Facility Draw Down
Infrastructure India plc, an AIM quoted infrastructure fund investing directly into assets in India, announces that the Group has drawn down a further US$26.3 million (approximately £20.1 million) under the financing with IIP Bridge Facility LLC announced by the Company on 2 April 2019 (the "Facility").
The funds drawn down will be utilised to clear past operational and contractor liabilities, to meet Distribution Logistics Infrastructure Private Limited's ("DLI") ongoing debt service and operational overheads, to complete the remaining rail works at DLI's Nagpur terminal and to progress construction at DLI's Anekal and Palwal terminals.
Following the draw down, the Facility is now US$35 million drawn and a further US$70 million remains conditionally available to the Group under the Facility to enable DLI, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, to complete, commission and ramp up all of its existing terminal facilities through to completion, to meet other DLI lender requirements and provide additional working capital for both DLI and the Group.
DLI is a supply chain transportation and container infrastructure company headquartered in Bangalore and Gurgaon with a material presence in central, northern and southern India. DLI provides a broad range of logistics services including rail freight, trucking, handling, customs clearing and bonded warehousing with terminals located in the strategic locations of Nagpur, Bangalore, Palwal (in the National Capital Region) and Chennai.
