Infrastructure Leasing & Financial Services Limited (IL&FS) has benchmarked infrastructure development in India through innovative structuring of projects in Public Private Partnership (PPP) format.

Over the past decade, IL&FS has not only taken forward and completed a number of project initiatives across an array of infrastructure sub-sectors, but has also established replicable project prototypes as well as specific products and services.

IL&FS has actively engaged in dialogue with relevant Government Authorities in order to develop policy frameworks as well as legislative changes that promote such intent. Consequently, this has helped create appropriate structures for commercialized infrastructure development consistent with public policy, thereby assisting agencies (both private and government) in positioning infrastructure projects for commercialization.

IL&FS Infrastructure Development Corporation Limited (IL&FS IDC) was incorporated in 1999 as a wholly owned subsidiary of IL&FS, with a view of providing the missing link of assistance as Project Developer / Advisor to develop 'bankable' projects in PPP format. This was in recognition of the growing need for giving the business a greater focus in high quality project development yet bringing the IL&FS group synergies in its activities.

Since then, IL&FS IDC has successfully established strategic partnerships with Key Government and Private Organizations, to take forward a number of infrastructure projects. Today we are poised to address the challenge of the country's investment requirement of Rs14,400 billion (USD 320 billion) identified for the Eleventh Plan Period (2007-12) through Public Private Partnerships.

IL&FS IDC offers end-to-end solutions to its clients for developing bankable projects across various infrastructure sectors. The range of services from project conceptualization to its completion falls under the categories of:

	Project Development
	Project/Program Management Consultancy
	Project Finance
