HCL Infosystems announced bagging an Rs 40 crore order from State Bank of India (SBI) to deploy Automated Teller Machines (ATM) numbering more than 1000 across the country.

The ATMs will also support Braille enablement and support for multi lingual content. The deal marks the first of its kind order for the company after forging a tie-up with Korea’s Nautilus Hyosung to jointly offer ATM solutions.

“We have been focusing on providing innovative banking & finance solutions for the Indian market. This order from SBI is once again a recognition of our reach & capability to rollout and support technology solutions across the country. Given the potential of this sector, we are sure that with our ATM solutions we will be able to raise the bar for the banking & financial solutions in India”, said Mr. J.V. Ramamurthy, Chief Operating Officer, HCL Infosystems Ltd.

HCL plans to introduce rural ATMs specially designed for locations with low transaction volumes enabling banks to target the untapped rural areas.
