CMS Info Systems Limited has acquired the ATM Managed Services business of Financial Software and Systems Private Limited, with a purchase consideration of up to Rs 1,150 mn. The transaction involves the transfer of operating assets and novation of customer contracts and is expected to close in Q1 FY27. The deal adds approximately eight thousand managed units and brings new private sector banking relationships to CMS's platform.

Company executives said the acquisition is consistent with the group's 2030 goals and reflects a programmematic approach to consolidation in the managed services industry. CMS's ATM Management Solutions business generated Rs 13,000 mn in FY25 services revenue and carries an 11 per cent compound annual growth rate outlook through FY30. The managed services portfolio increases from about 31,000 to 39,000 units, distinct from the roughly 68,000 machines that CMS services through its currency logistics operations.

FSS, established in 1991, has been a recognised name in payments and banking technology and has developed long standing relationships with demanding public and private sector banking clients over three decades. Bringing FSS operations and staff onto CMS's platform is expected to deepen operational capabilities and create immediate opportunities to serve these institutions across cash logistics, remote monitoring solutions and software offerings. CMS intends to realise integration efficiencies through its existing infrastructure and operating scale as the business is absorbed into the platform.

CMS continues to build a unified platform comprising ATM Management Solutions, Retail Solutions and Currency Logistics, and Technology and Payment Solutions to serve banks, financial institutions, organised retail and e-commerce companies across India. The company reports a pan India network covering 97 per cent of districts and technology capabilities that include HAWKAI remote monitoring and ALGO MVS software. Listed on national exchanges since December 2021, CMS is focused on disciplined growth, high free cash flow conversion and expanding its total addressable market in banking and organised retail.
