Q1-2025 Analysis
GMR Airports Infrastructure Ltd

GMR Airports Q1 Fiscal '25 Highlights Strong Growth and Strategic Developments

In Q1 fiscal '25, GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited experienced significant growth, with total income rising 19% to INR 25.2 billion, driven by increased traffic. EBITDA grew 18% to INR 10.2 billion, achieving a 52% margin. However, higher finance costs led to a loss of INR 3.4 billion. The merger of GMR Airports with GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited was completed, simplifying the corporate structure. Traffic continued to grow, with Delhi and Hyderabad airports handling record passengers. The company focused on expanding non-aero revenues and enhancing passenger amenities, targeting substantial growth in the coming quarters.

Introduction and Market Overview

The recent earnings call for GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited marks an important milestone as it was the first call post-merger. The company is optimistic about the travel sector, buoyed by global institutions projecting India as the fastest-growing large economy with a GDP growth rate of 7.2% for fiscal year 2025. The travel retail market in India is also expected to grow at a CAGR of nearly 21.6% from 2024 to 2029. Additionally, the Indian travel market is experiencing a shift, with more passengers opting for direct flights. This trend has led to an increase in passenger traffic and higher overseas spending. As India grows in importance as a transit hub, initiatives like improved check-in and immigration processes at Delhi Airport aim to enhance the overall travel experience.

Financial Performance

In Q1 fiscal year 2025, GMR Airports saw total income rise to INR 25.2 billion, a 19% year-on-year increase driven by traffic growth. This growth translated into an 18% increase in EBITDA to INR 10.2 billion, with EBITDA margins improving to 52% compared to 48% in Q4 fiscal 2024. Despite these gains, higher finance costs and depreciation following expansion projects at Delhi and Hyderabad Airports led to a loss from continuing operations of INR 3.4 billion. The company's consolidated net debt excluding FCCBs was INR 280 billion, up by about INR 9 billion compared to Q4 fiscal 2024, driven largely by borrowings for Bhogapuram Airport and capital expenditures at Delhi Airport.

Operational Highlights

Passenger traffic across all GMR Airports grew by 7% year-on-year to 31.8 million passengers in Q1 FY25. International passengers accounted for 23% of this total. The Delhi Airport reported a 7% year-on-year increase in passenger traffic to 19.3 million, while Hyderabad saw a 10% increase to 6.8 million passengers. Both airports recorded their highest-ever quarterly passenger numbers. At Goa Airport, passenger traffic surged by 19% year-on-year to 1.15 million. Revenues also showed strong growth, with Delhi generating INR 12.9 billion (up 7.5% year-on-year) and Hyderabad generating INR 5.8 billion (up 21.4% year-on-year).

Strategic Initiatives and Future Plans

The merger of GMR Airports with GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited has streamlined the corporate structure, moving airport assets closer to shareholders and improving corporate governance. Delhi Airport has submitted a tariff proposal for the period from April 1, 2024, to March 31, 2029. Expansion plans continue with 100% of physical work completed at Delhi and Hyderabad, and new terminals expected to open soon. GMR is also focused on diversifying into airport adjacencies, with numerous new retail and F&B outlets opening at Hyderabad Airport. Additionally, international projects like the Kuwait Terminal 2 bid and ongoing progress at Bhogapuram and Goa Airports showcase the company's growing portfolio and expansion efforts.

Outlook and ESG Commitment

Looking ahead, GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited is committed to long-term value creation with a strong focus on sustainability. Both Delhi and Hyderabad Airports aim to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2030. The company has received high ESG ratings and continues to implement initiatives for improving environmental and social governance. Additionally, the company's proactive measures aim to strengthen its balance sheet and focus on cash flow generation, preparing it for future opportunities both in India and internationally.

Ladies and gentlemen, good day, and welcome to GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited conference call to discuss Q1 FY 2025 results. [Operator Instructions] Please note that this conference is being recorded.

We have with us today, Mr. Saurabh Chawla, Executive Director, Finance and Strategy, along with the other top management.

Before we begin, I would like to state that some of the statements made in today's discussion may be forward-looking in nature and may involve risks and uncertainties. Also, recording or transcribing of this call without prior permission of the management is strictly prohibited.

I now hand the conference over to Mr. Saurabh Chawla for the opening remarks. Thank you, and over to you, sir.

