This win follows a string of successful bids by RVNL. Earlier this month, a joint venture between RVNL and Rithwik Projects secured a ₹613 crore rail infrastructure project in Karnataka. Additionally, a consortium led by RVNL, HFCL, and Aerial Telecom Solutions was declared the lowest bidder for a ₹7,000 crore order from Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL).

The company’s second-quarter net profit declined by 27.12% to ₹286.89 crore. The railway major's revenue also fell 1.2% to ₹4,854.95 crore, missing the street's estimates for the company. However, RVNL maintained a positive outlook for the second half of FY25, with the company’s Director of Finance, Sanjeeb Kumar, expressing confidence about hitting a topline of ₹22,000 crore to ₹23,000 crore in FY25.
