Q & A Highlights
Q: Can you provide an update on the TOT 19 and other TOT packages up for bidding? A: We decided not to bid on TOT 19 due to the requirement for multilane free flow (MLFS) technology, which hasn't been tested in India yet. We are waiting to see how this technology is implemented before participating in future projects. However, we remain optimistic about upcoming TOTs and expect three to four more to come up for bidding soon. - Anilkumar Yadav, CEO Business Development & Investment
Q: What is the visibility on EPC revenue and profitability going forward? A: We have an order book of approximately INR35,000 crore, which will be executed over 10 to 20 years. Our focus is shifting towards asset business, particularly TOT projects, which provide long-term visibility and better margins. We are not actively bidding for EPC and HAM projects due to intense competition and low margins. - Anilkumar Yadav, CEO Business Development & Investment
Q: Can you discuss the cash flow from IRB's distribution of private and public investments? A: Our current cash and bank balances are around INR25 billion. This quarter, we received approximately INR60 crores from distributions, and we expect this to grow as more projects become operational. The Pune-Mumbai expressway and other projects contribute significantly to our cash flow. - Tushar Kawedia, Group CFO
Q: What is the expected value of the upcoming TOT projects? A: While the exact value isn't disclosed, we estimate the three upcoming TOT projects could be worth around INR10,000 to INR12,000 crores based on available data. We are actively pursuing these opportunities. - Anilkumar Yadav, CEO Business Development & Investment
Q: Are there any changes being discussed in the new BOT concession agreements? A: The BOT concession agreements are undergoing reforms to improve project viability and returns. The focus is on ensuring projects offer reasonable returns commensurate with the risks involved. We are monitoring these changes closely to assess future opportunities. - Virendra Mhaiskar, Executive Chairman & Managing Director
