The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has finalised a list of 17 highway projects spanning 1,692.5km across nine states for monetisation under Toll-Operate-Transfer (TOT) and Infrastructure Investment Trust (InvIT) modes in FY2026-27.
These projects exclude assets proposed for monetisation through the Raajmarg Infra Investment Trust (RIIT), which will be a separate monetisation vehicle.
Asset monetisation involves handing over operation and toll collection rights to private investors for a fixed period in exchange for a large upfront payment.
The initiative aligns with the National Monetisation Pipeline (NMP), which has set a ₹16.72 lakh crore monetisation target across sectors for FY 2026-2030.
NHAI has achieved 71% of ₹1.60 lakh crore targeted for the road sector from FY2021-22 to FY2024-25 and monetised approximately ₹85,749 crore over the past three financial years.
