Temasek-backed Sembcorp Green Infra files DRHP with SEBI for proposed ₹3,750 crore IPO
Sembcorp Green Infra Limited, one of India’s leading renewable energy independent power producers, has filed its Draft Red Herring Prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) for its proposed initial public offering (IPO).
The proposed IPO comprises a
fresh issue of Equity Shares aggregating up to ₹3,750 crore, with no Offer for Sale (OFS) component.
The Company proposes to utilise
the net proceeds from the Fresh Issue towards repayment/prepayment, in full or
in part, of certain outstanding borrowings availed by the Company and its
Objects’ Subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2026, the Company and its Objects’
Subsidiaries had outstanding borrowings, a portion of which may be repaid or
prepaid from the Net Proceeds.
The proposed capital raise is
therefore intended to support the Company’s balance sheet and financial
position.
Sembcorp Green Infra is an
independent power producer engaged in the development, construction, operation
and maintenance of utility-scale and complex renewable energy projects in
India.
The Company has been active in
the Indian renewable energy market since 2005 and is among the top 10 largest
renewable IPPs in India by operational capacity as of March 31, 2026. Sembcorp
Green Infra is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sembcorp Industries Limited, a
Singapore-headquartered global energy and urban solutions provider and a
Temasek Portfolio Company.
The Company benefits from the
strong parentage of Sembcorp Industries, including access to capital,
refinancing flexibility and global expertise.
As of March 31, 2026, Sembcorp
Green Infra had an aggregate renewable portfolio of approximately 7.64 GW/GWh,
comprising 3.60 GW of operational capacity and 4.04 GW/GWh of
under-construction capacity. Its portfolio comprised 105 projects, including 84
operational projects, across 13 states and union territories. 3.58 GW of its
under-construction portfolio comprises Complex Projects, including hybrid and
storage-linked configurations. SGIL had a 77.32% bid success ratio for Complex
Projects during FY24–FY26.
The portfolio spans wind, solar and complex renewable projects, including hybrid, battery energy storage system (BESS), round-the-clock (RTC) and firm and dispatchable renewable energy (FDRE) projects.
The Company reported revenue from
operations of ₹2,652.50
crore, EBITDA of ₹2,098.73 crore and PAT of ₹371.08 crore in FY2026, compared with revenue from
operations of ₹2,318.29
crore, EBITDA of ₹1,837.12 crore and PAT of ₹298.83 crore in FY2025.
The DRHP has been filed at a time
when India’s power and renewable energy sector is undergoing a significant
transformation, driven by rising electricity demand, increasing renewable
energy penetration and a shift towards more reliable and flexible renewable
power solutions.
India had approximately 533 GW of
total installed generation capacity as of March 2026, with renewable energy,
including large hydro, accounting for approximately 52% of total installed
capacity.
Over 80% of India’s new capacity
additions are expected to come from renewable energy by Fiscal 2031, with
approximately 264–274 GW of renewable energy capacity expected to be added.
The market is also increasingly
moving towards complex renewable energy tenders, including hybrid, RTC and FDRE
projects, with the share of such tenders rising to 87% in Fiscal 2026. CRISIL
Intelligence expects approximately 50–55 GW of energy storage solutions to be
added by Fiscal 2031, supporting the increasing integration of renewable energy
into India’s power system.
The Book Running Lead Managers to
the Issue are Axis Capital Limited, Citigroup Global Markets India Private
Limited, HSBC Securities and Capital Markets (India) Private Limited, ICICI
