KEC International has announced fresh order wins worth ₹1,050 crore across multiple business verticals on January 1, 2026, significantly boosting the company's diversified project pipeline. In a major development, the global infrastructure EPC company secured its first-ever wind energy order, winning a Balance of Plant (BoP) package for a 100+ MW wind power project in southern India from a reputed private developer. This milestone marks KEC's formal entry into the wind energy BoP space, capitalizing on rising activity amid India's renewable capacity expansion. According to Vimal Kejriwal, MD & CEO of KEC International, the company is encouraged by the broad-based order inflow, particularly highlighting that the maiden wind energy order opens a new avenue within the renewable energy portfolio.
The civil business has added a new order in the Buildings & Factories segment, receiving a downstream project in western India from an existing client linked to a leading steel manufacturer. This strengthens KEC's presence in industrial and heavy engineering construction, where repeat orders continue to support stable order inflows. In the Transmission & Distribution segment, the company has secured orders in the Americas for the supply of towers, hardware, and poles, pointing to improving demand conditions in North and Latin American T&D markets. Additionally, SAE Towers, a subsidiary, has secured significant tower supply orders in Mexico, reflecting an uptick in T&D activity across North America. The cables and conductors business has won multiple supply orders across India and overseas markets, further supporting volume growth in manufacturing-led verticals.
K2 Infragen has secured a significant ₹262 crore project from Indian Railways, marking a major milestone as the company enters 2026. According to the company's announcement on January 1, 2026, it received a Letter of Acceptance for a large-scale traction power infrastructure project under the North Western Railway. The comprehensive order involves design, supply, erection, testing and commissioning of a 2×25 kV AC 220/132/55 kV traction substation, along with sectioning posts, sub-sectioning posts and SCADA systems for the Luni (inclusive) to Bhildi (exclusive) double-line section of the Jodhpur Division. The contract has been awarded to a joint venture between K2 Infragen and Salasar Techno Engineering, with K2 Infragen acting as the lead partner and holding a 74% stake in the JV.
KEC International's year-to-date order intake now stands at approximately ₹19,300 crore with these latest wins, demonstrating strong execution visibility across multiple verticals. Meanwhile, K2 Infragen's order book has crossed the ₹500 crore milestone, significantly bolstering the company's financial position. According to K2 Infragen's CFO Priyanka Pareek, this milestone is supported by revenue and profit growth, enabling the company to expect disciplined and accelerated expansion. Pankaj Sharma, Managing Director of K2 Infragen, described the railway order as a defining moment for the company as it steps into the execution of multiple ₹250 crore-plus projects simultaneously, reinforcing confidence among stakeholders and positioning the company for its next phase of growth.
Both companies are capitalizing on India's robust infrastructure development initiatives. K2 Infragen, founded in 2015, is a publicly listed EPC company operating across multiple states serving prominent clients including Indian Railways, NHAI, HSIIDC, Hindustan Copper, and leading infrastructure developers. The company is actively involved in infrastructure development across railways, power transmission, highways and water projects. KEC International, part of the RPG Group, continues to strengthen its position as a global infrastructure EPC major with diversified capabilities spanning renewables, transmission, and civil construction. Sustained investments in railway and transmission infrastructure across India continue to create strong opportunities for both companies' expansion in the infrastructure sector, with repeat orders and new market entries supporting their growth trajectories.
