Bajel Projects Wins ₹200-300 Crore Mumbai GIS Order

Bajel Projects Limited has secured a major engineering, procurement and construction contract for 220kV gas-insulated switchgear substations in Mumbai. The order, announced on 9 October 2026, has been awarded by The Tata Power Company Limited. Bajel Projects has classified the contract as a major order under its internal project-classification policy. The order value, inclusive of Goods and Services Tax, is between ₹200 crore and ₹300 crore. The work covers facilities at the Salsette and Powai receiving stations. The stated execution period is 18 months from the issuance of the purchase order.

Tata Power Awards Domestic EPC Contract

The contract is a domestic EPC order for substation works in Mumbai. Tata Power is the entity awarding the order, according to the disclosed contract details. Bajel Projects will be responsible for supplying and installing the specified GIS equipment under the two packages. The announcement did not disclose the individual value assigned to each package. It also did not specify the date on which the purchase order would be issued. As a result, the 18-month execution clock is linked to that purchase-order date rather than the announcement date.

Order Value Falls in Major Category

Bajel Projects uses an internal classification policy to categorise projects by value. Under that policy, orders valued from ₹200 crore to ₹300 crore are classified as major orders. The disclosed value band includes GST. The company has therefore not stated one fixed contract value within the ₹200 crore to ₹300 crore range. The classification places the Mumbai substation contract among the company’s larger disclosed project categories. It also provides investors with a defined range for assessing the size of the order.

Salsette Package Covers 220kV GIS

Package A involves the supply and installation of a 220kV GIS at the Salsette receiving station. Gas-insulated switchgear is electrical equipment used in high-voltage power systems. The disclosed scope identifies both supply and installation as part of Bajel Projects’ responsibilities. No separate equipment quantities, technical specifications, or package value were provided in the announcement. The receiving-station location is Salsette in Mumbai. The project is part of the wider two-package EPC contract awarded by Tata Power.

Powai Work Includes Outdoor GIS Substation

Package B covers the supply and installation of a 220kV outdoor GIS substation at the Powai receiving station. This package is distinct from the Salsette scope, although both form part of the same Mumbai order. Bajel Projects has described the Powai work as an outdoor GIS substation. The company did not disclose a separate completion schedule for Powai. It also did not provide the contract value attributable to this package. Both packages are to be executed under the overall 18-month timeframe from the purchase order.

Key Contract Details

Why the GIS Order Matters

The order adds a Mumbai-based transmission infrastructure assignment to Bajel Projects’ disclosed project activity. Its value range of ₹200 crore to ₹300 crore makes it material under the company’s own classification framework. The contract is specifically for high-voltage 220kV substation infrastructure rather than a broader, unspecified power project. The two-location scope requires work at both Salsette and Powai receiving stations. Because the contract is structured on an EPC basis, Bajel Projects’ disclosed role includes both procurement-related supply and installation. The company has not disclosed further financial terms, margins, or payment conditions.

Context From Recent Project Awards

Bajel Projects operates in power transmission infrastructure and executes EPC assignments. In May 2026, the company disclosed a major order for a 765kV air-insulated switchgear substation package in Maharashtra. The Mumbai contract relates instead to 220kV GIS substations and has separate packages for Salsette and Powai. The latest award indicates continued project activity in substation infrastructure during 2026. However, the available disclosure does not provide a comparison of the Mumbai order with the value or execution status of earlier projects. It also does not state the impact of this order on the company’s total order book.

Information Still Awaited

The announcement sets out the value band, scope, awarding entity, and execution period for the project. It does not disclose the precise contract value, package-wise consideration, or expected financial impact. The date of purchase-order issuance has also not been provided. Those details would determine the formal start of the stated 18-month execution period. For now, the confirmed position is that Bajel Projects will supply and install 220kV GIS infrastructure at the two Mumbai receiving stations. Further company disclosures may provide updates on execution or other contractual milestones.
