INDIA —Adani Group subsidiary Cemindia Projects Limited has emerged as the lowest bidder for the underground construction package of Jaipur Metro Line 2, submitting a financial bid of 9.21 billion Indian rupees. The bid opening concluded on October 15, 2026, positioning the engineering firm ahead of competing infrastructure tenders submitted by major engineering conglomerates including Larsen & Toubro, Tata Projects, AFCONS, and Shapoorji Pallonji, subject to final contract award by transit authorities.
Cemindia Projects Limited is an Indian engineering, procurement, and construction company operating under the Adani Group conglomerate, specializing in heavy civil infrastructure, marine works, and urban transit developments. Jaipur Metro Rail Corporation oversees the planning, development, and operation of urban rapid transit rail infrastructure across the capital region of Rajasthan.
The awarded civil engineering package involves constructing twin underground tunnels, an underground ramp, and sub-surface station infrastructure near Sanganer Police Station and Jaipur International Airport. The subterranean alignment spans from Pinjrapole Gaushala to the B2B Crossing along Tonk Road, passing beneath airport airspace. Metro planning authorities are concurrently evaluating technical feasibility for an additional underground transit station near Jawahar Circle to serve a planned commercial development corridor.
This development underscores accelerated public capital expenditure in Tier-2 Indian urban rapid transit systems to manage growing transit volumes. For civil engineering contractors, underground tunneling specialists, and urban real estate developers, expanding rail connectivity to regional airport terminals enhances intermodal transport links, drives commercial land value appreciation, and generates substantial sub-contracting opportunities across urban construction supply chains.
