CMC Ltd was ahead of its time in software development for government
institutions like the Indian Railways and Stock Exchanges. Railway
reservation system was common man’s first tryst with mass scale
computerization of Public programmes. London Underground was also one
of CMC’s prestigious projects. In one of the first cross -border acquisitions by
an Indian IT firm, CMC had acquired a US IT company, Baton Rouge Intl Inc
way back in 1991. CMC’s HR policies were revolutionary. Its skill
development programmes, employee benefit schemes, work ethics and
reward programmes were worthy of emulation. It boasted of state of the art
R&D facility with great IT minds of the time on its payroll. The disinvestment
programme brought about a sudden change of direction.
