  • Sectors: renewable energy, roads, transmission, logistics parks, data centres.
  • Typical return profile in India: 11–14 percent for operating assets, higher for build-out with construction risk; developed markets often 6–9 percent.
  • Environmental, social and governance overlay: India targets 500 gigawatts of non-fossil capacity by 2030; capital need United States dollars 300–350 billion this decade.
  • Comparison: United States offers size and stability; India offers pipeline velocity and demand growth—power consumption per capita still < 30 percent of Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development average.
  • Risks to underwrite: state-utility payment track record, land and permits, currency hedging for offshore investors.
