Blackstone will invest up to Rs 3.80 billion in Allcargo to develop industrial and logistics parks across the country. The company also proposes to make its investment in the platform, by way of debt and equity.

Allcargo will retain a minority stake in the various logistics assets and transfer its debt as it relates to these specific assets to their relevant subsidiaries.
