According to latest reports, the company's subsidiary 3i Infotech Software Solutions L.L.C. has secured an IT consulting services contract worth AED 17,651,620 (₹45.85 crore) from UAE-based Vedant Consultancy FZ LLC. The 12-month engagement runs from May 1, 2026, to April 30, 2027. Trading volumes surged over 337% above the five-day average, reflecting significant investor interest in the stock following the order announcement. The contract was disclosed under SEBI's Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements Regulations, with the filing confirming that the order does not fall within related party transactions and that promoter groups have no interest in the contracting entity.
As reported by Business Standard, the contract covers comprehensive IT consulting services in robotic process automation (RPA), artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and robotics. The scope includes consulting services and solutions based on UiPath RPA, Blue Prism, Pega Platform and Datamatics TruBot, along with process and factory automation technologies and systems. According to latest reports, this deal represents a high-margin pivot from volume-based infrastructure support to value-based AI/RPA consulting, helping transition the revenue base away from lower-margin legacy infrastructure support. The contract involves implementing platforms like UiPath and Blue Prism for Vedant Consultancy FZ LLC in the UAE, strengthening the company's position in the high-growth automation sector. The financial consideration of AED 17,651,620 is exclusive of applicable taxes, as confirmed in the SEBI disclosure filing.
According to Business Standard, the UAE contract follows significant recent wins including a ₹33.6 crore UAE tech services contract in June 2026 and a ₹37.05 crore domestic order from HPCL for managed infrastructure services. The company reported FY26 revenue of ₹693.3 crore with a 53% surge in EBITDA, despite overall revenue headwinds. The contract adds ₹45.85 crore to the FY27 order book, building on recently secured domestic and international contracts. The company's consolidated net profit declined 73% year-on-year to ₹7.27 crore in Q4 FY26, while revenue fell 6% to ₹175.78 crore.
Following the exit from the Saudi market in FY25, the UAE has become the primary hub for 3i Infotech's Middle Eastern growth, with recent wins totaling nearly ₹80 crore in the UAE demonstrating the region's importance to the company's ₹2,030 crore revenue target for 2030. As per latest reports, the GCC region is undergoing a massive digital overhaul, with UAE at the forefront of AI adoption in both public and private sectors. The company's ability to secure mandates in the UAE for AI and Robotics indicates that the market is beginning to trust the firm with complex digital transformation journeys, potentially improving sequential EBITDA margins and reflecting the resilience of niche Indian IT players in capturing specialized Middle Eastern budgets. The latest order reinforces 3i Infotech's presence in the fast-growing enterprise automation and artificial intelligence market, where organizations across industries are increasingly adopting AI-powered automation to streamline business processes and reduce operational costs.
