IIFCL To Cross Rs One Tn Loan Book In FY26-27

India Infrastructure Finance Company Ltd (IIFCL) is aiming to exceed a Rs one tn loan book by the fiscal year 2026-27, the managing director Rohit Rishi said as he outlined growth plans. He indicated that a robust project pipeline is the principal driver of the target and that strategic lending will focus on priority infrastructure sectors. The announcement frames the target as part of a broader effort to support national development objectives.

The leadership said that project selection would favour bankable propositions with clear revenue streams and robust contractual structures. By December 2025 IIFCL’s loan book stood at Rs 805.15 bn, reflecting steady portfolio expansion in recent quarters. The company has set an ambition to double its asset base over the next three years while maintaining emphasis on credit quality and resilience.

Management described the approach as calibrated to national infrastructure priorities and risk management imperatives. To finance the planned expansion IIFCL intends to access both domestic and international capital markets, with instruments designed to diversify funding sources. The company is exploring a blended finance facility and a Green Bond issuance to lower fiscal exposure and mobilise private capital for sustainable projects.

It is also aiming to raise USD one bn of commercial debt without sovereign guarantees to support select large projects. Engagement with multilateral and commercial investors will be prioritised to secure favourable terms and long tenors. The financing strategy aims to reduce public financial burdens while enabling the company to underwrite larger and more complex projects.

Officials signalled that continued pipeline development and prudent capital mobilisation would underpin sustained growth in the medium term. The plans are presented as consistent with government infrastructure goals and market discipline. Market reaction will follow.
