MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

Mr. Raju Vegesna, Chairman, said, “India is in one of its most exciting phases of growth. This has to do with its recognition as a mature, stable destination, the availability of relevant resources and tools, and significant untapped demand from Indian enterprises.

“The government has been consistent in using IT as an enablement tool to implement social measures, and this has contributed to a very mature IT ecosystem.

“Our next phase of growth will leverage this favorable environment by introducing innovative and cost-effective digital services for our customers.”

Mr. Kamal Nath, CEO, said, “As Enterprises are pursuing their digital transformation and digitalisation objectives, they are also re-calibrating their digital infrastructure across hybrid cloud, network, security and edge infrastructures. This is a great opportunity for us to monetise our infrastructures designed for Digital IT and transform the way digital infrastructures are managed through our Digitalised services. We are topping that up by continuously building our core digital portfolio to support our customers innovation journey.

“This portfolio places Sify in a unique position for all round customer engagement across their digital lifecycle which we believe would augment our growth strategy.”

Mr. M P Vijay Kumar, ED & Group CFO, said, “Sify and Sify Infinit Spaces Limited (“SIS”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Sify which operates its data centers, have entered into an agreement with KDCF on July 20, 2023, under which KDCF will invest up to INR 6000 Million (approximately USD 73 Million) in the form of compulsory convertible debentures of SIS. SIS will use the proceeds from the issue of these debentures for the expansion of new data centers, including land acquisition for data centers, investment in procuring alternate source of power and repayment of debt.

“Fiscal discipline will remain the cornerstone of our growth strategy as we scale investments into Data Centers and Networks. By judiciously allocating investments and resources, we will seamlessly expand our infrastructure, invest in new resources and build competencies and scale. While we expect to see these investments impact profitability in the near term, they should enable us to aggressively pursue digital transformation engagements in the future.

“We will continue to prioritize resource optimization and sustainability, fortifying our reputation as India’s converged ICT leader.

“The cash balance at the end of the quarter was INR 3240 Million.”
