In October last year, Sadbhav Group merged two of its listed entities – Sadbhav Engineering and Sadbhav Infrastructure Projects – to create a simplified corporate structure and enable better utilization of resources.

The merger followed Sadbhav Infrastructure’s decision to sell its nine road assets to infrastructure investment trust owned by Larsen & Toubro and Canada Pension Plan Investment Board for about Rs 6610 crore.
