Abertis Wraps Up Indian Concessions While Italian Future Hangs in Balance

Abertis is winding down two overseas projects as the year ends, but the story differs between India and Italy.

1. By late December, the Spanish firm must hand back the 58‑km Jadcherla Expressway and the 94‑km Trichy Tollway to Indian authorities. Both highways were bought from Macquarie in 2016.
2. There is no sign of a renewal, meaning Abertis will lose roughly €40 million of gross operating profit each year – about 0.9% of its 2025 earnings.
3. In Italy, the fate of A4 Holding, the larger concession acquired in 2016 for €594 million from Intesa, Astaldi and the Tabacchi family, remains uncertain, pending a decision by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

The company exits India while its Italian outlook stays in limbo.
