Risks carried through the record.
medium
Intense competition in HAM/EPC
Management noted 20+ bidders per HAM project and EPC bids 45-50% below NHAI estimates, making these segments unattractive.
Complex BOT projects with viability concerns
New BOT projects are more complex (e.g., structure-heavy) with uncertain traffic and toll structures, limiting IRB's appetite.
Declining construction revenue
Construction segment revenue fell 31% YoY due to project completions; future EPC revenue depends on selective bidding.
