The £150m ($201m) private investment in the dual-power locomotives is part of a railway decarbonisation effort.
The agreement is to develop a telecom infrastructure within Bangalore's Namma Metro network that is equipped for both 4G and 5G services.
The investment combines two non-sovereign loans from Agence Française de Développement, totalling $133m and a $35m grant from the EU.
The scope of work will address the need for additional track capacity, decarbonisation efforts, increased speeds, and more frequent services.
The framework will allow Hitachi Rail to deploy modern digital solutions that enhance operational efficiency on the Supertram system.
The announcement comes after the second option was exercised with Kawasaki Rail Car to modernise NYCT's fleet.
