RVNL Secures Rs 9.68 bn Bridge Contract From East Coast Railway

26 Jun 2026 CW Team

The scope covers the construction of four substantial bridges over the Birupa, Mahanadi, Kathjori and Kuakhai rivers using open-web steel girders to expedite erection and provide long span capacity. Work forms part of the third and fourth railway line development along the Bhadrak-Vizianagaram corridor and the specific sections between Nergundi-Barang and Khurda Road-Vizianagaram. The bridges are intended to enhance both freight throughput and passenger connectivity across the region. The design and execution are aligned with broader capacity enhancement objectives for the route.

The total order value includes 18 per cent GST, and the project carries a completion timeline of 1,095 days, or nearly three years. The company has clarified that neither its promoters nor promoter group entities have an interest in the awarding authority and that the contract does not constitute a related-party transaction. Project management will proceed in the normal course of business and will be integrated with existing resources and contracts where appropriate. The execution plan emphasises timely delivery and technical compliance.

The award further consolidates the company's order book and reinforces its market position as a leading railway infrastructure developer in the country. The contract is among several significant infrastructure wins recorded during the current financial year and reflects continued public investment in rail capacity. Stakeholders will monitor progress through standard regulatory disclosures and subsequent project updates. The development is expected to have a material effect on regional connectivity once construction is completed.
