There are other two bidders TCS, Infosys who were bidding for this particular project but finally wipro has won this deal.The project was mandated by ESI Act 1948 with a focus on creating a medicare backbone for the marginalised sections of society. According to sources the bid was opened on Nov 25 2008 and ESIC received 3 bids. This is can last up to six and a half years with wipro.
