This strategic fundraising initiative aims to bolster IndiGrid’s financial flexibility and support its ongoing expansion in the infrastructure domain.
Key Highlights:
-
IndiGrid proposes to raise up to ₹4.70 billion through the issuance of non-convertible debt securities, further strengthening its capital structure.

The funds are expected to be utilized for refinancing existing debt, funding acquisitions, and supporting the development of under-construction transmission and renewable energy projects.
-
IndiGrid’s diversified portfolio includes 17 operational transmission projects, three greenfield transmission projects, 19 solar generation facilities, and two battery energy storage system (BESS) projects, spanning 20 states and two union territories.

The Trust’s asset base features 46 EHV overhead transmission lines, 13 substations, and solar generation assets with a total capacity of approximately 855 MW (AC).
-
IndiGrid maintains a healthy financial profile with robust debt coverage metrics, a net debt-to-AUM ratio of about 59% as of February 2025, and a leverage cap well within regulatory limits.
-
Structural safeguards for investors include a debt service reserve account, cash-trap triggers, and a structured payment mechanism to ensure timely debt servicing.
The move aligns with IndiGrid’s long-term strategy to expand its footprint in both power transmission and renewable energy, while maintaining strong governance and risk management practices.
