en.Wedoany.com Reported - Indian telecom equipment manufacturer HFCL Limited has secured two optical fiber cable export orders totaling INR 18.395 billion (approximately USD 19.32 million), with all orders to be executed by August 2026. According to a regulatory disclosure filed by the company with the National Stock Exchange of India on May 11, 2026, the orders are from international customers, obtained in the ordinary course of business, involving the manufacture and supply of optical fiber cables according to customer specifications.

Both contracts are export orders, with one valued at approximately USD 11.43 million (around INR 10.88 billion) and the other at approximately USD 7.89 million (around INR 7.515 billion). HFCL did not disclose the customer names in the filing, describing the buyers only as "reputed international customers." Both contracts must be delivered by August 2026, meaning the company needs to complete all supply tasks within approximately the next 14 months.

HFCL, formerly known as Himachal Futuristic Communications Limited, was established in India in 1987, with its headquarters in New Delhi. It is a technology company engaged in communication networks and optical fiber cable manufacturing. The company's business covers optical fiber, optical fiber cables, telecom equipment, and defense electronics, with five manufacturing facilities located in Goa, Telangana, and Tamil Nadu. Its wholly-owned subsidiary, HTL Limited, also possesses optical cable manufacturing capabilities. To date, HFCL's products have been exported to over 30 countries.

Optical fiber cables remain a core component of global digital infrastructure, supporting broadband connectivity, data transmission, and network modernization. As telecom operators, enterprises, and governments expand fixed broadband network coverage, strengthen backhaul capacity, and address higher data traffic driven by cloud services, AI workloads, and next-generation connectivity, global demand for fiber optic deployment continues to grow. The export orders secured by HFCL this time reflect the integration of India's communication equipment manufacturing capabilities into the global supply chain system.

HFCL has been receiving export orders in rapid succession recently. According to previous filings submitted by the company to the exchange, in December 2025, HFCL secured an export order worth approximately USD 72.96 million (around INR 65.61 billion) through an overseas wholly-owned subsidiary, with a supply period before November 2026; in February 2026, the company secured another export order worth approximately USD 4.67 million (around INR 4.234 billion), scheduled for execution by May 2026. Furthermore, in March 2026, HFCL signed its first long-term, multi-year high-fiber-count optical fiber cable export supply agreement, covering the supply period from 2026 to 2028, with an automatic two-year extension to 2030.
