Message from the Chairman
It is my privilege to present to you our inaugural ESG Report.
Ever since our inception, we have been committed to maintaining the highest standards of ethics and integrity, and we believe that we must be socially responsible and accountable for our actions.
Global challenges around pollution, climate change and demographic polarization lead to inequitable distribution of food, water, healthcare, data security and privacy. In addition to being conscious and responsible, we must work together to find innovative technology solutions to address these global challenges. The society needs companies to act responsibly and solve these problems in our lifetime. We commit to doing our part.

This ESG Report provides a consolidate overview of our activities as a responsible corporate citizen in our sustainability journey. We believe that this report will encourage us to reflect, challenge us to find innovative solutions and inspire us to do more.
In line with the times, we have extended our definition of stakeholders and have gone beyond the narrow view that profits and shareholders’ financial interest are the only objectives for the existence of the Company. Our Board has defined stakeholders to include employees, customers, vendors, suppliers, the environment, the society and of course the shareowners. Considering the importance of ESG and to ensure Board-level oversight, we have extended the charter of the Stakeholders Relationship Committee to include ESG.
Being responsible is the cornerstone of our ESG policy.
During the last two years, the pandemic has tested our resolve. While the Company and the software industry did well during the pandemic, not everyone was as fortunate. This report shares highlights of the support we provided to our stakeholders to help them overcome such difficult times.
We are committed to net zero Green House Gas (GHG) emissions by 2030 and have started to take concrete steps in this direction. Water is a crucial and scarce resource. We are committed to water stewardship and aim to reduce freshwater consumption and achieve 100% wastewater recycling in our owned campuses.
We have set challenging goals to increase diversity in the workplace and are committed to attracting and nurturing top-talent. #LifeAtPersistent aims to ensure work-life harmony and focuses on supporting employees and their families through physical, social, financial, and emotional well-being. We live in a world where continuous education is key to survival, and we are committed to investing in learning and development, ensuring that our investments are useful to all stakeholders.
Anand Deshpande
Founder, Chairman and Managing Director
Giving back to the society has never been more important and I’d like to thank each member of the Persistent family for their active support and unshakable trust in our abilities to deliver on our promise. You have motivated us to unleash our potential for the next phase of our growth.