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

Thank you, and good evening, everyone. I welcome our shareholders, analysts and other stakeholders to our Quarter 1 Fiscal '25 Earnings Call. This is a momentous moment for us because now our merger has got completed and this is the first earnings call of a merged entity GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited.

As we navigate into fiscal year '25. We are seeing a lot of optimism in the travel sector as also within the company. Various global institutions, including the World Bank, have stated that India will remain the fastest-growing world's largest economy. Even RBI has projected a GDP growth of 7.2% in fiscal year '25. One off the articles published by a business site said India's travel retail market is expected to grow at a CAGR of almost 21.6% during the period 2024 to 2029.

To cater to the expected demand, the new Civil Aviation minister has assured that the pace of building aviation infrastructure, including creation of new airports will be accelerated. The National Stock Exchange has also recently launched the Nifty Tourism India Index. GMR Airports is a part of that index with a weightage of 14.8% currently, the third highest within that portfolio.

The focus area of all the stakeholders remains on establishing India as a hub. Let me give you some data points to ponder. More Indian passengers are booking nonstop flights than earlier. 57% of the total passengers in 2023 flew point to point compared to 53% in 2019 as per data from OAG.

Data from India Central Bank show that Indian travelers reached a new peak in overseas spending above almost $31.7 billion in 2024, as of that, $17 billion was spent on international travel alone, a 25% increase from the previous year.

According to the CEO of the Sri Lankan Airlines, an increasing number of passengers from Europe to Sri Lanka are choosing to transit through Indian airports rather than the traditional West Asian hubs. Transit traffic from Europe to India to Colombo has tripled since COVID-19 pandemic. India is now the fastest-growing long-haul market for Melbourne Airport, its CEO said.

Melbourne Airport has grown direct services to India in the last 12 months by 330%. However, even with the growth of direct connectivity to India, 70% of the traffic between India and Australia still goes through connecting hubs like Singapore. At Delhi Airport, we have launched several initiatives to aid international travelers.

For instance, Air India has tie-ups with Delhi Airport to facilitate check-in for international passengers at two select Delhi Metro stations, which is Shivaji Stadium and New Delhi Rajiv Chowk Stadium. To make immigration process easier, biometric kiosks are operational at Delhi Airport. These and several other initiatives will ensure that more time is available to explore the airport and enhance the travel experience of the passengers.

On that note, let me delve deeper into the Q1 fiscal '25 performance. Momentum in total income continued with Q1 fiscal '25 at INR 25.2 billion, which is up by 19% year-on-year, driven by traffic growth translating into an EBITDA growth of 18% year-on-year to INR 10.2 billion.

EBITDA margin for the quarter was 52% in quarter 1 fiscal year '25 versus 48% in Q4 fiscal '24. Higher finance costs and depreciation rising post completion of expansion of Delhi and Hyderabad Airports lead to GMR Airports reporting a loss from the continuing operations of INR 3.4 billion.

Consolidated net debt, excluding the FCCBs of $25.3 billion stood at INR 280 billion, increasing by about $9 billion versus in Q4 fiscal '24. This was mainly driven by a combination of borrowings raised at Bhogapuram Airport and payment of balanced capital expenditures at Delhi, partly offset by repayment of foreign currency notes at Hyderabad.

On the operational front, we continue to see growth in traffic that is 7% year-on-year growth in quarter 1, reaching 31.8 million passengers. International passenger traffic share for the quarter was at 23%. Regarding specific airports during quarter 1, passenger traffic at Delhi rose 7% year-on-year to 19.3 million passengers. At Hyderabad, the traffic was up 10% year-on-year to about 6.8 million passengers. Both these airports handled the highest number of quarterly passengers ever in the quarter.

Goa traffic rose 19% year-on-year to 1.15 million passengers. Total income of Delhi Airport rose 7.5% year-on-year to INR 12.9 billion, driven by traffic growth with EBITDA up 3.8% year-on-year to about INR 3.9 billion. At Hyderabad, total income was INR 5.8 billion, up 21.4% year-on-year with a growth driven by both traffic and slight increase in the aero tariffs for fiscal year '25. EBITDA was up 11% year-on-year to INR 3.6 billion.

Mopa, which is Goa Airport, reported a total income of INR 946 million, an increase of 121% year-on-year on a lower base, strong traffic growth and new tariffs applicable from January 2024. The airport continues to report a positive EBITDA in its initial years of operation with Q1 at about INR 397 million.

