H.G. Infra Engineering gained more than 10% after securing a ₹401 crore order from Anuppur Thermal Energy (MP) for railway infrastructure works at its thermal power plant in Anuppur, Madhya Pradesh.
In simple terms, they will build railway tracks, bridges, and loading facilities so coal trains can directly reach the thermal power plant and keep it supplied with fuel.
About the order: the project involves civil construction and railway track (P-way) works, including earthwork, bridges, and station buildings needed to support logistics for the power plant.
The 2×800 MW Anuppur thermal power plant will generate 1,600 MW of electricity, which is a meaningful addition to the state’s power capacity.
Why it matters: the railway infrastructure being built by H.G. Infra is also crucial. Thermal plants run on large volumes of coal, and rail is the most efficient way to transport it.
By building dedicated rail connectivity, bridges, and station facilities, the project ensures faster and cheaper coal supply to the plant, which improves plant efficiency and reduces logistics bottlenecks.
