Rs 2 Tn of Road Assets Set for Monetisation in Five Year

27 Sep 2025 CW Team

Vertis Infrastructure Trust, a KKR-backed road infrastructure investment trust (InvIT), currently manages assets worth Rs 260 billion, following the country’s largest-ever acquisition last year.

In an interview with Moneycontrol, Vertis Infra Trust CEO Gaurav Chandna said InvITs have “democratised” infrastructure investing by allowing investors to access stable, inflation-hedged yields with robust governance.

Chandna noted that family offices, high net-worth individuals, corporate treasuries, and domestic investors are increasingly attracted to InvITs. “They offer predictable, annuity-like cash flows suitable for diversified portfolios, while providing corporate treasuries a higher-yielding, liquid alternative to debt markets,” he said.

Investor confidence has grown due to consistent distributions, transparent governance, and regulatory safeguards. Reforms by SEBI, such as lowering the minimum ticket size to Rs 2.5 million and tax-efficient distribution structures, have further widened participation.

Chandna also highlighted that over the next five years, road assets worth Rs 2 lakh crore are expected to be monetised through InvITs, signalling strong growth and opportunities for the infrastructure sector.
