J Kumar Infraprojects (JKIL) has won Package 3 of the 19.88 km Chennai Port - Maduravoyal Expressway project in Tamil Nadu, after winning Packages 2, 1 & 4 earlier this month.

The company was declared the low bidder for this 4.485-kilometer section that connects Aminjikarai (km 9.700) and Maduravoyal (km 14.185).

The NHAI had invited tenders for its construction in July 2022, with an estimated cost of Rs. 871.49 crore and a construction deadline of 910 days. In April, technical bids were opened, revealing seven bidders.