Notable achievements during the quarter are the merger of GMR Airports with GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited is now complete. Corporate structure of GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited is now streamlined, and airport assets have moved closer to the GIL shareholders. To enhance corporate governance with an expanded board and a strong balance sheet has enabled GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited to be future-ready.

GMR promoters continue to remain as the single largest shareholder retaining management control over GMR Airports limit. Sales allotted to group ADP in view of this merger are now trading on the stock exchanges. Delhi airport during this quarter submitted the tariff proposal for the fourth control period. That is for a period from 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2029.

In addition to this, there was an unfortunate incident at Terminal 1 at Delhi Airport. I would like to highlight that the swift response by Delhi teams ensured that the business operations had minimal impact on revenues and passengers do not face challenges. There was no shortage of staff to service the passengers and our concessionaires during this transition period.

Progress of on foraying into airport adjacencies businesses continued. At Hyderabad Airport, all retail outlets are now being operated by GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited. Letter of Intent has been issued to some luxury brands for Luxury Zone at the domestic terminal.

Car park business that was awarded to GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited has been operationalized this month. For F&B, GMR Hospitality Limited has opened up 5 outlets during this quarter and is expected to open many more or actually more than 30 outlets during this quarter 2.

At Hyderabad Airport, a new last-minute duty-free shopping store has also been opened, which provides an additional facility for passengers to shop. Also Transit lounge commenced commercial operations in June of '24.

At Goa Airport, duty free further strengthened its product portfolio by introducing watches and cosmetic categories. Rolling tobacco was also introduced at the arrival store. Car parking system has been operationalized in July 2024.

I'm also happy to announce that as of July, 100% of physical work has been completed for the expansion of Delhi and Hyderabad, with operations at Delhi's new terminals stated to start shortly. As a matter of fact, as we speak, our release has already gone into the marketplace where I think on 16th night, the Terminal 1 will restart its operations and the new Terminal 1.

At Bhogapuram, about 34% of physical progress is complete as of July, while at Mopa, Goa, 91.5% of expansion is completed. At Crete, about 37.5% progress has been achieved as of July. All GMR Airports are among the top 100 global airports as per Skytrax ranking. Delhi retaining a rank of 36, and it is the only Indian airport in top 50. Hyderabad securing 61st position and our newly operational Goa airport getting 92nd position.

Skytrax awarded Delhi Airport with the best airport in India and South Asia Award for the 6th consecutive year, while Hyderabad Airport was judged the best airport staff in India and South Asia.

At GMR, we recognize that our success is deeply linked to the well-being of our planet and its people. That's why we are committed to integrating ESG principles into every aspect of our business. Our goal is to create a better future for all our stakeholders. ESG score at both Delhi and Hyderabad Airports was maintained at 5 for the quarter 1 and at Goa at 4.92.

CSR spend for quarter 1 totaled about INR 25 million. The total beneficiaries of over 140,000 persons with more than 90% being from vulnerable and marginalized groups. Delhi, Hyderabad and Goa Airports keep launching several initiatives and have received awards and recognitions for the same, acknowledging the group's efforts on the ESG front.

Both Delhi and Hyderabad Airports are targeting net 0 by 2030 and are rated at Level 4 plus transition by ACI. With various initiatives on the ESG front, we have been making steady progress on ESG ratings by various agencies, including S&P Global, MSCI and Sustainalytics, et cetera.

The presentation with all financial numbers are already available with you. If not, you can download it from the IR section of our website. We are available to respond to your questions on this call and offline after the call.

Now I would like to open the forum for queries, which may be addressed by my colleagues from the corporate and business teams. Thank you.

Operator

[Operator Instructions] The first question is from the line of Mohit Kumar from ICICI Securities.

Sorry to interrupt you, sir. May I request you to please use your handset.

M
Mohit Kumar
analyst

I'm using handset. Is it better now?

Operator

Can you come near to the mic and speak, please?

M
Mohit Kumar
analyst

My question is, given the merger has, I think, materialized in this Q2. What is the total number of shares after the issuance to Groupe ADP. And I'm supposed to conclude that the [indiscernible] of an FCCB everything has been issued to the Groupe ADP. Is that a fair understanding?

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

No, I think there is some misunderstanding. The FCCBs that were issued to ADP, a little more one year back, they continue to be FCCBs. So those have not been converted by ADP. They will continue for a period of 5 years from the date of issuance, minimum period of 5 years from the date of issuance. So there's no conversion from that aspect. And hence, the equity stack will not change.

