}}The Diesel Locomotive Factory, Marhowra is a joint venture of GE Global Sourcing India Pvt. Limited of the US with Indian Railways for the production of 1000 high-power freight locomotives over a period of 10 years designed to run on Indian railway tracks.[1] The factory is currently under-construction.[2] This factory will start manufacturing the locomotives from the third quarter of 2018.[3]

The first 40 locomotives will be imported, the rest will be manufactured in Marhowra.[4] The company is also setting-up two maintenance depots at Gandhidham in Gujarat and Roza in Uttar Pradesh.[5]

Overview

During Sep 2013, the Ministry of Railways had received bids from six global firms: Siemens, Alstom, Bombardier, General Electric, CSR Corp and CNR Corp.[6] However, Indian Railways rejected the bid of both Chinese firms (CSR and CNR) for the two giant manufacturing projects in Bihar.[7]

In January 2014, the Union Cabinet gave its approval for setting up Electric Locomotive Factory in Madhepura and Diesel Locomotive Factory (DLF) in Marhowra at an approximate cost of {{INRConvert|1293.57|c}} and {{INRConvert|2052.58|c}} respectively.[8]

On November 9, 2015, the Ministry of Railways awarded the contracts for Madhepura project and Marhaura project to Alstom and General Electric respectively in a collective amount of US $6 billion. This multi crore rupees deal was seen as the country's first FDI in the railway sector.[1]

General Electric’s first diesel locomotive arrived in India on October 11, 2017 from the US.[9][5]

As a joint venture company, both Indian Railways and General Electric are set to invest collectively a huge amount of US $2.5 billion for DLF. Indian Railways will hold 26% equity in JV company subject to a maximum of {{INRConvert|100|c}}.[1] The estimated cost of 1000 locomotives will be around {{INRConvert|14656|c}}. General Electric will maintain the locomotives for 13 years, after which the Indian Railways will take over maintenance.[10]
