MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

Mr. Raju Vegesna, Chairman, said, “A combination of pro-industry regulatory initiatives, an encouraging investment climate and abundant skilled human capital are factors that continue to dominate enterprise business strategies for India. Business leaders are united in their view that India is central to their growth plans and are aggressively ramping up their local investment.”

Mr. Kamal Nath, CEO, said, “As Enterprises pursue their digital transformation and digitalisation objectives, they are also re-calibrating their digital infrastructure across hybrid cloud, network, security and edge infrastructures. Customer experience, business continuity, cyber security, application modernization and overall adoption of AI models are the prime drivers for this recalibration.

Our infrastructure investments and services portfolio are fundamentally aligned to meet the customer goals. Simultaneously, we are continuously engaged with our customers to identify their specific needs and selectively recalibrate our propositions to support the same.”

Mr. M P Vijay Kumar, ED & Group CFO, said, “We continue to invest in bringing more Data Center capacity to the market, extending our network footprint and skilling our people on new tools. These investments are being made ahead of the curve and will reflect on our net profit for the near future. The interest on CCDs, accounted as equity in accordance with GAAP, are recognised as expense in the statement of income.

The cash balance at the end of the quarter was INR 6,037 Million.”
