In May this year, Texmaco Rail and Engineering said it had secured a major international rail opportunity in South Africa valued at more than ₹4,045 crore through a letter of award from a South African train operating company.
The order covers the supply of more than 2,235 freight wagons across multiple variants, along with 30 diesel locomotives.
The total estimated value of the opportunity is projected upwards of ₹4,045 crore. The engagement also includes a proposed long-term 15-year maintenance partnership, creating a lifecycle business opportunity for the company in the region.
Texmaco said this marks one of its largest international rolling stock opportunities and represents a key milestone in its global expansion plans. The project is aligned with South Africa’s rail sector reforms and the emerging open access freight rail framework aimed at increasing investments in freight mobility, rolling stock modernisation, mining logistics and railway infrastructure.
