Revenue guidance

Category 3
  • Bharat Highways InvIT expects growth driven primarily by asset acquisitions, especially HAM assets with operational or near-operational status.
  • Acquisition of GR Aligarh Kanpur Highway asset expected to complete within the current quarter, adding to AUM and revenue.
  • There is potential to acquire one or two more assets within the year, including some third-party assets currently under evaluation.
  • Regulatory limits allow acquiring under-construction assets up to 10% of EV, offering limited but additional growth opportunities.
  • With assets completing construction and receiving annuities, more acquisitions are expected from FY25 onwards, expanding asset base and cash flows.
  • Government infrastructure spending (INR 11 lakh crores for FY25) supports long-term sector growth and opportunities.
  • Revenue growth is also supported by steady annuity receipts; 42 of 210 annuities have been received, indicating revenue ramp-up as projects mature.

  • There is a pipeline of 21 assets, mostly under construction, signaling potential future acquisitions that may require further fundraising.
  • Future acquisitions and scaling the portfolio will likely require additional debt and possibly equity, but exact plans have not been detailed yet.

Capex plans

Yes
- Bharat Highways InvIT is exploring the acquisition of one or two more assets this year, including one more asset from GR Infra, which is nearing second annuity receipt and can be acquired as an under-construction asset up to 10% of EV. - The investment manager is also looking at third-party assets, primarily HAM (Hybrid Annuity Model) projects. - The pipeline includes 21 assets from GR Infra, mostly under various phases of construction; however, due to InvIT regulations, only assets with at least a one-year operational/revenue track record or under-construction assets up to 10% of EV can be acquired. - The acquisition planned soon is the GR Aligarh Kanpur asset, expected to complete this quarter pending NHAI NOC. - Funding for acquisitions includes a mix of equity and debt, with a current headroom of around INR 1,700 crores for further acquisitions. - No major maintenance reserves are currently required but depend on lender agreements. Overall, strategic acquisitions to enhance portfolio and yield growth are ongoing with a focus on HAM assets.
