Sanjay Kumar, chairman and managing director of the company, said many other tenders are also coming. "LTE tender, which was floated sometime back, for now, has been put on hold by the government of India, Ministry of Railways, maybe because they are giving priority to KAVACH tenders finalization first. But Navratna, per se, since we were not eligible earlier, we were not looking for such tenders, but certainly now we will be focusing on such tenders also in the future," he said.
