Hemant Kanoria, Chairman and Managing Director, Srei Infrastructure Finance Limited, said, "Srei as one of the largest infrastructure financing institutions in the country, is unique, as it plays a dual role in sponsoring as well as financing infrastructure projects. As a project sponsor, Srei understands the pain points and issues that an infrastructure project faces during execution. This insight helps Srei, in its role as a financier to identify, access and mitigate risks related to infrastructure project financing. Therefore, in spite of the stressed environment in the infrastructure sector, Srei is able to better manage its portfolio. With RBI having already effected a cut in interest rates and further rate cuts expected over the next few quarters, Srei is well positioned to reap the benefit of the expected economic upturn."
