Jupiter Tatravagonka Secures X255 Crore Order from Braithwaite & Co., Boosting Annual Production to 1,00,000 Wheel-sets

Jupiter Tatravognka Railwheel Factory Pvt. Ltd, the specialized wheelset manufacturing arm of Jupiter Wagons Limited, has been awarded a contract worth X255 crore from Braithwaite & Co. for the supply of 9,140 wheelsets of 840 mm diameter for 25-ton axle load applications. This order strengthens Jupiter’s position as a leading domestic manufacturer of high-performance railway wheelsets, contributing to India's growing need for self-reliant and advanced mobility solutions. The company's total order book now stands at X560 crore, reflecting the company’s growing influence in the railway infrastructure sector. Jupiter is targeting X600 crore in revenue from its wheel business in FY26, nearly doubling its current contribution. This growth will be driven by increased production capacity, strong order inflows, and enhanced domestic manufacturing capabilities. The company is setting up a world-class production facility in Odisha, which will increase its capacity from the current 20,000 forged wheels and axles annually to an impressive 1,00,000 forged wheelsets per year. The expansion is backed by a 2,500 crore investment, aligning with India's vision to bolster domestic manufacturing and reduce reliance on imports.
