According to reports from Business Standard, 3i Infotech has received a purchase order dated 10 September 2026, from a leading commodity exchange in India for additional resources to support its Disaster Recovery operations. The order has been issued under PO No. NCDEX/2026-2027/EQ/062 and covers a 3-year period from FY 2026-27 to FY 2028-29. As per the latest filing, this contract is classified as a significant order with exclusive tax treatment.
As reported by Business Standard, the contract encompasses comprehensive 24x7 Disaster Recovery operations and datacentre management support. The service scope includes monitoring of the datacentre environment, backup and restoration, server, storage and network monitoring, incident and ticket management, asset and inventory management, vendor coordination and related operational support. The latest reports confirm that the contract includes monitoring, backup, and incident management services as part of the comprehensive disaster recovery framework.
According to Business Standard, the purchase order aggregates to ₹1.02 crore, exclusive of applicable taxes. At ₹1.02 crore, this single order accounts for roughly 0.53% of the company's average quarterly revenue of ₹193.95 crore. The contract represents a significant revenue opportunity for 3i Infotech over the three-year term, providing steady income from the commodity exchange sector. The company's total disclosed order book now stands at ₹320.64 crore across 21 orders over the last three fiscal quarters, representing a coverage of 1.65 quarters of average quarterly revenue.
As reported by Business Standard, 3i Infotech demonstrated strong operational performance in Q2FY27 with total order inflow of ₹149.92 crore, reflecting steady demand across banking, energy, and financial infrastructure sectors. The company reported revenue of ₹184.30 crore and net profit of ₹6.50 crore in Q1FY27, with an operating profit margin (OPM) of 2.85%. This marks a significant improvement from Q4FY26, where OPM was negative at -5.48%, and Q3FY26, where it stood at -1.76%. The reversal to positive operating profits suggests that recent cost controls or higher-margin service mix adjustments are beginning to take effect.
The latest order win demonstrates 3i Infotech's continued strength in the disaster recovery and datacentre management segment, with the company maintaining steady order inflows above ₹140 crore per quarter in recent periods. However, the book-to-bill ratio of 0.41x indicates that the company is currently operating with a lean backlog relative to its annual run-rate of ₹775.8 crore. The diversity of awarding entities remains strong, spanning banking, energy, consumer durables, and international clients, supporting the company's diversified revenue base across multiple sectors.
