Valuation Overview
The valuation was conducted by independent valuer S. Sundararaman, registered with the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI), using the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) method under the income approach. This method was deemed appropriate given the finite concession periods of the SPVs, which operate under Hybrid Annuity Model (HAM) agreements with the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). The valuation date was March 31, 2026, and the report was submitted on May 19, 2026.
Asset Portfolio

During the year ended March 31, 2026, the trust expanded its portfolio by acquiring three additional SPVs in December 2025, increasing the total number of SPVs from 9 to 12. The assets are located across various states including Haryana, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, and Karnataka.
