Texmaco Rail & Engineering secures ₹86.85 crores wagon order from UltraTech Cement

Texmaco Rail & Engineering, the flagship company of the Adventz Group and a leading force in India’s rail mobility and infrastructure landscape, has secured a major order from UltraTech Cement, the country’s largest cement producer, for the supply of specialised freight wagons. Valued at approximately ₹86.85 crore, this repeat order underscores Texmaco’s enduring partnership with India’s industrial core and its alignment with national priorities such as Make in India, Aatmanirbhar Bharat, and Viksit Bharat.

The contract covers BCFCM1-type wagons and brake vans for UltraTech’s Maihar Cement Works and Sarlanagar Cement Works in Madhya Pradesh. Built to the latest RDSO-approved specifications, these wagons are optimised for bulk cement transport with enhanced payload capacity, durability, and operational reliability. The accompanying brake vans will be equipped with solar-powered systems, reinforcing Texmaco’s commitment to sustainable and energy-efficient logistics.

Speaking on the development, Sudipta Mukherjee, Managing Director, Texmaco Rail & Engineering, said, “These orders from UltraTech Cement are a powerful endorsement of Texmaco’s engineering excellence and our unwavering commitment to nation-building. Every wagon we deliver is a step toward a more efficient, greener, and self-reliant India. As we support the cement sector’s supply chain transformation, we remain focused on designing solutions that blend precision, sustainability, and scale; hallmarks of India’s industrial resurgence.”

Texmaco Rail & Engineering continues to strengthen India’s rail logistics backbone through advanced engineering, indigenous manufacturing, and sustainability-led innovation. Sustained investments in R&D and technology have positioned the company as a key enabler of India’s infrastructure renaissance.

The latest UltraTech Cement order includes BCFCM1-type wagons, built to the latest RDSO-approved specifications and optimised for bulk cement transport with higher payload capacity, durability, and operational reliability. The accompanying brake vans will feature solar-powered systems, underscoring Texmaco’s focus on energy-efficient and climate-conscious logistics solutions.

Building on this momentum, Texmaco has secured multiple orders across cement, steel, coal, and infrastructure sectors, further consolidating its leadership in rolling stock manufacturing. With India’s infrastructure expansion and rail electrification drive gathering pace, Texmaco is strategically placed to deliver high-capacity, future-ready freight solutions that support both economic growth and environmental stewardship.

To reinforce this growth trajectory, the company’s Board of Directors has approved key leadership reappointments. Indrajit Mookerjee has been granted a one-year extension as Executive Director & Vice Chairman effective April 2026, while Sudipta Mukherjee has been reappointed as Managing Director for a fresh five-year term beginning June 2026, subject to shareholder approval.

Commenting on the milestone, Saroj Kumar Poddar, Chairman, Texmaco Rail & Engineering and Chairman, Adventz Group, said, “Texmaco is at an important juncture in its growth journey, with large opportunities opening up in the rail and infrastructure sector. The reappointments of Indrajit Mookerjee and Sudipta Mukherjee reflect the Board’s confidence in their proven leadership and commitment. Their continued stewardship will ensure stability, strengthen execution, and drive the company’s strategic priorities in the years ahead.”

With leadership continuity, a robust order pipeline, and sustained innovation, Texmaco is well positioned to expand its domestic and global footprint while delivering on India’s vision of a modern, self-reliant, and sustainable rail ecosystem.
