By Business Desk
Horizon Industrial Parks’ ₹4,250 Cr IPO empowers XSIO Logistics Parks with ₹3,000 Cr for Nagpur expansion, aiming for regional logistics dominance.
Blackstone-backed Horizon Industrial Parks Limited’s recent listing, which secured ₹4,250 crore in primary equity, has unlocked significant capital market access for XSIO Logistics Parks. This strategic move directly fuels XSIO’s ambitious ₹3,000 crore investment to expand its logistics parks in Nagpur.
Horizon, which holds over 50% stake in XSIO, successfully raised this capital, including a ₹1,650-crore pre-IPO placement. This infusion is set to strengthen Horizon’s balance sheet and reduce its existing debt, creating a robust financial platform. The direct implication for XSIO is the enablement of its large-scale development plans.
