Black Box deepens hyperscale data centre play with multi-site orders as AI investments rise

Mumbai, Nov 13 (UNI) Black Box Limited is seeing growing opportunities in large-scale digital infrastructure projects as global hyperscalers accelerate investments in artificial intelligence (AI), with the company securing over US$250 million in data centre orders during the first half of FY 26-27, according to a statment issued by company on Friday.
The orders reflect its expanding engagement with hyperscalers and participation in infrastructure programmes involving large-scale data centre capacity.
A substantial pipeline of large hyperscale deals is expected to drive significant order wins and accelerate growth in the coming quarters as per the management.
Unlike standalone technology deployments, these engagements involve complex infrastructure requirements spanning connectivity, network infrastructure, integration and large-scale project execution. Black Box sees opportunities to deepen existing customer relationships and participate in larger infrastructure programmes as hyperscalers expand their AI computing capabilities.
The company supports programmes associated with gigawatt-scale data centre developments and is strengthening its engineering and delivery capabilities, particularly in the United States, to execute increasingly complex projects.
Black Box reported quarterly (Q2 FY 26-27) revenue of ₹1,936 crore, growing 22 per cent year-on-year, while PAT increased 31 per cent to ₹73 crore. EBITDA rose 23 per cent to ₹175 crore.
While hyperscale infrastructure is emerging as an important growth opportunity, Black Box continues to expand its enterprise solutions and Technology Products businesses.
During the quarter, the company secured engagements across network infrastructure, connectivity, data centre integration and digital workplace solutions. Its customer wins included global technology and semiconductor companies, US healthcare providers, a global pharmaceutical company, a major US financial institution and a leading Indian telecom operator.
The Technology Products business is also gaining traction, particularly in specialised control room solutions, as customers modernise critical operations and invest in secure and resilient platforms.
The company is deepening its engagement with 300 strategic enterprise accounts and investing in engineering, sales and delivery capabilities to support larger customer programmes. It plans to recruit nearly 3,000 professionals by FY30, primarily in the United States, with hiring already underway for major data centre projects.
