The data reveals a high concentration of institutional ownership, with Financial Institutions/Banks alone controlling nearly one-third of the entire Trust. When combined with Provident/Pension funds and Insurance Companies, these three categories account for 54.5% of the total outstanding units. This suggests that the liquidity and price discovery of Roadstar Infra Investment Trust are heavily influenced by large institutional flows rather than retail participation, which stands at just 1.18%.
