What is Infrastructure Investment Trust (InvIT)?

An Infrastructure Investment Trust (InvITs) is an Investment Scheme similar to a mutual fund, which enables direct investment of money from individual and institutional investors in infrastructure projects to earn a small portion of the income as return.
