According to statements made by Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, the Ahmedabad-Mumbai bullet train will begin operations in 2026. "India's first bullet train will be ready in 2026, and will run in one section from Surat," added the minister. He stated that significant progress has been made in the construction of various stations and work has begun on the sea tunnel through which the train will reach Mumbai from Thane.
The Railway Minister had earlier shared a video of the Mumbai-Ahmedabad 'Bullet train' corridor which will cut the travel time on the 508 km route between the two cities to a mere 2 hours. The objective of the project is to develop a high-frequency mass transportation system by constructing the High-Speed Rail between Mumbai and Ahmedabad, using Japan's Shinkansen technology (also known as the Bullet Train), thereby enhancing mobility in India and contributing to regional economic development.
On December 21, 2023, the government signed a loan agreement with Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) to provide an Official Development Assistance loan of 400 billion Japanese Yen (approximately ₹22,627 crore) as the 5th tranche for the construction of the Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail project.
