L&T has won a 'Significant' order (worth between ₹1,000 crore and ₹2,500 crore as per its own classification) from the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India, to build the LIGO India Observatory at Aundha in Hingoli district, Maharashtra. The order will be jointly executed by L&T's Heavy Civil Infrastructure and Heavy Engineering business verticals. The scope includes engineering, procurement and construction of vibration-sensitive specialised civil infrastructure, plus manufacture and installation of an 8 km ultra-high vacuum beam tube and related critical equipment, with full integration of mechanical, electrical, HVAC, fire protection and monitoring systems. The project is to be completed within 48 months. LIGO India is being developed as a flagship Mega Science project in collaboration with Indian institutes (RRCAT, IPR) and the US LIGO Lab, supported by Caltech and MIT.
This is a prestigious government-backed scientific infrastructure win that reinforces L&T's credentials in complex, high-precision engineering, but the order size (₹1,000–2,500 Cr) is modest relative to L&T's ~₹2.5 lakh Cr+ revenue base and unlikely to move the stock materially on its own.
