BHEL and Titagarh Rail Systems have established a 50:50 joint venture for the maintenance of 80 Vande Bharat Sleeper Trainsets over 35 years. This agreement, signed on 15 Sep 2026, marks BHEL's strategic shift into high-margin lifecycle-support services following its recent profitability turnaround in Q1 FY27.

The partnership enhances operational roles for both companies, solidifying their positions in the railway maintenance sector. This move may boost investor sentiment towards BHEL as it diversifies its revenue streams.
