Until now, only institutional investors could access these InvITs, but now anyone can join in.
This shift is part of the government's push to raise funds for new roads by monetizing existing ones, already bringing in over ₹1.42 lakh crore up to 2024-25.
With plans to raise another ₹30,000 crore in the current financial year (FY 2025-26), making InvITs available to retail investors could help speed up highway upgrades while giving more people a chance to invest directly in India's infrastructure.
