MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

Mr. Raju Vegesna, Chairman, said, “India's digital transformation is entering a phase of execution at scale. What was once a digital transformation agenda has now become a business imperative, with organizations investing in technology to improve productivity, resilience, and customer experience.

The country continues to benefit from a unique combination of progressive policy initiatives, expanding digital infrastructure, and a deep pool of technology talent. As AI adoption gathers pace, the need for secure, scalable, and interconnected digital infrastructure will become even more critical. This presents a significant opportunity for India to strengthen its position as a global technology and innovation hub.

At Sify, we continue to align our investments with these long-term trends. Our integrated portfolio of Data Centers, Networks, and Digital Services enables us to support customers as they modernize their technology environments and prepare for an AI-enabled future.

India is no longer preparing for the digital future—it is actively shaping it. Sify remains committed to building the infrastructure and capabilities that will help power this next chapter of growth.”

Mr. M P Vijay Kumar, ED & Group CFO, said, “During the quarter, we continued to strengthen the operational foundations of our businesses through disciplined execution, improved resource utilization, and targeted investments across each of our portfolios.

We continue to invest in capacity expansion, network modernization, and technology platforms that position us to address emerging demand from AI, cloud, and data-intensive workloads. At the same time, we remain vigilant in managing costs, optimizing cash flows, and enhancing operational efficiencies across the organization.

While investments in infrastructure and talent continue to influence depreciation, interest, and manpower costs, these are aligned with our long-term growth objectives and are supported by a prudent approach to risk management and financial planning. Our priority remains unchanged: maintaining a strong balance sheet, preserving financial flexibility, and creating enduring value for shareholders through disciplined growth and responsible stewardship of capital.

The cash balance at the end of the quarter was INR 4,597 Million.”
