RVNL wins North Eastern Railway bridge project worth Rs 1.66 billion

Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) announced on 27 October that it has emerged as the lowest bidder (L1) for a significant infrastructure project awarded by the North Eastern Railway, as part of its routine business operations.

The project involves the construction of the substructure for Important Bridge No. 50, which will comprise 14 spans of 61 metres each. It will feature a Double D-type well foundation designed for a double line and adhere to the RDSO 25T axle loading standard.

The bridge will be built over the river Gandak, situated between Paniyahwa and Valmikinagar stations, as part of the doubling work on the Gorakhpur Cantt–Valmikinagar section of the North Eastern Railway.

The total project value stands at Rs 1.66 billion (including GST). The contract, awarded by the North Eastern Railway, reinforces RVNL’s standing as one of India’s leading railway infrastructure development firms.

Earlier, on 17 October, RVNL had also been declared the lowest bidder (L1) in a reverse auction held by the South Central Railway. That project involves the design, supply, erection, testing, and commissioning for the OHE upgradation of the existing 1x25kV system to a 2x25kV AT feeding system, including feeder and earthing works, in the Ramgundam (RDM)–Kazipet (KZJ) section of the Secunderabad Division.

The total cost of this project is Rs 1.44 billion (including taxes), with an execution period of 18 months, further strengthening RVNL’s position in the railway infrastructure sector.

Shares of Rail Vikas Nigam Limited closed 0.09 per cent higher at Rs 329.75 on the NSE on 27 October.
