RLDA is a statutory authority under the Ministry of Railways for developing Railway land and assets. The development plan has four key mandates, including the leasing of the commercial sites, redevelopment of the colony, redevelopment of the station, and multi-functional complexes.

The Indian Railways have an approximate 43,000 hectares of the vacant region throughout India. Currently, RLDA is managing 84 railway colony redevelopment projects.

It has recently leased out one railway colony in Guwahati for its redevelopment. It has more than 84 commercial sites in India for leasing, and the bidders will be chosen for each through an open and transparent bidding process. RLDA is also working on 60 stations in a phased manner, whereas its subsidiary IRSDC has taken up additional 63 stations.

In the first redevelopment phase, RLDA has focused on prominent stations such as New Delhi, Tirupati, Dehradun, Nellore, Puducherry, and Cuttack for the redevelopment. The railway stations in India will be redeveloped over a Private-Public Partnership (PPP) model as a part of the Smart City Project launched by the government of India.
