Oriental Rail Infrastructure Limited has reached a significant strategic milestone as its wholly-owned subsidiary, Oriental Foundry Private Limited, received formal approval from the Railway Board to operate as a Wagon Leasing Company (WLC). Following the application submitted in early December 2025, this registration allows the subsidiary to lease railway wagons for operations across the Indian Railways network under the Wagon Leasing Scheme (WLS). The move enables the company to expand its service offerings beyond manufacturing, integrating deeper into the rail Logistics and freight mobility ecosystem.
This new registration is expected to provide Oriental Rail with enhanced long-term business visibility and diversified revenue streams through leasing and maintenance services. By securing a foothold in the wagon leasing segment, the company aims to leverage operational synergies and capitalise on the growing demand for private freight capacity. This expansion aligns with the firm’s broader roadmap to drive sustainable growth and establish a more robust presence within the industrial value chain of the Indian rail sector.
