    NEW DELHI: Indian
    Railways' decision of
    procuring 90,000 wagons
    during over three years
    through 2024-25 comes as a
    major fillip for the wagon
    manufacturers as it will lead
    to higher capacity utilisation
    for them, reversing the
    trend of past couple of years amid low orders from the railways.
    "Out of 90,000 orders, more than 70,000 orders are already allocated to
    Engineering and Industries Limited (HEIL),
    players such as
    Titagarh Wagons, Texmaco Rail & Engineering Limited, and Jupiter
    Wagons Limited in first quarter of 2022-23," India Ratings said in a
    report.
    This procurement of wagons is aimed at meeting the railways' target to
    increase its share in freight usage to 45 per cent from 27 per cent in
    2018-19 under National Rail Plan 2030 and help the government in
    achieving carbon neutrality by 2070.
