Earlier it had been awarded two contract packages to performing tunnelling and station construction in consortium with Gammon India Ltd. in Chennai, India.[10][11][12] However it abandoned the Chennai Metro Rail project partway through after its requests for cost escalation were denied. The contract was terminated, and the subsequent court case allowed re-tendering of the remaining work to other vendors [13][14]
