Newgen Software Technologies Ltd, a New Delhi-based information technology firm, has bagged a sub-contract to make Rashtrapati Bhawan paperless and "seamless" in the next 2-3 months, a company official said on Friday.

"We are executing a project, which started last month, through Wipro to make Rashtrapati Bhawan a paperless office," Newgen Software Technologies Ltd vice president (sales) Punit Jain told reporters in Bangalore on Friday.

Newgen's two products -- OmniFlow, a platform independent, scalable workflow solution that enables automation of business solutions and OmniCapture, a production scanning system for high volume paper to image conversion, indexing and filing -- were being used for the project, he said.

"The President's office gets mails, petitions and letters and our solutions help in automating it. This will help in accessing the information whenever it is required from a database," Jain said.

The Rs 35-crore (Rs 350 million) Newgen, Jain said, was the only Indian firm to develop document management, workflow and imaging solutions products and has over 400 people including 300-strong research and development team at Delhi.

Citibank has picked up 18 per cent stake in the firm, promoted by two technocrats, Diwakar Nigam and T S Varadarajan in 1992.
