Part of a Strong Growth Momentum

As of May 5, 2025, RailTel’s total order book stood at ₹6,616 crore, highlighting the company’s robust business pipeline.

Backed by Indian Railways, Focused on Digital India

As a Ministry of Railways-backed Navratna PSU, RailTel plays a vital role in expanding digital infrastructure for both central and state government entities. Its growing order book reflects strong demand for its ICT, telecom, and managed services in mission-critical areas like e-governance, defense communications, smart cities, and rural connectivity.
