“The primary objective of this MOU is to outline the terms and conditions under which RVNL and DMIA may collaborate to work jointly to participate into the Railway Infrastructure and services projects in the ASEAN market and other markets as agreed, with special focus on establishing a manufacturing base in Malaysia for railway coaches and other railway products for catering to the growing need of ASEAN countries,” the company said in an exchange filing.

The partnership aims to cater to the growing needs of the ASEAN countries by establishing a manufacturing base for railway coaches and other railway products in Malaysia.

This partnership comes at a crucial time for RVNL, which has been under pressure at the bourses. Earlier this month, RVNL’s Q1 net profit sank 34% to ₹224 Cr, missing estimates. This was primarily due to weak execution linked to central elections and geopolitical turmoil.

Price Action: RVNL’s share price was up 0.39% to close at ₹563.90 on Wednesday.
