Hyderabad, October 14, 2025: Shares of Kernex Microsystems (India) Ltd (BSE: 532686, NSE: KERNEX) saw a 9.44% rise to ₹1,342.00 during early trades today after the Research, Designs, and Standards Organization (RDSO) accepted version 4.0 of its automatic train protection system, a huge milestone in modernizing key safety systems for Indian Railways.

Founded in 1991 and headquartered in Hyderabad, Kernex Microsystems is a technology company that is ISO 9001:2015 certified and specializes in solutions for railway safety, signaling, and control. Approval of the latest technology enhances Kernex’s ability to contribute to the Indian Railways’ ambitious Kavach initiative to minimize human error and improve operational safety.

Approval Opens Door For Order Implementation

With the approval from the RDSO, Kernex will now be able to provide its Kavach 4.0 systems under pending contracts totaling ₹3,346.35 crore (including GST). Awarded in cooperation with their consortium and joint venture partners, these contracts have been pending completion since April 2024 and further solidify their market position as major suppliers of leading train safety and signals in India.

Strong Market Response

At the conclusion of trading today, the stock closed at ₹1,348.80, an increase of ₹122.60 or 10.00% from its last closing of ₹1,226.20. Investor sentiment became extremely bullish after the announcement. The stock price reached an intraday high of ₹1,348.80, with more than ₹65 crores in trading volume. The increase in buying orders and lack of selling pressure (apart from profit taking) expressed the renewed confidence in Kernex’s growth outlook.

Outlook:

RDSO approval is likely to improve Kernex’s revenue visibility and accelerate the pace of execution of orders in the upcoming quarters. Analysts expect sustained investor interest as the company benefits from India’s increasing focus on advanced rail safety infrastructure.
