The share price of Rail Vikas Nigam Ltd was ₹394.30 on the BSE at 15:30 PM IST on 22 September 2025. The price is within the 52-week trading range of ₹162.00 to ₹455.20. The stock has been actively traded in the last few weeks due to order inflows for the company from Railway Electrification Projects, and the interest of investors in infrastructure contracts.
This contract reinforces RVNL's position in the modernisation of the railway electrification structure. An upgrade from 1×25 kV to 2×25 kV increases the capacity for heavier freight loads and aligns with the government's objective of efficiency in rail corridors.
A 24-month execution timeline suggests that the project involves detailed civil, electrical and system‐integration components. RVNL’s order book will see this as a value-add under its recurring business in PSU rail works.
RVNL has made the announcement via an exchange filing under relevant regulatory norms, confirming the Letter of Acceptance (LoA).
Project terms follow standard contract conditions, with no related-party issues flagged in the public disclosures.
The contract victory is likely to have a good effect on sentiment towards infrastructure and railway stocks. The Southern Railway project is part of capacity and efficiency improvements in strategic corridors, with a loading target of 3,000 metric tonnes. This effort also aligns with national priorities around improving logistics, freight movement, and reliability throughout the network.
