IRB, one of India's largest highway infrastructure developers, has an impressive track record in executing and operating highways across the country. The company is actively participating in the bidding process for acquiring highway assets and aims to further enhance its portfolio.

The surge in competition for highway assets can be attributed to the robust growth of India's infrastructure sector. The government's focus on road network expansion, coupled with the implementation of various reforms, has created a conducive environment for private players to participate in highway projects.

As the contenders intensify their efforts to acquire highway assets, a transparent and efficient bidding process becomes crucial. Ensuring fair competition and providing an equal opportunity for all the participants promotes healthy growth in the infrastructure sector.

In conclusion, roadways firms, including Roadways, KKR, Cube, and IRB, are contending for highway assets in India.
