Paras Railtech Private Limited has received the Letter of Acceptance (LoA) for the second ballastless track contract, Package CA-273, of Mumbai Metro Line 2B (Yellow Line). The 23.6-km corridor runs between Andheri West and Mandale.

The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) had floated the tender in March 2025 with an estimated value of Rs 1.22 billion. Technical bids were opened on 22 April, with three firms submitting offers. Following technical evaluation on 14 May, two bids were rejected during the financial assessment. Paras Railtech was declared the lowest bidder and on 11 August 2025 was awarded the LoA.

According to the financial bids, Paras Railtech quoted Rs 999 million, Purvakriti Infrastructure Pvt Ltd Rs 189 million, and Rahee Infratech Limited Rs 120 million.

The contract duration is 600 days, during which Paras Railtech will be responsible for the design, supply, installation, testing and commissioning of standard gauge ballastless track. The alignment will run from Andheri West Station (excluding station chainage 34+035.873) to ITO Station in Bandra-Kurla Complex (including station chainage 44+857.698).

This package marks another critical step in advancing Line 2B, which is expected to enhance connectivity across Mumbai’s western and central corridors.