M
Mohit Kumar
analyst

So the number of shares outstanding should be around 10 billion -- 10.5 billion shares, right? And there is a 2.6 billion of [indiscernible]. Is my number correct?

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

Correct.

M
Mohit Kumar
analyst

Understood, sir. My second question is on the -- you received TDSAT order a few months back. Is the order still being contested? Or have you received a penalty?

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

With regard to Delhi TDSAT orders?

M
Mohit Kumar
analyst

Yes.

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

No, the appeal has already been filed before the Supreme Court by the stakeholders. But the court has not given any stay on it. So that will be hearing either to take place.

M
Mohit Kumar
analyst

And what are your expectation when you will receive the Delhi tariff order?

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

Delhi tariff order, we have filed application, including the TDSAT benefits and also the Supreme Court benefit. Both together, we have already filed application.

M
Mohit Kumar
analyst

My question is when do you expect the Delhi tariff order to be in effect.

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

We are expecting -- because the SBI [indiscernible] has already been appointed for this purpose by the regulator. The work is going on full swing. Regulator has already asked SBI to complete the entire work within 6 months. So we're expecting the latest by December, otherwise, the last quarter.

So the order will be effective from 1st April 2024, while order will come in the last quarter of our fiscal '24 -- Fiscal '25. Sorry.

Operator

The next question is from the line of Karthik Chellappa from Indus Capital Advisors Limited.

K
Karthik Chellappa
analyst

I just have two questions. One on Delhi Airport and one on Hyderabad. On Delhi, if I were to look at our financials this quarter, so we have about a 7% passenger growth against which we've had are about 9% to 10% non-aero growth and a 4% EBITDA growth. I'm just curious to see that our non-aero revenue per pax is probably trending at about 2% to 3%, and our EBITDA per tax is actually down year-on-year.

What would explain this weakness? And when do you think we can start to see some nonlinearity in this growth where your EBITDA is actually growing faster than revenue? That's my first question, sir.

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

See, we are under base airport charges as far as the Delhi Airport is concerned. So you will be able to see the benefit of increase in EBITDA only when the tariffs are implemented, which we are expecting by the last quarter of this fiscal year, FY '25.

K
Karthik Chellappa
analyst

Okay. The aero part of it is clear to me, sir. When I look at the non-aero revenue, that on a per pax basis is rising only 2% to 3%. And that, I think, is also contributing some to the slow EBITDA growth. So I'm just trying to see when the non-aero revenue per pax can grow faster and which can probably translate into faster EBITDA growth. That's basically the angle where i'm coming.

U
Unknown Executive

Yes. I think when you look at the non-aero per pax revenue, what it takes into consideration is the inflationary impact as well as improved spend. So it can vary anything between 3% upwards also. When you really look at this particular quarter's number, it will have a combination of few things. Q1 is not the best quarter. Q4 is a quarter where you have the maximum revenue coming in both from the aero as well as non-aero point of view.

And there could be another contributing factors like spending duty free and all that. But in isolation, if you look at 3% growth in non-aero spend per pax is not a bad number. I would like to say. But you -- yes, we have been doing better than that. And that's the endeavor to by increased offerings and increased space, you will -- you should see increasingly this spend should go up.

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

Yes. So I think you need to take into account the seasonality. The first quarter of a fiscal year, which is your April to June, is usually stood lower than the last quarter of Q4 of the previous fiscal year. So the momentum continues to be there. I think the real measure of it will be, as we go forward, you will see the trend lines reappear on the growth of the non-aero side.

And another point is that terminal 1, which is now built for 40 million capacity, is getting opened up now, then you will see a real increase in non-aeronautical revenue, maybe in third quarter and fourth quarter.

K
Karthik Chellappa
analyst

Okay. Got it. My second question is again on Hyderabad. What I noticed is that we've had a very strong aero revenue as well as non-aero revenue. So on a per pax basis, that is also -- for aero, it is almost up double digit. And for non-aero, it's up about 7% odd on a per tax basis. But despite that, the EBITDA is actually slower, which means the OpEx is actually pretty high. So what is contributing to the high OpEx to Hyderabad? And when do you think you can actually start to see EBITDA growth also in the region of our revenue growth.

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

See, in case of the Hyderabad, since the expanded terminal is almost 3x bigger than the existing terminal. The costs are now started being incurred. And as far as the revenues are concerned, aeronautical is, of course, in line with the tariffs which are already in place.

