This substantial order encompasses a total of 5,376 wheelsets (2688 Motor wheelsets and 2688 Trailer wheelsets) and is valued at approximately ₹215 crores.

JWL's position in the high-speed rail and passenger freight rail segments is further strengthened by the ₹215 crore deal.

In line with India's infrastructure development and the Viksit Bharat 2047 goal, JWL is expanding its portfolio through these efforts while concentrating on dependable, innovative solutions.
