Rail Vikas Nigam Ltd. announced on Thursday, November 6, that it has emerged as the lowest bidder for a railway electrification contract valued at approximately ₹272 crore from Central Railway. The project will be executed under the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) mode and is scheduled to be completed within 24 months.
The contract includes the design, supply, testing, and commissioning of traction substations, sectioning posts (SPs), and sub-sectioning posts (SSPs) across the Daund–Solapur sections of Central Railway.
This project aims to enhance traction systems and facilitate improved operational efficiency in line with Central Railway’s 3,000 MT loading target. The scope reflects ongoing infrastructure expansion efforts to strengthen India’s railway electrification network.
In its regulatory filing, the company clarified that the promoters have no interest in Central Railway and that the awarded order does not qualify as a related party transaction. This disclosure aligns with transparency norms followed in government-awarded infrastructure contracts.
The latest project win follows a series of contract awards secured in recent months. In October, the company received three new orders, including a ₹165.5 crore infrastructure project from the North Eastern Railway. These projects form part of its normal course of business operations, reinforcing its steady project execution record in the railway infrastructure sector.
As of November 06, 2025, RVNL Share Price closed at ₹318, marking a decline of 2.46% on the NSE. The company has a market capitalisation of ₹66,272 crore, with a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 55.6 and a book value of ₹45.9.
Over the past year, RVNL Share Price has reached a high of ₹502 and a low of ₹295. The stock currently offers a dividend yield of 0.54%, with a return on capital employed (ROCE) of 14.7% and a return on equity (ROE) of 14.0%. The face value of the stock stands at ₹10.
