Critical Infrastructure Mandates in Uttar Pradesh

Afcons Infrastructure has strengthened its footprint in the transportation and urban infrastructure segment with two high-value contracts from state-led agencies. The Uttar Pradesh Expressways Industrial Development Authority (UPEIDA) has commissioned the Jewar Link Expressway, a 24.5-km greenfield project designed to connect the upcoming Noida International Airport with the Yamuna and Ganga Expressway corridors. Simultaneously, the Uttar Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation (UPMRC) has issued a notice of award for the design and construction of a 6.52-km underground stretch under Lucknow Metro Phase-1B.

These projects are expected to enhance regional mobility and support economic growth across western and central Uttar Pradesh.

Strategic Scope of the New EPC Orders

  • Jewar Link Expressway: A six-lane access-controlled corridor expandable to eight lanes valued at ₹2,086 crore excluding GST
  • Lucknow Metro Phase-1B: Underground stretch involving seven stations and connectivity between elevated and underground sections
  • Metro project scope includes civil works, utility systems, and fire safety infrastructure valued at ₹1,383 crore
  • Total fresh order inflows for the current financial year now stand at ₹19,438 crore
  • The expressway project aims to reduce travel times and improve logistics efficiency for airport accessibility

Expanding Order Book and Market Context

The latest wins follow a series of significant order arrivals for Afcons in 2026, including a ₹5,301 crore breakwater project for Vadhvan Port in June and a ₹1,918 crore desalination water tunnel project for the BMC in August. Despite a challenging year for the stock price, which has declined 52.76% over the last 12 months, the company continues to execute its aggressive growth strategy. Management had previously guided for FY27 order inflows of ₹30,000 crore, and with the current total at ₹19,438 crore by late October, the company is on track to meet approximately two-thirds of its annual target.

The bidding pipeline for the firm remained robust at roughly ₹1.5 lakh crore as of August 2026.
