KEC
rnational Ltd., a leading infrastructure engineering firm, announced a major breakthrough today with a Rs 1,038 crore contract for the design, supply, and installation of a 380 kV Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) substation in Saudi Arabia. The news triggered a modest uptick in the company's stock price, reversing a two-day losing streak amid positive investor sentiment. In early trading on the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), KEC International's shares rose 0.49%, settling at Rs 854.70 by 09:20 hrs IST, marking a gain of Rs 4.15 from the previous close.

The order, described as the company's largest-ever substation project, underscores KEC's growing prowess in high-voltage infrastructure solutions. It comes at a time when global demand for reliable power networks is surging, driven by energy transitions and urbanization in the Gulf region.
