HCLTech arm HCLSoftware will buy Croatia-based Robotiq.ai for 9 million euro (Rs 98 crore) to expand its AI automation platform.

HCLTech announced the deal on 28 September. It is an all-cash deal, and 9 million euro is the enterprise value.

HCL Technologies Austria GmbH, a step-down wholly owned subsidiary, will buy 100% of Robotiq.ai. The filing expects the deal to close by the end of November 2026.

Robotiq.ai is based in Zagreb and was set up in August 2018. Large banks, insurance firms and telecom providers use its software.

The company says the product comes with ISO-certified security, audit logs and flexible ways to set it up. Robotiq.ai makes robotic process automation, or RPA, tools.

Many older business systems cannot easily share data with other programs because they lack standard connections called APIs.

RPA gets around the gap by operating those systems the way a human user would.

HCLSoftware will add the technology to HCL UnO Agentic, its platform for coordinating AI agents and business applications.

The company says customers now want AI that can carry out work, not just reason about it. It describes the deal as a step from decision-making into execution.

Kalyan Kumar, President of HCLSoftware, said businesses are moving from AI experiments to large-scale automation.

Darko Jovišić, CEO and co-founder of Robotiq.ai, said joining HCLSoftware will give his firm’s technology more reach and scale.

He said the aim is automation that is quick to set up and dependable in daily use. Robotiq.ai earned revenue of 1.4 million euro in the year to 31 December 2025.

It reported 0.9 million euro in each of 2024 and 2023. Earlier this month, HCLTech launched HCLTech Pulse, a new business unit for companies with yearly revenue between $500 million and $5 billion.

The unit offers AI, cloud, data and cybersecurity services. HCLTech employs more than 223,000 people in 60 countries. Its revenue for the 12 months to June 2026 was $14.8 billion.
