India Grid Trust (IndiGrid) has completed acquisition of another transmission asset - Gurgaon Palwal Transmission (GPTL) from Sterlite Power at an enterprise value of around Rs 10.8 Billion ($150 Million). With this acquisition, IndiGrid's AUM has increased by around 9% to Rs 133 Billion ($1.80 Billion). IndiGrid's asset portfolio will now consist of 10 power transmission projects, with a total network of 25 power transmission lines and 7 substations extending over 6,080 circuit kilometres & 10,735 MVA in 15 Indian states.

GPTL is part of Inter State Transmission Scheme (ISTS) network and consists of three gas-insulated substations (GIS) with a total transformation capacity of 3,000 MVA and 270 circuit kilometers of 400 KV transmission lines spread across Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Rajasthan. This project is built with a substantial focus on environmental, social and governance (ESG) aspects. It is a strategic asset for ensuring reliable power supply in the region which may reduce the carbon emissions by reducing dependence on DG sets. The land requirement for this project is also substantially reduced with innovatively designed vertical GIS substation and monopole towers with micro-piling.
