The deal, announced by the company in a statement, covers assets that add scale to IRB's operations and complements its existing investments. Management described the acquisition as aligned with long term growth objectives and expected operational synergies to be pursued during integration. The buyer highlighted plans to standardise maintenance practices and integrate operations under its existing management systems.

Accounting and reporting will follow prevailing regulatory frameworks and be reflected in future financial disclosures.
