The Tamil Nadu Urban Infrastructure Financial Services Limited (TNUIFSL) has been set up to manage a Trust fund ----Tamil Nadu Urban Development Fund (TNUDF). The trust has been established to manage urban infrastructure projects in Tamil Nadu. The deployment of funds will be on the basis of a management contract and will be managed by TNUIFSL. Eligible borrowers include Urban Local Bodies (ULBs), Statutory Boards, Public Undertakings and potential Private Investors. TNUIFSL has implemented projects by applying the Environmental and Social Report (ESR). Based on the experience it is found that the ESR requires updating and revision. There have been some additions to the laws on environment and on social policies, since the ESR was originally drafted. These have necessitated the review of the ESR to make it in line with the current practices. 2. The fund has a corporate Trustee Company (TC) with shareholdings from Government of Tamil Nadu (GoTN) and three leading Financial Institutions - ICICI (Industrial Credit and Investment Corporation of India), HDFC (Housing Development and Financial Corporation) and IL&FS (Infrastructure Leasing and Financial Services Limited). To fund project development activities, a new Grant Fund (GF) has been established. 3. TNUDF will channel increased financial resources, including private financing, into high priority infrastructure investments. Specifically the fund would: ❏ fund viable urban infrastructure projects; ❏ mobilise resources from capital markets; ❏ facilitate participation of private sector in infrastructure development through direct investment and joint delivery mechanism of infrastructure services; ❏ would earn returns for contributors and ensure sustainability of the fund; ❏ improve financial management of ULBs, enabling them to access debt finance from markets 4. The projects financed would: ❏ ensure that investments are commensurate with service demands; ❏ earn stipulated economic and financial returns; ❏ be institutionally viable so that the borrowers are capable of implementing the management arrangements to do so ; ❏ ensure that no adverse environmental and social impacts take place or that the borrower will be taking measures to avoid or minimise such impacts in consonance with the Environment and Resettlement Framework (ERF - Originally
