AGRA (Metro Rail News): After Uttar Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation (UPMRC) opened financial bids, Larsen & Toubro emerged as the lowest bidder for the 750 V DC Third Rail electrification system of the Agra Metro Phase 1 project. Agra Metro’s AGE-1 & 2 is one of the few packages that has been tendered separately, with the rolling stocks, tracks, etc., getting bundled along with the newly operational Kanpur Metro.

UPMRC invited bids for this tender in October 2021 with an Rs. 450 cr estimate and 36-month deadline funded by the European Investment Bank (EIB) through a 450 million Euros loan.
