Mr. Virendra Mhaiskar, Chairman and Managing Director of IRB Infrastructure
The 20-year long journey of IRB Infrastructure Developers Ltd has always been about value creation and pioneering initiatives, while shaping the Indian roads & highways infrastructure sector. IRB has played a huge part in building seamless connections across the country.
Incorporated way back in year 1998, IRB Infra has taken big strides to become India’s leading and one of the largest infrastructure developing company in BOT (Built Operate Transfer) and HAM (Hybrid Annuity Model) space. From executing the first ever BOT project of the country, to launching the first ever Infrastructure Investment Trust (InvIT) of the country, IRB’s actions have been guided by the sole objective of delivering quality.
Over the years, IRB Infra has been committed to delivering complex projects across India on difficult terrains. The company has worked on India’s most ambitious highways development project, i.e., ‘The Golden Quadrilateral Project’.
The CMD of IRB Infra, Virendra D Mhaiskar has led the company by example. Talking about the vital part played by the company in the development of Indian roads, he said, “Ingrained in IRB’s core DNA is our motto to develop the World Class Roads & Highways Infrastructure that far exceeds the expectations of one and all..”
Road Ahead
IRB Infrastructure has bagged a fourth project under BOT space from NHAI in Uttar Pradesh. It had won after winning three successive projects under Hybrid Annuity Model (HAM) earlier. The value of these four projects is Rs 8,900 crore, which has taken the company’s order book to Rs 15,000 crore.
The company also achieved the financial closures for its two projects under HAM recently, and expects to achieve the same for the remaining two projects. This would allow the company to commence construction activity and toll collection on these projects.
Commenting on the development, the CMD of IRB Infra, Virendra D Mhaiskar said, “This is a remarkable achievement for us to financially close two HAM projects on two successive days, and proves our domain expertise, execution capabilities and financial discipline demonstrated over the last 20 years.”
“Out of three HAM projects of around Rs 5,500 crore, we have financially closed two and are expecting to close the third one soon,” he added.
Recently, CRISIL ̶ a globally renowned rating agency ̶ assigned its ‘CRISIL A+/Positive/CRISIL A1’ ratings to the bank facilities of IRB Infrastructure Developers Limited (IRBIDL), a part of IRB Group. Talking about the rating given by CRISIL, the IRB chief said, “This is a great achievement for us to have a positive outlook with A+ and A1 rating by the globally renowned rating agency. We are grateful to the CRISIL as well as all our lenders for trust and confidence shown.”
