India does not have any railways that can be classified as high-speed rail (HSR) by international standards, i.e. railways with operational speeds exceeding 200 km/h (120 mph).The current fastest train in India is the Vande Bharat Express (Train 18) with an operational speed of 160 km/h (99 mph) and average speed of 100 km/h (62 mph), which runs between New Delhi and Varanasi.

Prior to the 2014 general election, both the national opposition party (Bharatiya Janata Party(BJP)) and the ruling party (Indian National Congress(INC)) pledged to introduce high-speed rail. The INC pledged to connect all of India's million-plus cities by high-speed rail, whereas the BJP, which won the election, promised to build the Diamond Quadrilateral project, which would connect the cities of Chennai, Delhi, Kolkata, and Mumbai via high-speed rail. This project was approved as a priority for the new government in the incoming president's speech.Construction of one kilometer of high speed railway track will cost ₹100 crore (US$14 million) - ₹140 crore (US$20 million) which is 10-14 times higher than the cost of construction of standard railway.

India's Union Council of Ministers approved the proposal of Japan to build India's first high-speed railway on 10 December 2015.The planned rail will run approximately 500 km (310 mi) between Mumbai and the western city of Ahmedabad at a top speed of 320 km/h (200 mph).Under this proposal, the construction began in 2017 and is expected to be completed in the year 2022.The estimated cost of this project is ₹980 billion (US$14 billion) and is financed by Japan as a soft loan . Operation is officially targeted to begin in 2023, but India has announced intentions to attempt to bring the line into operation one year earlier.It will transport the passengers from Ahmedabad to Mumbai in just 3 hours and its ticket fare will be cheaper than air planes i.e. ₹2500-₹3000.

India will have two types of gauges for high speed rail. The new HSR tracks with Japanese technology will be in standard gauge, whereas older tracks upgraded to the HSR standard will be in broad gauge. Therefore there will be no interchangeability between newly laid tracks and the older-upgraded tracks for passenger and cargo traffic.
