Considered to be the lifeline of Andhra Pradesh, the project involves 48 gates, each 20-m-high spanning 1.19 km, requiring pouring of 36.7 lakh cu m of concrete, 50,000 tonne of steel and 9.3 lakh tonne of cement, which has all been completed in a record time. It also includes a 930-MW hydel power project.

At present, NEC is executing a few works in Qatar and is looking to bid for dam projects and hydel projects in Africa and Bhutan. The company is rooting to touch a topline of Rs 60 billion this fiscal.
