Item1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 7, 2026, Healthcare Triangle, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Platform Development Agreement (the “Agreement”) with SecureKloud Technologies Limited, an Indian corporation (“SKL”), as lead contractor, and Blockedge Technologies Inc., a subsidiary of SKL (“Blockedge”), as sub-contractor. The Agreement is made effective as of March 31, 2026. The Agreement supplements and amends the Company’s master services agreements dated April 1, 2023 and January 1, 2025 (collectively, the “MSAs”), and except as expressly stated in the Agreement, the terms and conditions of the MSAs remain in full force and effect.

Pursuant to the Agreement, SKL, with the assistance of Blockedge, will design, develop, test, and deliver an integrated health advisory and care platform and related tools, including document management artificial intelligence tools, in accordance with functional specifications and a project plan. The platform and tools are intended to form part of the Company’s (together with its subsidiaries) commercial product offerings. The Company will monitor development progress periodically, and SKL and Blockedge will endeavor to incorporate comments or modifications from the Company in the development of the intellectual property rights and tools being procured under the Agreement.

The project term commenced March 31, 2026, and is expected to be completed within 12 to 15 months, but in no event later than September 30, 2027.

The Agreement provides that all intellectual property rights in and to the deliverables and tools developed under the Agreement, including enhancements and derivative works, will be owned exclusively by the Company. SKL and its subsidiaries irrevocably assign to the Company all such rights and ownership interests, and SKL and its subsidiaries, including Blockedge, will have no ongoing rights, ownership, commissions, or royalties arising out of the deployment or use of such intellectual property rights and tools developed exclusively for the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to the Agreement. The tools are to be developed for deployment solely by the Company and its subsidiaries, primarily in North American and European markets, but the Company may deploy the tools globally without any approval or consent requirement from SKL or Blockedge.

The Agreement includes an acknowledgment regarding advances previously paid by the Company to SKL and Blockedge that were outstanding as of March 31, 2026, consisting of an advance of approximately $3.48 million to SKL and an advance of approximately $0.345 million to Blockedge. The Agreement further provides that the advances received by Blockedge are transferred to SKL and are subject to being offset against invoices to be raised by SKL. SKL will issue monthly invoices for services rendered by SKL and Blockedge, inclusive of applicable transfer pricing and applicable taxes, by the fifth working day of each month for the preceding month, and the Company will have the right to offset such invoices against the advance payments previously made, at the Company’s discretion. The Agreement also provides that the Company will not make any further payment to SKL or Blockedge for services performed under the Agreement unless and until the cumulative advance payments up to the maximum approved amount are fully offset and settled as described in the Agreement.

The parties agreed that the total budget for the project will be no more than $3.0 million, with an additional $0.2 million contingency budget, subject to amendment. Any cost overrun beyond $3.2 million (including the contingency) must be pre-approved by the Company in writing prior to being incurred, together with reasonable explanations regarding such overrun.

The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
