The revised estimates cover not only the electrification works but also include RITES’ project management consultancy (PMC) services. As part of the turnkey approach, RITES will handle the design, supply, installation, testing, and commissioning of the electrification network.
The revised cost allocation underlines the increased scale and scope of the project, reflecting changes in material costs and labour dynamics. This project is a key milestone in India’s push for greener and more efficient railway infrastructure.

RITES recently reported a 25% year-on-year decline in net profit for the latest quarter, amounting to ₹82.5 crore, down from ₹110.2 crore last year. The company’s revenue also fell by 7.1% to ₹541 crore, compared to ₹582.4 crore during the same period last year.
Other financial metrics include:
EBITDA: Declined 23% YoY to ₹106.4 crore
EBITDA margin: Narrowed to 19.7% from 23.6%
Despite this, the company’s shares saw a slight increase, closing at ₹275.20 on the BSE, up by ₹1.35 or 0.49%.
The revised project estimates are expected to strengthen RITES’ order book and contribute to long-term revenue growth. Investors remain optimistic about the company’s role in advancing railway electrification across India, reflecting positively on the RITES share price.
RITES’ revised ₹531.77 crore project cost highlights its pivotal role in enhancing railway electrification. As the company progresses with this critical infrastructure project, it continues to play a key part in India’s transportation modernisation initiatives.