Non-aeronautical revenue now almost be -- all the new shops are getting opened up. We are expecting the entire work will be completed by only third quarter of this financial year. You will able to see a good jump in the non-aeronautical revenue only in the fourth quarter.

K
Karthik Chellappa
analyst

Okay. Got it. And just one follow-up, sir. As far as the old Terminal 1 was concerned, which was being shut, what is the update on that? When is that going to be opened? And is there any repercussions to us in terms of additional CapEx or maintenance CapEx to be spent?

K
Kiran Grandhi
executive

There is no maintenance CapEx. The entire fall in the canopy has already been removed. And that structure has been in place -- and Saurabh has already explained that we are starting the operations on 16th night with SpiceJet. The entire operation of SpiceJet will be operated from Terminal 1 from 17th August onwards.

And Indigo is moving on 2nd or 3rd September to the Terminal 1. So it will be working with the same capacity what it was working earlier. However, the full capacity of terminal 1 will be used maybe in the third or fourth quarter once we complete the canopy work.

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

So it will be a slow progression of full utilization of the space in that terminal, which has been created, but because of the fire work, there will be a slight delay in that expansion of throughput through that airport. Basically, we are operating only one the check-in airline for the purpose of immediately starting the operations.

So we will open the old terminal 3 check-in airlines over a period of time, maybe by third quarter of this financial year.

K
Kiran Grandhi
executive

And the traffic has not been impacted because when the event happened, the traffic was moved to terminal 2 and terminal 3. Now going forward, the traffic will start moving back from terminal 2 and terminal 3 back to terminal 1. So from a revenue perspective, there is no impact.

K
Karthik Chellappa
analyst

Okay. Got it. This is very clear. Wish you and the team all the very best for the remaining quarters. I'll come back in the queue for additional questions.

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

Thank you.

Operator

The next question is from the line of Prateek Kumar from Jefferies Group.

P
Prateek Kumar
analyst

A couple of questions from my first question is on -- on the merger part of the [indiscernible] and like some litigation in the sector. So with Groupe ADP now coming directly as a listed company shareholder. Does it change anything operationally for the business? And how are they particularly like sort of looking forward to or like sort of contributing to travel retail opportunity investment for the company?

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

So Prateek, honestly, nothing has changed. They were at the 49% equity holder of GMR Airports, which was a subsidiary of the listco. Now they are just -- they're going to be 33% odd equity holder at the listco. They had same number of board seats as the GMR family had at the private entity level. They will have the same board seats, 5, both for GMR family nominees and ADP, they will have 5 nominees.

So nothing has actually changed. It's a very smooth migration of just shareholding from a private entity level to a public entity level. Obviously, the benefits are more from efficiency of movement of earnings once the entity starts -- the airport entities start to declare dividend. That will and now the Listco to receive the dividend in a more tax-efficient form, use that cash flows for its own balance sheet purposes and also for growth.

If you look at the numbers, Prateek, which, look for example, Hyderabad Airport has now started to throw. The free cash generation of Hyderabad is very, very robust. And obviously, when Hyderabad is not in an expansion mode, they will be upstreaming those cash to its shareholders.

Delhi, once the new tariff order comes, we'll be able to give you much better guidance. But we are targeting free cash for equity generation in next 3 to 4 years at Delhi Airport also. It's such a large airport. And once it starts to throw cash, it's big amounts of cash, which is there.

So the whole idea is now very much balance sheet focused, operational focus, generation of free cash for equity, developing it into a very strong platform for future opportunities that we may get as we go forward within India and Asia.

That is what our focus is. And ADP, of course, brings its strength in many aspects of airport development and operations. And what they were adding as contribution at the GMR Airports level, they are adding the same thing at the listed level which is GMR Airports Infrastructure Limited.

P
Prateek Kumar
analyst

Next question is on your debt, like that's around INR 280 billion as of first quarter, the mix of FCCB. How do you see like that panning out with the CapEx, which is lined up for our Bhogapuram Airport over the next 12 months?

K
Kiran Grandhi
executive

Bhogapuram Airport, now the construction is happening in full swing. And as Saurabh has explained, we have almost touched the 34% of the progress. In this current financial year, we are likely to spend about INR 12 billion to INR 13 billion on the CapEx.

P
Prateek Kumar
analyst

So our INR 28,000 crores net debt could move to like what number -- is it like a peak number? Or that can move to INR 30,000 crores number?

K
Kiran Grandhi
executive

Total debt of the group.

