Edelweiss Alternatives, an investment firm, has made a significant move in the Indian infrastructure sector. Their Infrastructure Yield Plus strategy has successfully acquired 100% ownership of L&T Infrastructure Development Projects Limited (L&TIDPL), significantly expanding their infrastructure portfolio and solidifying their position in the market.
Previously held by Larsen & Toubro and Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, L&TIDPL boasts a network of seven operational roads and one power transmission asset strategically located across India. These assets cover a substantial distance, with the roads spanning a massive 4,400 lane kilometres and the power transmission line reaching 960 kilometres.
This acquisition is a strategic win for Edelweiss Alternatives. By integrating these assets with their existing holdings, they now manage a robust infrastructure portfolio encompassing 26 projects. This impressive portfolio includes over 5,000 kilometres of operational roads, 1,800 kilometres of power transmission lines, and a remarkable 813-megawatt peak (MWp) of renewable energy assets. The combined annual revenue generated by these projects is estimated at a staggering INR 3,000 crore.
Edelweiss Alternatives is confident this acquisition will create significant value for their investors. The newly acquired assets have a proven track record of generating revenue and are geographically diverse, minimising risk. The company leverages its expertise in asset management and operations to further enhance the value of this portfolio and pave the way for future expansion.
Subahoo Chordia, Head of Real Assets Strategy at Edelweiss Alternatives, highlighted the strong investor interest in the company's infrastructure strategy. A diverse range of investors, including global pension funds, Indian institutions, and high-net-worth individuals, are showing keen interest. This signifies a growing investor preference for managers with established experience, a dedicated on-ground team, and a proven track record of success in the infrastructure sector.
Edelweiss Alternatives is committed to utilising its platform to offer custom-made financial solutions for infrastructure companies seeking to monetise assets and reinvest capital. With this latest acquisition, they now hold a diversified infrastructure portfolio of 26 assets strategically located across 13 Indian states, solidifying their position as a leading infrastructure investor in the country.
