Hyderabad-based Gayatri Projects today informed the stock exchanges about the award of Rs 4,744 crore contract for designing and building Iqbalgarh-Vadodara section of the Western Dedicated Freight Corridor project to the Sojitz-led consortium in which it is a partner.

Last month, Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India awarded the contract to the consortium comprising Sojitz Corporation, L&T and Gayatri Projects.

Gayatri is expected to have a Rs 450-500 crore worth of EPC work share in this contract. It will be handling the earth work and concreting, according to a company official.
