Larsen and Toubro bags Rs.10.47 bn from Indian Railways

 

 

Mumbai, July 8: Construction and engineering major Larsen and Toubro
(L&T) has bagged a Rs.10.47-billion order from the Indian Railways to
set up a wheel manufacturing plant in Bihar, the company said Tuesday.

In a regulatory statement, the company said the plant, with a capacity
to manufacture 100,000 wheels annually, will be set up at Saran in
Chhapra district in two years.

The turnkey project will have no foreign collaboration, the statement
added.

The contract involves engineering, procurement and construction of the
entire plant, apart from electrical installation along with designing,
setting up and commissioning of machinery.

Last year, L&T launched an autonomous rail business unit to explore
opportunities such as dedicated freight corridor, railway station
modernisation, rail-based urban mass transportation and other similar
projects.

The company is also studying various upcoming public-private
participation (PPP) railway projects.
