The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has exceeded its FY 2024-25 construction target, building 5,614 km of national highways against the planned 5,150 km.

NHAI’s capital expenditure for the year also reached an all-time high of over Rs. 2,500 billion (bn) (provisional), surpassing the target of Rs. 2,400 bn. This marks a 21 per cent rise from Rs. 2,070 bn in FY 2023-24 and 45 per cent growth over Rs. 1,730 bn in FY 2022-23.

To fund its infrastructure push, NHAI monetised Rs. 287.24 bn through Toll Operate Transfer (TOT), InvIT, and Toll Securitization. This includes its largest-ever single-round InvIT receipt of Rs. 177.38 bn.

NHAI remains committed to developing world-class highways, bolstering India’s road sector growth, and advancing the nation’s economic progress.
