Background:
Larsen & Toubro (L&T) Ltd. has secured a major order from the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) for the Mumbai Metro, marking its third consecutive contract in the Line 4 and 4A corridor. The project, Package CA-298, is worth between ₹1,000 crore and ₹2,500 crore.
The contract is for electrifying the 24.72 km-long Line 4, running from Bhakti Park in Wadala to Cadbury Junction. The line will have 22 elevated stations. L&T will take care of designing, building, installing, and testing the power and traction system. The company will also provide a SCADA system for 32 stations, depots, and substations.
Additionally, L&T will handle electrical and mechanical works, lifts, and escalators across the 22 stations and two depots. The contract includes five years of comprehensive maintenance, all to be executed by L&T’s in-house design and execution team.
This order follows L&T’s earlier wins in the Line 4 and 4A corridor. The company had secured Package CA-234, which covered rolling stock, CBTC signaling, telecommunications, platform screen doors, and depot machinery for the corridor, as well as Package CA-168 for 19.5 km of ballast-less track works across 15 stations.
L&T has also been securing large contracts in other sectors recently. The hydrocarbon business won a ₹5,000 crore to ₹10,000 crore order from Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd. (BPCL), while the buildings and factories business secured contracts worth ₹2,500 crore to ₹5,000 crore from the Madhya Pradesh State Tourism Development Corporation.
L&T shares were trading 0.2% higher at ₹4,066 apiece around 11:10 am, with the stock showing a 10.9% gain so far this year.
The latest order underscores L&T’s continued dominance in India’s infrastructure and metro segment, consolidating its position as a key player in urban transportation development.
