The company on the contrary did not specify the value of the contract, though as per the specification of the contract, the value would be around Rs 2,500 crore and Rs 5,000 crore.

The company also reiterated that the heavy civil infrastructure business of L & T Construction had secured an order from the Government of Telangana, under the Irrigation and Command Area Development Department (I&CAD). The said department is scheduled to undertake the Sita Ram Lift Irrigation scheme to irrigate a command area of about 9.36 lakhs acres in the renowned districts of Khammam, Mahububabad, and Kothagudem. 

The project is said to involve the construction of a 1,263-meter long barrage and 65 radial gates with the rope drum hoist arrangements and all related mechanical works.
