PNC Infratech Share Price Hits 20% Lower Circuit; Faces 3-Year Debarment from NHAI Bidding

PNC Infratech Limited has been debarred from participating in any bids for the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH), the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), or their executing agencies for a period of 3 years, as per the exchange filing.  

This follows a regulatory intimation issued by the company on September 14, 2026, under Regulation 30 of the SEBI Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements Regulations, 2015. 

NHAI Debarment Order 

The debarment stems from an official letter received by the company from the NHAI on September 11, 2026.  

The letter extended the 3-year debarment of Awadh Expressway Private Limited, a concessionaire promoted by PNC Infratech, to the company itself.  

This action restricts PNC Infratech from participating in any bids related to MoRTH, NHAI, or their executing agencies. 

Operational and Financial Impact 

Despite the debarment, PNC Infratech has stated that this restriction will not affect its going concern status or its current ongoing projects.  

However, the company has indicated that the financial impacts of this debarment will be disclosed at a later date.

Conclusion 

PNC Infratech's 3-year debarment from NHAI bids, effective from September 11, 2026, extends the restriction initially placed on Awadh Expressway Private Limited. The company assures that its ongoing projects remain unaffected, with financial impacts to be disclosed later.
