GR Infraprojects Ltd has announced a strategic acquisition of Rajgarh Neemuch Power Transmission Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of REC Power Development and Consultancy Ltd. The move signals GRIL’s aggressive push into India’s renewable energy infrastructure space, particularly in high-capacity transmission corridors.
Key highlights of the acquisition
1. GRIL will acquire 100 percent equity in Rajgarh Neemuch Power Transmission Ltd through a cash transaction
2. The target entity was incorporated in June 2025 with an authorized capital of ₹5 lakh and has yet to record turnover or profit
3. The acquisition is expected to be completed by October 31, 2025 and does not qualify as a related-party transaction
Project scope and strategic value
- The transmission assets cover two major renewable energy zones in Madhya Pradesh: Rajgarh (1,500 MW) and Neemuch (1,000 MW)
- GRIL emerged as the lowest bidder for these projects, reinforcing its competitive edge in the power transmission sector
- The acquisition aligns with GRIL’s diversification strategy, moving beyond highways into energy infrastructure
Parallel divestment move
- GRIL’s board also approved the sale of its highway subsidiary GR Bahadurganj Araria Highway Pvt Ltd to Indus Infra Trust
- The highway arm contributed 3.14 percent to consolidated income and 0.45 percent to net worth in FY25
- The divestment is expected to close by November 30, 2025, subject to due diligence and regulatory approvals
These twin moves reflect GRIL’s pivot toward high-growth, capital-efficient segments in India’s infrastructure landscape.
