InvIT, being a new instrument, is at emerging stage in terms of market participation in infra business as well as is evolving in terms of regulatory aspects. The InvIT regime has inherent nature of dealing in large scale of operations and facilitates to boost infrastructure development in the country. The Trust is committed to contribute towards development and maintenance of the world class state-of-art road infrastructure in the country by acquisition of completed road infra-assets. The key parties involved in an InvIT are the Sponsor, Trustee, Investment Manager (who takes all the acquisition/ divestment related decisions) and Project Manager as well.

The InvIT as an investment platform offers attractive investment opportunities and is expected to take wings, given the huge government outlay for infrastructure projects. The government has identified InvIT as a way to attract large institutional long-term investors in infrastructure space, to allow for capital recycling and further investments under PPP mode. InvIT plays a key role in the monetization of existing projects with conducive regulatory frameworks, cash flow profile, and taxation advantage. It helps developers to release their invested equity and deploy capital in new projects. This enables them to address the challenge of projects with high capex demands. Another advantage of InvIT is that proceeds raised from such vehicles are neither counted as debt nor as equity and provides regular return on capital infused, by way of distribution.
