The orders have come from leading public sector organizations — the Power Grid Corporation of India Limited and the Rail Vikas Nigam Limited and involves setting up high end transmission lines and substations as well as a project for the Indian Railways.
The order secured from the Power Grid Corporation of India (PGCIL) involves construction of a part of the country's first 800 kV HVDC transmission system for transmitting power from the north east to the northern and western parts of India. Extending across 190 km, this HVDC bi-pole transmission line is valued at Rs.169 crore.

Meanwhile, in a major foray into the high end 765 kv segment of substations, L&T secured three major orders from PGCIL valued at Rs 480 crores for the construction of 765 kV Substations at Balia, Lucknow and Satna along with associated transformer packages.
The 800 kV HVDC Transmission Line project and the 765 kV substation orders represent technological breakthroughs and they auger well for L&T’s growth potential in these critical segments.
