The backstory (grounded)

Anzen India Energy Yield Plus Trust, an Infrastructure Investment Trust (InvIT), was established in November 2021 and registered with SEBI in January 2022. It is managed by Edelweiss Real Assets Managers Limited (ERAML), part of the Edelweiss Alternatives business. The Trust focuses on acquiring and managing quality energy assets, including transmission lines and renewable projects.

Its initial portfolio was acquired from Edelweiss Infrastructure Yield Plus (EIYP), which itself is managed by Edelweiss Financial Services and EAAA India Alternatives. Anzen has a history of acquiring assets from EIYP, including transmission projects like NRSS-XXXI and DMTCL in November 2022. It also previously acquired Solzen Urja Private Limited from ReNew Private Limited in FY2025 and holds a Right of First Offer (ROFO) on 12 other solar projects totaling approximately 813 MWp.

Edelweiss Infrastructure Yield Plus (EIYP) had initially acquired its stake in these solar assets and SSUPL from French utility major Engie in March 2021.
