The Haryana State Electronics Development Corporation (Hartron) is planning to diversify its operations into newer areas and is scouting for business opportunities outside the state.
The corporation which, so far, has been taking up projects like voter ID cards or smart cards, now wants to expand its portfolio in the power and other sectors by supplying equipments, providing managed services/facilities and extend the e-governance initiatives to other states.
“Outside Haryana, we had only done the voter ID card projects in Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Chandigarh. But now we are thinking of going ahead with new initiatives like smart cards in other states as well.
The smart cards project in Haryana is likely to cost around Rs 150 crore and will be complete within 15 months of approval. We have sent the detailed project report to Government of India and approval
is expected soon,” V.S Kundu, special secretary & director IT, Haryana told Financial Express.
