JSPL receives regular rail supplier status from Indian Railways
Jindal Steel and Power Ltd (JSPL) has secured the regular rail supplier status from the Indian Railways thereby becoming the first private company in India to be awarded such a status from the national transporter. This status will enable JSPL to supply 60 kg 880 grade (90UTS) rails. MD of JSPL, V R Sharma, informed that the Railways, its subsidiary and track laying contractors can source 60 kg 880 grade (90UTS) rails manufactured by the company and utilize them for their ongoing and upcoming projects. The Research Designs and Standards Organization (RDSO), which works under the ambit of the Railway Board, has approved field performance of 60 kg 880 Grade (90 UTS) rails manufactured by JSPL at its Raigarh plant. This would be a push towards an Atmanirbhar Bharat and is also an achievement for the company's rail business. Apart from this, JSPL has also started supplying 1080 grade head hardened rails and 880-grade prime (Class-A) rails to various metro rail projects in India including Rail Vikas Nigam Limited for the construction of the Kolkata Metro Rail Project and Pune Metro.
