OJSC Mosmetrostroy (Russian: Мосметрострой, abbr. of "Moscow Metro Construction [Department]") is a major Russian construction company,[3] which deals with solving engineering problems related to performance of a wide range of under and above-ground works.[citation needed] The company is the successor of the Metrostroy Department formed in 1931 to set a new branch of construction industry — metro and tunnel construction.[4] In eight decades Mosmetrostroy has constructed 180 metro stations in Moscow[5] along with implementing its projects throughout the post-Soviet space and abroad.[citation needed] At the present moment Mosmetrostroy acts as general contractor building metro stations in Moscow[6] and has won a contract to construct a segment of Mumbai Metro Rail's underground line.[7] via a joint venture with Hindustan Construction Company Ltd.

Earlier it had been awarded two contract packages to performing tunnelling and station construction in consortium with Gammon India Ltd. in Chennai, India.[8][9][10] 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 [11][12]
