17 Sep 2025 CW Team

Larsen & Toubro’s (L&T) Transportation Infrastructure business has secured an order valued between Rs 25 crore and Rs 50 billion from the National High Speed Rail Corporation Limited (NHSRCL) for the Mumbai-Ahmedabad High Speed Rail (MAHSR) corridor.

The contract, Package T1, involves the design, supply, construction, testing, and commissioning of 156 route km of high-speed ballastless track on a Design-Build Lump Sum Price basis. The stretch runs from Mumbai’s Bandra-Kurla Complex to Zaroli village in Gujarat and includes 21 km of underground track and 135 km of elevated viaduct.

Second track-work order on MAHSR project

This is L&T’s second major track-work package for the project. In April 2022, the company won Package T3, covering 116 km from south of Vadodara to Sabarmati depot. With both orders combined, L&T is now executing more than half of the track-works for the 508 km Mumbai-Ahmedabad corridor.

Japanese Shinkansen technology for India’s bullet train

The project will deploy Japanese Shinkansen J Slab Track Technology, engineered for speeds up to 320 kmph. The technology ensures superior ride quality, long-term durability, and simplified maintenance.

S V Desai, Whole-time Director & Sr EVP (Civil Infrastructure), L&T, said, “Our success in the T3 package involved rapid technology absorption, indigenisation of plant and machinery, and value engineering. This has been a key factor in our approach to this new order, and we are confident of delivering on time.”

L&T’s leadership in ballastless track systems

L&T has a proven track record in ballastless track technology, with ongoing projects in Indian metro systems including Bengaluru, Chennai, and Mumbai, as well as international assignments in Jakarta.
