The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has released its firstever Asset Monetisation Strategy, aimed at unlocking capital from operational highway assets and accelerating infrastructure development. The strategy outlines a structured framework to mobilize funds through TollOperateTransfer (ToT), Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs), and securitisation models, reinforcing publicprivate partnerships (PPPs) in India’s road sector.
 
Key Highlights:
  • Massive Fund Mobilisation: NHAI has already raised ₹1.4 lakh crore across 6,100 km of National Highways under the National Monetisation Pipeline (NMP).
  • Three Core Pillars: The strategy focuses on Value Maximisation of Government Road Assets, Transparency in Processes, and Market Development to attract domestic and foreign investors.
  • Private Sector Participation: The initiative aims to reduce reliance on traditional funding sources, allowing private players to leverage advanced technologies for better asset management.
  • Government Alignment: The strategy aligns with India’s Asset Monetisation Plan (2025–2030), marking a shift toward sustainable, marketdriven infrastructure financing.
  • Future Roadmap: NHAI plans to expand monetisation efforts, ensuring steady financing for new highway projects while maintaining highquality road infrastructure.
With this groundbreaking strategy, NHAI is paving the way for longterm infrastructure growth, fostering investment confidence and economic expansion.
