Overview of the Sector:
India has the fourth largest railway network in the world with a total network of 67,368 route kilometer (rkm). Railways in India runs nearly 21,000 trains daily; i.e. approximately 13,313 passenger trains that carry more than 2.3 crore passengers and approximately 8,000 freight trains that carry around 3 million tonnes of freight per day.
In 2016, Indian Railways has announced an Rs 856,020 crore CapEx plan for 2016-20 (five years), 90% more than the combined capital outlay in the previous 15 years. The railway transport infrastructure services industry is expected to witness project commissioning worth Rs 87,590 crore during 2017-19. Out of this, projects entailing an investment of ₹44,100 crore are expected to come on-stream in 2017-18. The remaining projects worth ₹43,490 crore are likely to be commissioned in 2018-19.
National Rail Plan 2030:
The Ministry of Railways (MoR) aims to develop National Rail Plan, 2030 to provide a long term outlook to plan for augmenting the railway network, in deliberation with several state governments, public representatives and other important Central Ministries. NRP-2030 will strive to adapt and integrate the rail network with other modes of transport and create synergy for achieving a seamless multimodal transportation network across India.
Major Segments:
-
Construction of new lines:
Construction of new lines is authorized for providing connectivity to the regions not adequately connected with the Railway network. To bring those regions under the National main-stream of development new sanctions are awarded to companies like Rail Vikas Nigam for execution. Indian Railways envisages constructing an average of 2,500 Kms. of New lines every year according to the Railway vision 2020.
-
Gauge Construction:
Indian Railways employ three types of gauges:
- Broad Gauge: 1,676mm (5 feet 6 inches)
- Meter Gauge 1,000 mm ( 3feet 3/8 inches)
- Narrow Gauge: 762 mm (2 feet, 6 inches) and 610 mm (2 feet)
To enhance passengers’ accommodation and commercial viability of Indian Railways, the government has taken a decision to convert the existing Meter Gauge and Narrow Gauge into Broad Gauge phase-wise.
In consonance with the uni-gauge policy of 1991, the conversion of the remaining portion of the MG section will provide a stout investment opportunity in this segment.
-
Doubling
The operation of doubling involves the provision of additional lines by way of doubling the existing routes to permit the Railways to expedite traffic constraints of a single line or construction and raise the chartered capacity. In some sections, 3rd and 4th lines are also being laid by MOR. According to Vision Document 2020, there is an increased focus on achieving at least 1,200 km of doubling.
In addition to the doubling works being executed by Zonal Railways, RVNL is a significant contributor to the doubling projects and has been contributing to approximately one-third of the total doubling being commissioned on Indian Railways in last 3 fiscals. The other companies assigned with doubling projects by Indian Railways constitute IRCON Ltd and RITES Ltd.
-
Electrification
Indian Railways has taken measures in order to control the spiraling fuel bill, reduce dependence on imported fossil oil, increase the energy security of the nation, reduce pollution, improve operational efficiency and operating ratio, it is crucial that electrification is conceded priority on Railways.
-
Safety
The Safety segment is extremely sensitive in terms of both social as well as economic perspectives. It needs paramount attention as it involves the lives of the travelling public. Considering the magnitude of the safety measures, the Government has invested Rs.127, 000 in the 5 years i.e. from 2015 and aims to invest further in 2019-20 to track renewal, bridge works, the road over bridge (ROB), the road under the bridge (RUB) and Signalling & Telecommunication (S&T).
RVNL has contributed more than 33% of the doubling projects and more than 22% of electrification projects in last 5 fiscals for Indian Railways.

New Line (includes port connectivity) | 976.76 | 30763.52 |
Doubling | 3,652.93 | 27,721.04 |

Others (bridge construction etc.) (in numbers) | 15 | 1626.63 |
TOTAL | 8,944.24 | 77,504.280 |
Key Risks:
-
Highly reliable on the Ministry of Railways (MOR)
The company is highly reliable on the Ministry of Railways (MOR) for funds and manpower supply which in turn might lead to delay in execution of projects. RVNL largely depends on the MoR for funds since they assign a fixed budget for the company each year for undertaking the projects. In FY18, the total capital and development expenditure of railways has been pegged at Rs 148,528 crore
-
Third-party dependency:
RVNL highly depends on the contractors, sub-contractors, and consultants that are engaged in adhering to the quality and conditions. Any casualties from the contractors, sub-contractors, and consultants will lead to an increase in the cost of projects, delay in the projects and can hamper the quality.
-
Delay in Project Execution:
The total order book value of the company as on December 31, 2018, is Rs. 775,042.80 million. Out of the 77,500 crores, two projects i.e. Rishikesh Karnprayag new line project and Bhanupalli- Bilaspur Beri new line project constitute Rs. 15,001.770 crores and Rs. 6,413.510 crores, respectively. That aggregates to 27.63% of the company’s overall order book. Any delay on account of land acquisitions, forest, and environmental clearance issues, etc. or delay in timely and adequate financing of these projects by MoR, could adversely affect the company’s order book position, business, financial condition and results of operation.
-
Long contract gestation period:
As on December 31, 2018, order book of the company stood at Rs. 77,504.280 crores of which 96.11%, was from MoR. Further, the order book may be affected due to the delays in performance of the contracts by the contractors assigned by RVNL as well as the long gestation period in the completion of projects. Therefore, this might hinder the revenue and the performance of the company.
- The company had negative cash flow from operating and financial activities in last 4 fiscals.
- As on December 2018, the company has an outstanding unsecured loan of Rs. 2,842.630 crores from IRFC. failing to pay can affect the profitability
- There has been negative cash flow from one of the SPV Dighi Roha Rail Company FY16: -0.773 crores, FY17 – 0.073 crores, FY18: – 0.042 crores, H1FY19: 0.015 crores
- The company’s cash flows can be affected as the business is seasonal in nature i.e. Monsoon affects their cash flow.
