RailTel Corporation of India Ltd. has officially received a Letter of Acceptance from the Mahatma Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences (MGIMS), Sevagram, Wardha, for a comprehensive digital infrastructure project. The domestic contract involves the customization, integration, deployment, and maintenance of a Hospital Information Management System (HIMS) alongside other campus-wide management solutions.

In the third quarter ended December 31, 2025, RailTel reported a robust revenue of Rs. 913 Crores, marking a 19% growth from Rs. 768 Crores in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. While EBITDA rose 10.1% to Rs. 133 Crores, net profit experienced a slight year-on-year contraction of 4.1% to Rs. 62.4 Crores due to margin pressures.