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

Of course, Bhogapuram debt as of today, what we have drawn is only about INR 700 crores. So if the total debt to be avail is INR 3,250 crores, of that INR 700 crores only drawn. So another INR 2,500 crores will be added in the next 2 years.

K
Kiran Grandhi
executive

Obviously, Prateek, the other airports will also be paring down debt. There would be some repayments of the principal that would be happening. So the net debt level, I think, should peak in the next 12 to 18 months, and then it should start to fall.

P
Prateek Kumar
analyst

Okay. And my question on international opportunities, the competition like recently been -- like sort of cost like bidding for two international airports in Kenya and Taiwan. So what do you think from that perspective as a KDP consortium?

K
Kiran Grandhi
executive

I think you're referring to a couple of these airports likely to be given on a nomination basis to particular competitor. So that's I think it's part of the game. And when it comes to we focusing on the opportunities -- right now, our focus is on Middle East. And more so where you can look at the asset-light opportunities like you would know we have submitted our bid for Kuwait Airport Terminal 2.

Likewise, we are also looking at Abha in Saudi, that's where we have submitted our request for qualification. So whilst there's a large landscape and competition. Yes, competition is there and competition will remain there. So we'll not take too much of what has gone to somebody on a nomination basis. That's part of the game, I would say.

S
Saurabh Chawla
executive

So Prateek, I think I will again allude to something I just stated earlier. We have enough on our plates. We have today almost 100 million passenger throughput in our airports, both domestic and international. And if they are growing at about 10% to 15% every year, we are adding 1 or maybe 2 medium-sized airports in our portfolio.

So our focus is more on our P&L, more on cash flow generation. And if within that focus, we do get an opportunity, which makes a compelling economic sense for our shareholders. We will surely not let it go. We will bid for those. But even if it doesn't come, for us, we are already adding 2 airports in our portfolio on an annual basis. That's the way we look at it.

P
Prateek Kumar
analyst

Sorry, can you elaborate on the RFQs in Kuwait and Saudi. This is related to what asset-light contract?

K
Kiran Grandhi
executive

So this Q Kuwait Terminal 2, I know where we have as GMR Infrastructure, we have put in our bid. So there are three bidders. We are awaiting the results. That's an asset-light bid for 10 years of operations and management contract. So -- and there are two other bidders. So that's on Kuwait.

Saudi, we have submitted our qualification and the next process will take place as we will go along in terms of RFP right? Still is in the early days, but these are the two places right now, we are putting our focus on.

Operator

The next question is from the line of Ganeshan from Unifi Capital.

U
Unknown Analyst

Prateek has already asked some of my questions, but maybe if I could just post one on the CapEx and then just get back to the debt. On the CapEx, okay, Hyderabad, Delhi mostly done. And Goa, I remember you mentioning about INR 200 crores in the last quarter. Now I'm just trying to see more on the Bhogapuram side? So we've done about 34%, 35%, and we're expecting INR 12 billion to INR 13 billion at the year-end, right? So if you could just tell us, is this CapEx more of a front-loaded nature? Or how is it going to be -- how split across the timeline of the project? So that's probably the first question.

And then given the number of subsidiaries and airports that we have right? So what would sort of be the maintenance CapEx on these assets once this airport expansion takes place?

K
Kiran Grandhi
executive

As far as the Bhogapuram is concerned, we are drawing the debt as and when required only. We have already infused with INR 811 crores of equity. So we have INR 800 crores equity is already infused and INR 700 crores on the draw. So we have been drawing a very less amount as and when required only. It is not front-loaded. It is only spread over a period of 2 years.

U
Unknown Analyst

Got it. And just on when you expect the maintenance CapEx to be on these assets, when is it fully commissioned.

K
Kiran Grandhi
executive

These are all -- see the expansion has been completed. Since we hardly have any operational CapEx, it will be normally -- operational CapEx will be in the range of about INR 1.5 billion to INR 2 billion in case of Delhi and around INR 1 billion INR 1.5 billion in case of Hyderabad.

U
Unknown Analyst

Okay. That is very clear now. You did mention that we are expecting that -- I mean, that to sort of peak out in the next 12 to 18 months and your focus on the P&L and cash flows, I'm pretty sure is very well appreciated. So I just wanted to pass that feedback.

Operator

[Operator Instructions] As there are no further questions, I would now like to hand the conference over to Mr. Saurabh Chawla for closing comments.
