BEML and TuTr Hyperloop Join Forces to Build Indigenous Hyperloop System in India

Date:

New Delhi. Ushering in a new chapter in next-generation mobility, BEML Limited, a leading Indian engineering and manufacturing company under the Ministry of Defence, has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with TuTr Hyperloop, a deep-tech startup incubated at IIT Madras, to co-develop India’s first indigenously designed Hyperloop transportation system.

The MoU was formally signed by Shri Lingaraj V. Viraktamath, Head – Corporate Technology Planning & Alliance Management and Dr. Aravind S. Bharadwaj, Director & CEO – TuTr Hyperloop, in the presence of Shri Shantanu Roy, Chairman and Managing Director, BEML, and Prof. V. Kamakoti, Director, IIT Madras, Shri Rajeev Kumar Gupta, Director – Rail & Metro, BEML Ltd., along with senior officials from BEML, IIT Madras, and TuTr Hyperloop at the IIT Madras campus.

As part of this pioneering partnership, BEML will serve as the principal manufacturing partner for TuTr Hyperloop’s future-ready mobility solutions. The collaboration will focus on developing a prototype Hyperloop pod designed to carry both passengers and cargo at ultra-high speeds, leveraging advanced propulsion technologies such as Linear Induction Motors (LIM) and Maglev systems. The goal is to create a radically faster, greener, and more efficient mode of transport.

“This partnership is a leap forward for India’s aspirations in high-speed, clean transportation,” said Shri Shantanu Roy, CMD, BEML. “It exemplifies our commitment to Viksit Bharat 2047 and Atmanirbhar Bharat by turning futuristic mobility into a reality powered by Indian engineering, innovation, and manufacturing.”

Prof. V. Kamakoti, Director, IIT Madras, added, “This collaboration is a powerful example of how academia and industry can come together to drive meaningful innovation. At TuTr, we’re translating deep scientific research into practical technologies that can transform the way people and goods move. Partnering with BEML allows us to bring those innovations to life at scale—with world-class precision.”

The alliance brings together TuTr’s visionary engineering and cutting-edge R&D capabilities with BEML’s robust manufacturing ecosystem and decades of expertise in delivering complex, large-scale infrastructure solutions across defence, aerospace, and rail sectors.

Hyperloop is a high-speed transportation system where passenger or cargo pods travel through sealed tubes in a near-vacuum environment, allowing them to glide at exceptional speeds using Magnetic Levitation and Linear Induction Motor propulsion systems. This breakthrough promises to revolutionize mobility with sustainable, scalable, and future-ready transport solutions.
