GPT Infra Soars on Rs 4.81 Bn Railway Bridge Order from SER Kolkata

Shares of GPT Infraprojects surged 6.53% to Rs 128.05 after the company announced securing a Rs 4.81 Bn contract from CAO Construction, South Eastern Railway, for a significant infrastructure project.

The order includes the construction of Bridge No. 57 over the river Rupnarayan, comprising 2x30.5m OWG, 7x91.4m OWG, and 2x30.5m OWG, along with viaducts on both approaches—11x30.5m and 15x30.5m composite girders.

As part of the project, GPT Infra will also build the Kolaghat Station on elevated Platforms 1 and 2, situated on a diverted alignment of the Howrah-Kharagpur route in the Kharagpur Division. The project will be implemented under the Engineering, Procurement & Construction (EPC) model.

GPT Infraprojects, the flagship of the GPT Group, is a Kolkata-based infrastructure major operating in two core segments: infrastructure and concrete sleepers. The company specialises in executing large-scale civil projects, particularly bridges and road-over-bridges (ROBs) for the Indian Railways. Its sleeper division manufactures and supplies concrete railway sleepers for both domestic and African markets.

The company recently reported a 43.7% jump in consolidated net profit to Rs 214.2 million for Q3 FY25, with revenues rising 9.6% year-on-year to Rs 2.78 billion, reflecting strong operational momentum.
