RailTel Corporation of India has secured a ₹25.12 crore contract from the Andhra Pradesh Police for supplying and installing an integrated security solution. The project, which includes maintenance work, is scheduled to be completed by June 25, 2025.
This order highlights RailTel’s growing role in the security and surveillance sector, beyond its traditional railway services. It also strengthens the company’s non-railway revenue base. The deal is a domestic contract and involves no related party transactions, aligning with RailTel’s commitment to clean and transparent governance.
RailTel reported robust Q4 FY25 results. Net profit rose 46.3% year-on-year to ₹113.4 crore, while revenue jumped 57% to ₹1,308.28 crore. The company’s EBITDA surged 53.8% to ₹180 crore, though its EBITDA margin dipped slightly to 13.73% from 14% last year.

RailTel share price has surged over 30% in May 2025 alone. Despite a 10% dip over the past year, the stock has delivered over 170% returns in 3 years and 200% in 5 years, proving itself as a strong long-term performer.
Established in 2000, RailTel was set up to build a nationwide broadband, VPN, telecom, and multimedia network aimed at enhancing train control operations and railway safety. It is a "Navratna" public sector enterprise under the Government of India. Today, RailTel's extensive network spans nearly 6,000 railway stations, connecting key commercial and administrative hubs across the country.
With a new ₹25 crore government order and a strong quarterly performance, RailTel continues to expand its presence in India’s digital and security infrastructure. The recent stock rally reflects growing investor confidence in the company’s future prospects.
