Entire rolling stock of Delhi-Meerut HSR corridor to be manufactured in India

As reported by the National Capital Region Transport Corporation, the entire rolling stock for the Delhi-Meerut high speed rail corridor will be manufactured in India with almost 80 per cent local content. This initiative is being taken up under the Make in India programme. In May 2020, Bombardier Transport had won the Rs 25 billion bid to supply 40 train sets for the corridor. The rolling stock contractor will start delivering the coaches from April 2022. The rolling stock will be manufactured at its manufacturing unit in Savli near Vadodara.
