| Sustainability and Us |
 |
| |
| Our journey of sustainability started with the cascading of sustainability awareness across the entire organisation. This was followed by the formulation of a structured roadmap tailor-made for each sector's individual materiality. The next logical step was to undertake strategic initiatives at business and unit level towards the achievement of the long term goals that we have set for ourselves. |
|
|
|
The comprehensive group roadmap, along with the customised roadmaps for individual sectors, articulates goals on a three year and five year timeline. We regularly keep track of our progress and report it as well. The present report covers the second year of the three year timeline and the progress charted out across all the goals has been very encouraging. In fact, most businesses have surpassed these targets. |

For the roadmap review MWC's performance has not been considered owing to their dynamic nature
of business of expansion and new developments. Tech M data is also not considered because
there
is a significant improvement in the data collection process for the past two years compared
to base-line year. |
|
| Companies added in the scope in FY 2009-10 and FY 2010-11 are not a part of the roadmap, because they do not align with the already set baseline year for the above reasons. In the future, we plan to alter the roadmap to address the same. |
