In the last 1-2 years, Dilip Buildcon has expanded its footprint through joint ventures securing large contracts for significant infrastructure projects.

The DBL-PSP joint venture secured an EPC contract worth Rs 1,115.37 crore for the Kerala Industrial Corridor Development, part of the Chennai-Bengaluru Industrial Corridor extension, scheduled for completion within 42 months. Additionally, Dilip Buildcon's joint venture DBL-APMPL, holding 74 percent stake, obtained a letter of acceptance for a 100 MW grid-connected ground-mounted solar photovoltaic power project in Madhya Pradesh to supply power for 25 years. The company also emerged as the lowest bidder for a Rs 5,000 crore mining development operations (MDO) contract floated by National Aluminium Company Limited (NALCO).
These recent contracts and strategic moves reflect Dilip Buildcon’s focus on diversifying its portfolio into water infrastructure, renewable energy, and mining sectors alongside its core roads and highways business.
