Indian Railways
Client: Indian Railways Finance Corporation
ADB Assistance: $750m loan equivalent in Indian rupees
Key Features:
•
The Government of India has placed significant emphasis on investing in
infrastructure and has developed a 5-year, $132 billion capital expenditure
program for the modernization of Indian Railways, which it owns through the
Ministry of Railways, and is the third largest railway network in the world. Part
of the overall master plan is the electrification of railway tracks which is
critical for the movement of goods and people within the country. Electric
traction is more advantageous than diesel-powered trains since it is
inexpensive to operate, uses renewable energy and recovers energy from
braking or slowing down of the train.
The project involves electrification of approximately 3,378 route km of
existing railway tracks spread across 13 states in India.
ADB's Value Addition:
•
•
ADB's 20-year amortizing local currency loan will allow Indian Railways to match
the cash flows from the assets to loan repayment with no foreign exchange risk.
ADB's participation will help attract private sector insurance companies by way
of unfunded risk transfers, which is an important and new source of
mobilization.
ADB will also provide technical assistance to Indian Railways which will help
build capacity on environmental and social safeguards systems required for
implementing the railway electrification subprojects.
