Brahmaputra Infrastructure L1 Bid for Kokrajhar–Gelephu Package

The scope covers earthwork in formation and cutting, blanketing, construction of reinforced cement concrete box and drains, retaining and toe walls. The package includes nine minor bridges and one Road Over Bridge and railway electrification comprising design, supply, erection, testing and commissioning of Overhead Equipment (OHE), general electrical, signalling and telecom works. The JV will mobilise plant, machinery and manpower to carry out civil and electrical tasks.

The package spans from Kokrajhar station, excluding the station, to chainage four point one hundred and from Salakati station, excluding the station, to chainage zero point four hundred, marking the starting chainage of the new line. The Kokrajhar–Gelephu link is 69 km long and was announced under the India–Bhutan memorandum of understanding signed in September 2025 at an approximate project cost of Rs34.56 bn. The award therefore represents the first construction package on the corridor.

Securing the opening package establishes the BIL-HBMCPL JV as contractor of record at the point closest to the existing Indian network and creates a working interface with NFR-CONST from the outset. The position provides a platform from which the JV can bid for subsequent packages as they are released. Coordination of logistics and site establishment will be required to meet railway construction protocols.

Brahmaputra Infrastructure Limited is an infrastructure construction company engaged in civil, road and railway engineering, procurement and construction projects with a focus on the Northeast region. The company has stated it will make a further disclosure to the exchange upon receipt of the formal letter of acceptance or execution of the definitive contract agreement with NFR-CONST in accordance with regulatory requirements. Investors will be informed through prescribed channels as the contract process advances.
