IRB Infra shares jump as August toll revenue surges
IRB Infrastructure Developers runs many toll roads in India.
Its shares rose 7.5% after the company reported stronger toll collections for August 2026.
The group collected about ₹807 crore, compared with about ₹646 crore a year earlier.
This means toll revenue grew by roughly 25%.
More vehicles used many of its roads, and toll prices were also revised upward.
Newer road projects added revenue that was not present in the comparable period last year.
A few roads collected less money than before.
The company expects traffic and toll revenue to remain strong in the coming months.
IRB Infrastructure Developers shares rose 7.5% on September 10 after strong August toll revenue data.
IRB Group’s gross toll revenue increased 25% year over year to ₹807.4 crore from ₹646.2 crore.
The company attributed the growth to higher traffic and a tariff revision implemented at the beginning of FY27.
Mumbai-Pune Expressway, Golconda Expressway and Lalitpur Tollway were among the major contributors to revenue growth.
Some assets, including Hapur Moradabad, Kota and Kishangarh Gulabpura, reported lower or nearly flat revenue.
