In a meeting with the head of the High Speed Rail Corporation of India in May 2014, Prime Minister Narendra Modi gave his approval for the project of the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet train.
 
The construction of the Mumbai to Ahmedabad Bullet train, which will link the two financial centres, is now progressing quickly, and it may be in service by August 2026.
 
The Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train initiative is currently under operation. Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw announced that the route would be operational in August 2026. It will be India’s first high-speed rail route when finished.
 
The high-speed railway system between Mumbai and Ahmedabad operates on Japanese Shinkansen technology to maximise passenger safety. The total cost of the project will be close to Rs 2 lakh crore.
 
The National High-Speed Rail Corporation Limited site states that the high-speed train will travel at 320 km/hr over a distance of 508 kilometres.
 
Travelling distance of the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train
 
The new bullet train project is planned to travel 15576 km across Maharashtra, 4.3 km through Dadra and Nagar Haveli, and 348.04 km through Gujarat. Approximately 508 kilometres will be covered by the new Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail (MAHSR) scheme, stopping at 12 stations along the way.
 
Stoppages in the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train
 
The train would stop in 12 cities along the route, including Anand, Vadodara, Bharuch, Surat, Bilimora, Vapi, Boisar, Virar, Thane, and Mumbai (Bandra Kurla Complex).
 
After the high-speed train departs, it will take just two hours and seven minutes to travel between the two financial centres.
 
Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train Services
 
Three different coach categories will be available on this bullet train: Standard, Business, and First. High-speed and rapid-high-speed services will be accessible. During peak hours, there will be a frequency of 20 minutes, and during non-peak hours, a frequency of 30 minutes, with 35 trains per day in one direction.
 
These will have features found on aeroplanes, like LED lights, overhead baggage shelving, seat leg rests, reading lights in Business and First Class, charging ports, refreshed restrooms, and accessibility for wheelchairs.
 
The proposed length of trains is between 10 and 17 carriages. The number of passengers that can ride each train will range from 1,300 to 1,600. While the system is intended to operate trains at a top speed of 350 km/h (220 mph), the actual operating speed is expected to be 320 km/h (200 mph).
 
By 2026, the project’s first phase will be operational.
