Larsen & Toubro has divested its entire stake in L&T Metro Rail (Hyderabad) Limited for ₹1,461.47 crore, marking a full exit from the project. This transfer of 100% equity to Hyderabad Metro Rail Limited signals a shift to public management, allowing the Government of Telangana to take over operational control.
The deal is part of a financial restructuring of the metro project, which has a debt burden exceeding ₹13,500 crore. This transition away from the PPP model will enable state-backed refinancing, impacting future urban transit developments.
