Build the future of Indian rail. Faster.
Viksit Bharat 2047 calls for a new rail delivery model—one that connects planning, design, construction, and operations through a single digital foundation. Bentley helps rail leaders reduce risk, accelerate delivery, and futureproof infrastructure at scale.
Explore the strategy in our complimentary e-book and see how digital transformation is reshaping India’s rail future. Fill out the form to access it now.
Go digital. Go faster. The future of Indian Rail is now.
India’s railway expansion is a historic undertaking. But delivering on the ambitious goals of the National Rail Plan means leaving behind the constraints of traditional, siloed workflows. Disconnected data, constant delays, and budget overruns are no longer acceptable.
To build the high-speed, fully electrified, and interconnected network of tomorrow, you need a digital-first approach. Bentley provides the unified platform to eliminate guesswork, align stakeholders, and ensure project certainty from concept through to operations.

See how leaders in rail are building the future with Bentley
From the Delhi Metro to the UK’s high-speed lines, rail authorities and their partners trust Bentley to deliver complex projects. Explore their stories:
Larsen & Toubro
Faced with tight schedules on India’s rising number of urban rail projects, Larsen & Toubro digitized their manual workflows using Bentley’s OpenRail. The impact was immediate: detailed drawing revision times were slashed from 15 days to just two days, and resource requirements were cut by 75%.
RITES Limited
To design a new rail link through hilly, environmentally sensitive terrain, RITES Limited used Bentley’s integrated software to model the corridor and analyze the earthworks. This digital approach optimized the alignment and led to a massive INR 1.53 billion reduction in the original project cost while protecting the environment.
SPL Powerlines UK
On a massive 447 kilometre rail project, SPL Powerlines unified over 20 design firms with Bentley’s digital platform. The result? A 50% improvement in data quality in just four weeks, dramatically reducing rework and delays.
The time for a new approach is now.
The future of Indian rail won’t wait, and neither should you. Take the definitive step toward ensuring your projects are delivered faster, more sustainably, and on budget.
