MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

Mr. Raju Vegesna, Chairman, said, “It is comforting to witness India's growth amidst global challenges. Our people possess remarkable skills, driving progress despite disruptions. International business leaders share our optimism, recognizing India's potential. Their confidence reflects positively on our business environment, attracting investments and fostering partnerships. This growth isn't just for businesses—it benefits our entire nation, creating jobs, improving livelihoods, and driving development.

Despite geopolitical disturbances, India stands strong, powered by our abundant talent and unwavering spirit. Together, we're shaping a brighter future for generations to come. I am committed to fostering this growth, ensuring that India continues to thrive on the world stage and Sify has a central role to play.”

Mr. Kamal Nath, CEO, said, “As Enterprises advance their digital transformation and digitalization goals, they are strategically realigning their digital architecture across applications, hybrid cloud, network, security, and edge environments. Customer experience, business continuity, cybersecurity, application modernization, and AI enablement are the pivotal catalysts driving this recalibration.

Our robust infrastructure investments and comprehensive services portfolio are structured to precisely address customer objectives. Concurrently, we maintain proactive engagement with clients, identifying their distinct requirements and customizing our offerings to align with their evolving needs.”

Our investment philosophy encompasses expanding Data Center presence to new locations for sustained growth, increasing capacity at existing facilities to meet immediate demand, and fortifying network and cloud interconnectivity. Simultaneously, we're prioritizing the expansion of our workforce, equipping them with essential skills, tools, and processes to drive innovation and efficiency.

All the while, we remain steadfast in our commitment to cost-effectiveness and fiscal prudence.

Cash balance at the end of the year was INR 5,835 Million.”
