GPT Infraprojects Ltd has informed the exchanges that it has been ranked the lowest bidder for a railway contract worth ₹199.17 crore.  

The update was shared on December 9, 2025. The order has been issued by the North Eastern Railway in Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh, for work on the Khalilabad-Bahraich section.  

Work Involving 2 Bridges 

The contract covers construction linked to Bridge No. 247 and Bridge No. 287. Each bridge is planned with 10 spans of 61 metres. GPT Infraprojects will handle the substructure, the fabrication of the superstructure, and the launching process.  

Both bridges will use Double-D type well foundations, and the design follows RDSO’s 25-ton axle loadstandard.  

Location on the Rapti River 

The bridges fall on a stretch that crosses the Rapti river, where water levels change sharply during certain months.  

Railway work in this area often requires long spans, heavy foundations, and adjustments based on seasonal flow. The section forms part of a regular operating route used by passenger and freight trains in eastern Uttar Pradesh. 

Typical Project Requirements 

Assignments involving river bridges usually need staged execution. This may include well sinking, steel fabrication at a separate yard, movement of large components, and controlled launching across the river. Progress can depend on river conditions, availability of clear working periods, and coordination with railway teams for checks at different stages of construction. 

The filing notes that GPT Infraprojects has been marked as L1, and the contract will move ahead after the railway authority completes formal procedures.
