Kernex Microsystems Secures ₹15.90 Crore Order for Yard Safety System
Kernex Microsystems received a ₹15.90 Crore Letter of Intent from Jindal Steel Limited for a Torpedo & Loco Tracking System. This marks diversification into industrial automation and safety solutions, with potential for future opportunities in various industrial sectors.
The order value of ₹15.90 Crores is material, and it represents a strategic diversification into a new segment, which could have a medium-term impact on the company's revenue and market position.
The company has received a significant order, which is a positive development for its business diversification and future growth prospects.
Kernex Microsystems (India) Limited has announced receiving a Letter of Intent (LOI) from Jindal Steel Limited (JSL) for the design, supply, installation, testing, and commissioning of an advanced Yard Safety Management & Automation System, specifically a Torpedo & Loco Tracking System. The contract is valued at ₹15.90 Crores (excluding GST).
This proprietary solution is an integrated platform developed by Kernex, combining real-time locomotive tracking, safety interlocking systems, sensor-based field integration, and AI-enabled central command and monitoring software. The company highlights that this system is engineered as a ground-up industrial safety and automation architecture tailored for large-scale industrial yards, positioning Kernex as an early mover in this segment.
The project represents a strategic milestone for Kernex, signifying diversification beyond its traditional railway-focused operations into advanced technology-driven industrial tracking, monitoring, automation, and safety solutions. This development is expected to strengthen the company's technology portfolio, expand opportunities in emerging industrial sectors like integrated steel plants, coal handling yards, and logistics terminals, and support long-term sustainable growth.
The execution timeline for the order will be determined by the Work Order to be received from JSL. Kernex believes this expansion into industrial automation and safety management systems addresses a largely underpenetrated market.
