L&T Secures Major Contract for Riyadh Metro Extension

The RealCase readMedium impact Positive

L&T's Heavy Civil Infrastructure business secured a 'Major' contract from the Royal Commission of Riyadh City for the Riyadh Metro Red Line extension. The scope includes designing and constructing an 8.4 km metro line with five stations. The contract value falls between ₹5,000 to ₹10,000 crore.

Why it matters

The contract is classified as 'Major', indicating a substantial value that will contribute to the company's order book and revenue, but it is not an 'Ultra-Mega' or 'Mega' project which would have a higher impact.
