Ahluwalia Contracts (India) Ltd has won a ₹393 crore contract from the Airports Authority of India (AAI) to undertake construction work for a new greenfield airport in Bundi, Rajasthan. The project marks another addition to the company’s growing portfolio in the infrastructure sector.
The contract covers key building works for the upcoming airport, which will be developed from the ground up. Located in the Kota-Bundi region, the project is part of efforts to enhance air connectivity in Rajasthan, particularly in underserved areas. The company has stated that the execution timeline for the project is 18 months from the date of commencement.
A greenfield airport refers to a completely new development rather than an expansion of an existing facility. Once operational, the Bundi airport is expected to improve transportation access, support tourism, and facilitate business activity in the region. Improved connectivity is also likely to benefit nearby industrial and educational hubs, including Kota.
In its disclosure, Ahluwalia Contracts confirmed that the order is purely domestic and does not involve any related party transactions. The company also clarified that its promoters or group entities do not have any financial interest in AAI, ensuring transparency in the deal.
The latest win strengthens Ahluwalia Contracts’ position in the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) space. The company has a track record of executing large-scale institutional and infrastructure projects across India, including government-led developments.
This order comes amid a broader push by the Indian government to expand aviation infrastructure and improve regional connectivity under various development initiatives. Increasing the number of operational airports is seen as a key driver for economic growth, particularly in tier-2 and tier-3 cities.
With this contract, Ahluwalia Contracts is expected to further enhance its order book and revenue visibility. The project also reinforces the company’s credentials in delivering complex public infrastructure works, which could help it secure similar projects in the future.
