings being refinanced). Fund-raising of up to Rs. 5,000 crore is planned (Rs. 4,000 crore via fresh institutional/preferential unit issue and Rs. 905 crore via term loan/NCDs). On consolidation, proforma goodwill of Rs. 2,970 crore (June 30, 2025) is recognised. Post-acquisition, the portfolio will expand from 8 to 11 toll road projects. Proforma FY25 revenue stands at Rs. 1,553 crore with a proforma loss after tax of Rs. 361.6 crore, and Q1 FY26 proforma revenue is Rs. 423.4 crore with a loss of Rs. 92.8 crore, as all three target SPVs are currently loss-making at standalone level.

Likely market impact

This is a significant portfolio expansion funded mainly by a fresh unit issuance, which will dilute existing unitholders. The proforma numbers are loss-making because all three target SPVs are individually loss-making and the acquisition generates large goodwill, meaning near-term distributable cash flows may be under pressure despite revenue scaling up.
