Bajel Projects Forms JV With Al Sharif in Saudi Arabia

20 Feb 2026 CW Team

The joint venture will focus on high voltage and extra high voltage infrastructure, including overhead transmission lines, substation packages and underground cabling projects. The venture will target projects that require complex technical execution and inter-regional transmission corridors. EPC will form the principal scope of operations under the joint venture.

The timing of the partnership coincides with Saudi Arabia's grid modernisation and renewable integration efforts under Vision 2030 and beyond. By combining Bajel's technical strengths in extra high voltage execution with ASC's local experience, the parties aim to position the joint venture as a partner for utility and infrastructure companies across the Kingdom. The companies expect to bid for large-scale transmission and substation programmes as the Saudi market accelerates investment.

The managing director and chief executive of Bajel indicated that the agreement represents a defining moment in the company’s strategy to expand outside India and to participate in complex transmission projects that support the Kingdom's vision. ASC's chief executive said the partnership will pool resources to develop sustainable transmission networks and to connect renewable energy to load centres.

Al Sharif Contracting is part of Al Sharif Group Holdings, a multibillion business group that has operated in the Kingdom and abroad for four decades and that has interests in contracting, manufacturing, hospitality, renewable energy and electric mobility. Bajel was formerly part of Bajaj Electricals Limited and draws on two decades of project management and execution in power transmission and distribution.
