August 4, 2017


Revamping of Railway Stations by Private Sector

Indian Railways has advertized its plan to offer ‘A-1’ and ‘A’ category stations on ‘as is where is’ basis for redevelopment by inviting proposals from developers with their designs and business ideas. Railway has already invited Bid for 26 Railway Stations.

Zonal Railways, in the first phase of station redevelopment program which was launched on 08.02.2017, have already invited bids for 23 stations. The State-wise details of these stations are as under:-

S. No. Name of Station State S. No. Name of station State
1 Lokmanya Tilak (T) Maharashtra 13 Faridabad Haryana
2 Pune Maharashtra 14 Jammu Tawi Jammu & Kashmir
3 Thane Maharashtra 15 Secunderabad Andhra Pradesh
4 Mumbai Central Maharashtra 16 Vijayawada Andhra Pradesh
5 Bandra Terminus Maharashtra 17 Ranchi Jharkhand
6 Borivali Maharashtra 18 Chennai Central Tamilnadu
7 Howrah West Bengal 19 Kozhikode Kerala
8 Visakhapatnam Andhra Pradesh 20 Yashwantpur Karnataka
9 Kanpur Central Uttar Pradesh 21 Bangalore Cantt Karnataka
10 Allahabad Uttar Pradesh 22 Indore Madhya Pradesh
11 Kamakhya Assam 23 Bhopal Madhya Pradesh
12 Udaipur City Rajasthan

In the first phase of 23 stations, bids for Jammu Tawi and Kozhikode Railway Stations have been opened on 12.07.2017 and 24.07.2017 respectively.

Further, a dedicated organization viz. Indian Railway Stations Development Corporation Limited (IRSDC) has been set up to undertake redevelopment of stations to international standards. 12 stations viz. Amritsar (Punjab), Anand Vihar (Delhi), Bijwasan (Delhi), Baiyappanahalli (Karnataka), Chandigarh (Punjab), Gandhinagar (Gujarat), Gandhinagar (Rajasthan), Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh), Habibganj (Madhya Pradesh), Nagpur (Maharashtra), Surat (Gujarat) and Shivajinagar (Maharashtra) have been entrusted to IRSDC for redevelopment.

The work of Habibganj Railway Station has been started. A contract of civil engineering works for redevelopment of Gandhinagar Railway Station along with construction of a 300-room hotel on the air space of the station has also been awarded and ground-breaking done. The work is in progress. Bids for Surat Railway Station have been opened on 05.06.2017.

These projects are new to Railways and complex in nature. These require detailed techno-economic feasibility studies, hence no time frame has been presently set for completion of these projects.

The cost of station redevelopment is to be met by leveraging commercial development of vacant land/air space in and around the stations. Therefore, railway funds are not required for station redevelopment projects. Such projects shall generally be cost neutral to Railway.

This Press Release is based on the information given by the Minister of State for Railways Shri Rajen Gohain in a written reply to a question in Rajya Sabha on 04.08.2017 (Friday).
