NHAI Identifies 1,692.5 km of Highway Assets for Monetisation in FY27

National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has finalised a tentative list of National Highway stretches proposed for monetisation under the Toll-Operate-Transfer (TOT) and Infrastructure Investment Trust (InvIT) models during FY 2026-27.

The identified portfolio comprises 17 highway projects with a combined length of 1,692.5 km across Haryana, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Maharashtra. The list excludes assets proposed for monetisation through the Raajmarg Infra Investment Trust (RIIT) during the fiscal year.

The initiative is part of the Government of India’s asset monetisation strategy aimed at unlocking value from operational highway assets, attracting private investment and generating capital for further infrastructure development.

NHAI said the selected corridors represent key economic and logistics routes with established traffic potential and strategic connectivity importance. The monetisation will be carried out through transparent TOT and InvIT frameworks, which have emerged as important mechanisms for attracting long-term institutional investment into the National Highway sector.

The programme is expected to support the expansion and modernisation of India’s highway network while enhancing asset management, operational efficiency and logistics connectivity across the country.
