The government has awarded a ₹704.7 crore contract to a joint venture between Ceigall India and Sushee Infra & Mining to build an 82.4-km stretch of the Frontier Highway (NH-913) in Arunachal Pradesh. The Lada-Sarli section will take 48 months, or four years, to build.
What’s the deal: Ceigall will hold a 74% stake in the joint venture, with Sushee Infra holding the remaining 26%. The road will be built on an EPC basis, followed by five years of maintenance.
Why this road matters: the project will strengthen road connectivity in Arunachal Pradesh’s border region as part of the larger Frontier Highway network. It also adds to Ceigall’s growing highway portfolio in the state.
The government is increasingly prioritising border roads for connectivity and national security, with ₹1 trillion worth of highway projects in the pipeline as of July 2026.
Ceigall’s stock was up nearly 2.5% following the news.
