AI summary

RITES signed an MoU with SAIL on Feb 2, 2026 to provide locomotive leasing and higher schedule maintenance for SAIL-owned diesel-electric locomotives across SAIL plants and mines. RITES will offer wet leasing with operation and maintenance support. The partnership formalises a two decade-long engagement and aims to improve efficiency, reliability and safety of SAIL's in-house railway systems.

Likely market impact

Non-binding MoU formalising existing cooperation. Mildly positive for RITES revenue visibility from SAIL, no immediate material financial impact.
