Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Mastek UK Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary, secured a five-year contract (including two optional years) worth about £49m or $67m plus with the UK Home Office under the HADES 2026 programme. It covers engineering, integration and product development for the Biometrics Services Gateway and National DNA Database, supporting policing, forensics, justice, migration and border services. Mastek expects significant growth from this contract.
Strong export win in hard currency; £49m deal materially boosts UK revenue over five years and deepens UK public sector presence.
