The company is eyeing a major chunk of works related to terminal building constructions, airside and landside works.
Confirming this, L&T CFO Y M Deosthalee said, "As far as airport modernisation is concerned, we will be looking for sub-contract works for Mumbai and Delhi (from the consortia that won the airport projects)."
L&T sources said the company is already negotiating with these consortia for subcontract works. "The works include terminal building construction, runway, aprons and taxi ways. The company is already doing this work at Hyderabad, where GMR is the main contractor," a source said.
GMR group has also won the contract for Delhi airport project. L &T had bagged sub-contract works worth Rs 758 crore (Rs 7.58 billion) from GMR Infrastructure Ltd, which is constructing the new international airport in Hyderabad.
The company has the expertise and it had made a bid for the Delhi and Mumbai airport projects. But, it could not pursue as the foreign partner (Hochtief) withdrew from the project, the source said.
