After Hyderabad Airport Metro Ltd. (HAML) opened technical bids, Larsen & Toubro and NCC are the only 2 bidders for the civil construction and system procurement contract of Hyderabad Metro's 31 km Airport Express Line.

Under Hyderabad Metro's Phase 2 project, this semi-high-speed rail line along the Outer Ring Road (ORR) of Hyderabad would be constructed. Ten stations—nine elevated and one underground—will link Mindspace Junction with Rajiv Gandhi International (Shamshabad) Airport.
