AUM of road InvITs likely to grow by 68%, reaching ₹3.2 trillion by end of FY26, as per EY

- Subhash Narayan

Developers are increasingly turning to infrastructure investment trusts (InvITs) for selling their assets while unlocking capital for new toll projects as the public sector highway agency NHAI pushes for award of BOT (toll) projects.

EY estimates that asset under management (AUM) of road InvITs could grow by 68%, reaching ₹3.2 trillion by end-FY26, compared with ₹1.9 trillion in September 2024. Existing InvITs have an acquisition pipeline of ₹55,000-60,000 crore by FY26, with an additional ₹50,000-55,000 crore expected from asset monetization by NHAI and road developers.
