Kernex Wins Contract From Integral Coach Factory For KAVACH Upgrade

Kernex Microsystems (India) Limited has announced that Integral Coach Factory (ICF), Chennai, has awarded the company a contract for the supply, installation, testing and commissioning of on-board KAVACH by way of an upgrade from version 3.2 to 4.0. The scope covers hardware and software in accordance with Research Designs and Standards Organisation specification RDSO/SPN/196/2020 and includes warranty and comprehensive annual maintenance contract. The contract is domestic in nature and has been disclosed under SEBI listing obligations and circulars.

The order value is Rs. 318.7 mn including goods and services tax. The work is to be completed on or before 31/03/2027 and will involve system integration and testing across relevant coaches manufactured at the factory. The upgrade is intended to enhance on-board train protection capabilities and improve interoperability with existing signalling systems specified by RDSO. The company will undertake delivery, installation and commissioning as per the technical and commercial terms agreed with the customer.

The award follows an internal procurement process by ICF and represents an order for upgradation rather than fresh development of new signalling equipment. Kernex Microsystems will provide post installation support under the warranty and the comprehensive annual maintenance contract specified in the order. The transaction does not involve international parties and is reported as a domestic contract. There is no indication that promoters or promoter group companies have any interest in the customer entity.

The company has filed the requisite disclosure with the stock exchanges in line with SEBI circulars and compliance requirements. The order is expected to be executed within the stipulated timeline and to contribute to the company's order book and revenue visibility for the relevant financial period. Details provided in the filing include contract scope, timeline and consideration. This announcement is for regulatory disclosure and record.
