RITES Secures $3.6M Locomotive Order from Zimbabwe
RITES, an engineering company, got a big order from a company in Zimbabwe.
They have to give them some special train engines for $3.6 million.
This deal is not with any of RITES' friends or family companies, so it's a fair deal.
Also, RITES recently made a deal with Botswana to help them make their trains and roads better.
Their stock price went down a little today.
RITES Ltd received a $3.6-million order for locomotives from Zimbabwe's Berhard Development Corporation.
The contract is to be executed over three months and is an arm’s length transaction.
RITES recently signed an MoU with Botswana to modernize its railway and transport infrastructure.
The partnership aims to enhance Botswana's transport sector through advanced technologies and capacity-building.
RITES' stock price ended at ₹237, down 3.27%, on December 30, 2025.
