The market read

The divestment is viewed positively as it aligns with the company's strategic goals of deleveraging, strengthening the balance sheet, and recycling capital for future opportunities, supporting an asset-light model.

Dilip Buildcon Limited (DBL) announced that its Board of Directors has approved the proposal to divest its stake in two Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs), Mekhali Power Transmission Limited and DBL Renewable Private Limited, to Alpha Alternatives. These SPVs are undertaking the company's under-construction power transmission and solar projects, with a combined project cost of approximately ₹8,400 crore.

Mekhali Power Transmission Limited is developing a 400 kV sub-station and approximately 470 circuit kilometres of transmission lines in Karnataka. DBL Renewable Private Limited is developing a 1,363 MW (AC) / 1,977 MWp (DC) solar portfolio across Madhya Pradesh, comprising 10 SPVs. The consideration for the transaction will be determined through a phased subscription and closing mechanism, with definitive agreements yet to be signed.

This divestment aligns with DBL's 'DBL 2.0' strategy of building an asset-light, multi-asset development platform focused on generating recurring cash flows and enabling capital recycling. It also supports the company's efforts to deleverage and strengthen its balance sheet. JM Financial Limited acted as the exclusive financial advisor, and Khaitan & Co acted as the legal advisor to DBL for this transaction. The transaction is subject to the execution of definitive agreements, fulfilment of terms and conditions, and receipt of requisite regulatory approvals.
