Tata Consultancy Services Ltd Chairman Speech

Chairman

The global environment is going through considerable changes. At the same time, the world is navigating several important transitions: the Energy transition, the Supply Chain transition and the AI transition. Undoubtedly, these transitions will require significant investments in technology and innovation, and offer a huge growth opportunity for the IT industry.

Dear Shareholder,

I am pleased to share that your company has done well in a volatile global environment in the year gone by. In FY 2023, your company delivered revenue of ^225,458 crore, a growth of 17.6%. This growth has come at an industry-leading operating margin of 24.1%.

TCS continues to play a crucial role with clients to enable their business transformation, helping them accelerate new technology adoption and bring agility into execution. We work with large enterprises on transformation initiatives to build a digital foundation for the future, enable strategic leverage of data and artificial intelligence (AI) and reimagine customer and employee experiences.

Your company delivered healthy client metrics enabled by new customer additions and deep client relationships.

In FY 2023, growth has come from broad-based performance across markets and industry verticals. The order book continues to be strong, indicating demand for your company's services. From a talent perspective, the employee strength grew to over 614,000 associates with 35.7% women associates.

The global environment is going through considerable changes. Geopolitical factors such as the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, rising inflation and volatile commodity prices have caused slowing down of global growth and created stress in the overall economic environment.

At the same time, the world is navigating several transitions. Undoubtedly, these transitions will require significant investments in technology and innovation, and offer a huge growth opportunity for the IT industry.

The global energy transition is accelerating. Businesses are making clear commitments towards a sustainable future.

There are many innovations across products, services, manufacturing, and delivery. New business models are also emerging. This requires investments in technology and innovation including electric mobility, renewable power, hydrogen and sustainable fuel. In addition, sustainability compliance and reporting requirements are fast evolving as new standards and regulations are coming into play. Across the facets of this transition, investments in IT and digital technology will be an important enabler for businesses.

The supply chain transition resulting from the geo-political situation is altering the global supply chains. Companies are rebalancing their supply chains for resilience and efficiency.

New global supply chain ecosystems are being created with India playing an important role. This is being led by significant capital investments in technology to set-up 'digital-first' manufacturing and supply chain operations as well as to build ecosystem integration with partners.

In the past decade, there has been a rapid evolution of digital technologies, bringing about a transformation across every industry. Now, the advancements in AI have made AI transition

a central focus. The impact of AI and Machine learning is going to be profound. There is a transition already underway from predictive AI to generative AI. Majority of the businesses are still adopting predictive AI and are on the journey of capturing large volume of data, harnessing the power of cloud and IoT. There are varying levels of adoption in companies across sectors. Leveraging generative AI would further require technology innovation and investments.

There is another important area that companies need to focus on - building talent for the future. The energy, supply chain and AI transitions are going to require companies to reskill/upskill existing talent base, hire and integrate new talent and invest in research. Our technology strengths make us well-placed to respond to the global demand and scale up our talent base.

As the future of work is evolving, enterprises globally are also assessing their approach to talent. Today, companies can tap into talent anywhere and leaders need to learn how to harness the global talent pool effectively. Technology and tools are facilitating collaboration and enabling virtual and hybrid models of work. Harnessing this talent will need an approach that leverages technologies like AI and cloud to enable effective employee engagement and collaboration.

Your company is significantly investing in building AI capabilities which include products and platforms that are AI-powered.

Over the last few years, your company has leveraged partnerships to design and orchestrate a completely indigenous software-defined 4G/5G network stack. 5G technologies along with IoT, edge and AI will enable new digital transformation opportunities across industries, both industrial and consumer. We will also invest in research areas important for the future, in collaboration with our global academic partners and start-up ecosystem.

I would like to thank Rajesh Gopinathan for his contribution during his tenure as CEO & MD and I wish him the very best for the future. I also take this opportunity to wish K Krithivasan the very best in his new role as CEO & MD of your company.

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Tata Consultancy Services,

I want to thank you for your continued trust, confidence, and support.

Warm regards,

N Chandrasekaran

Chairman

The Company is committed towards conservation of energy and climate action which is reaffirmed in its Environmental Sustainability policy

(https://on.tcs.com/Environmental-Sustainability).

During the year, several initiatives were aligned to achieve the carbon targets which included those in building and IT infrastructure. Initiatives in building infrastructure included higher energy efficiencies in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, uninterruptible power supply (UPS), LEDs, motors, chillers and Energy Monitoring and Analytics (Clever Energy + Resource Oprtimization Center) which resulted in energy savings of 4,219 MWh, equivalent to 3,016 tCO2e reduction during FY 2023.

Initiatives in green IT focussed on data center and IT device consolidation and optimization to reduce the carbon footprint. Our data centers had a weighted average power utilisation effectiveness (PUE) of 1.66 during the year. In addition to this, the Company ensures energy efficiency of the equipment it procures.

The Company continues to leverage the TCS' IoT-based Real-time Energy Management System (TCS Clever EnergyTM) that involves real time monitoring to optimization of operational energy efficiency across all offices.

The roof top solar photo voltaic installations this year remained at 10.2 MWp contributing to 3.44 percent of total electricity use in the reporting year. The Company increased the renewable energy procurement through switch over to green tariffs for its operations in several states in India and addition to open access power purchase

agreements (PPA). The renewable energy procurement has resulted in an increase in renewable energy use to 55.2 percent of total energy use.

TCS is certified to ISO 50001:2018 standards for Energy Management Systems (EnMS) across 19 campuses in India of which 14 campuses were included in FY 2023 ensuring our commitment to energy conservation and management.

The above energy efficiency and renewable energy procurement efforts helped achieve a year-on-year reduction in absolute carbon footprint (across Scope 1 and Scope 2) of TCS' global operations by 12.4 percent. The Company has achieved a 71 percent reduction in absolute emissions (Scope 1 and Scope 2) when compared to the base year of FY 2016 thereby achieving the 2025 target (of 70 percent reduction) ahead of time. The electricity consumption across TCS operations increased by 33.3 percent compared to FY 2022. This is due to increased resumption of operations in FY 2023 compared to FY 2022 and inclusion of 22 locations globally in the reporting boundary during the current year.

The Company has achieved carbon neutrality across Scope 1 and Scope 2 in Asia Pacific*, Europe, North America, UK & Ireland**, Latin America, Middle East & Africa regions during the reporting year.

Continued focus on the above initiatives will enable steer the Company towards achieving its carbon target to become net zero by 2030.
