What Jupiter Wagons does

Manufactures railway wagons and wagon components, supplying Indian Railways and private freight operators.

Wins wagon orders through tenders from Indian Railways and from private companies that own wagons for steel, cement and fuel freight, and delivers against a schedule, so earnings are lumpy around order timing. Besides assembly, it makes the castings and brake gear that go into the wagons.
