3. From the CEO’s Desk for growth. We started a new talent paradigm in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia by creating the first all-women center in BPS and IT. I am proud that as an organization we sustain and improve the quality of experience of our 1500+ customers. Over 96% of our customers appreciate the responsiveness and accessibility of our project teams; 98% consider TCS a partner of choice and are willing to endorse our capabilities; and 94% feel that it is easy to collaborate and do business with us. As an organization, we continue to build our people strength through diversity in multiple dimensions. While our total employee base reached 319,656 this year, making us the third-largest employer in the global IT services industry, we were also delighted to celebrate the landmark of employing 105,481 women – a rare feat in the corporate world also in the context of TCS being host to 122 nationalities across our global footprint of 232 locations. Dear Stakeholders, I am glad to connect with you around this time each year on the occasion of the publication of Tata Consultancy Services’(TCS) Corporate Sustainability Report.

4. While we focus on business, we also continue to promote the health and wellness of our employees through the Fit4Life program. Sponsorship of marathons like the TCS New York City Marathon has created a unique opportunity to engage with communities in health and wellness. With our Purpose4Life program, TCSers volunteered over 200,000 hours globally to make an impact in communities in education, health, and environment. These are exciting times when India has taken the lead in mandating corporate spend on social causes. FY 2015 represents the first year for reporting on CSR under the new regime of the Companies Act 2013. TCS has a CSR Committee of the Board and has published a global CSR Policy. We have also established a CSR Foundation to undertake large-scale projects. This is in addition to the existing volunteering and projects which utilize core competency to support social causes. TCS was among the first corporates to identify with the Prime Minister's Swachh Bharat Abhiyan (Clean India Initiative), and has pledged ₹100 crores to build dedicated sanitation facilities for girl students in government schools. Our CSR flagship, the Adult Literacy Program, reached over 2,00,000 beneficiaries, with around 30,000 jail inmates becoming literate. STEM education has become a focal point for our community efforts in the USA, Canada, UK, and Australia. Since its inception in 2009, goIT has impacted more than 8,800 students across 11 cities. In UK, the IT Futures program has facilitated learning for students in 160 schools. TCS is also proud to be a founding donor of the Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering. The safety and well-being of our employees is of prime importance. Our drive on road safety, ergonomics, fire safety, general office, and personal safety is strengthened with a behavioral safety approach. We have deepened our engagement with employees on safety, and converted them to being safety responsive. TCS promotes employee health and wellness through its Fit4Life program. impacted by goIT AWARD ₹1 bn pledged to Swachh Bharat Abhiyan 8,800 students 11 cities TOP EMPLOYERS INSTITUTE #1 Employer in Europe, UK, and North America

5. We have completed a year since the launch of the Safety First initiative on May 2, 2014 in which we had chosen to focus on Accidents, Crime, Health, and Self Harm. We are constantly working to make TCS a‘Zero Incidents’organization – both internally and externally. The endeavor to pursue our Environmental Sustainability Roadmap continues. Carbon footprint and energy management are among areas of strong focus. We continue to work toward the target of specific carbon footprint reduction in order to decouple business growth from the carbon and energy footprint. Green buildings, green IT, operational energy efficiency, and renewable energy are the pillars for achieving this target. Looking forward, we have a unique opportunity to grow and lead our industry to greater heights with a strong focus on our customers; a culture of innovation and collaboration; a platform for our employees to realize their potential and make a strong impact on society. We continue to invest in new technology and building people capabilities. We remain a performance-driven organization that believes in excellence and rigor in everything we do. Regards, N.

17. Fit4Life motivates employees to participate in physical fitness activities. Launched by the CEO in May 2014, SafetyFirst targets making the company a zero fatality organization. In today’s economic scenario, employee wellness is no longer desirable, but pivotal to an organization’s long-term success. However, the pace of life often deters people from taking up activities for improving health. If the concept of improving health and wellness is coupled with improved bonding and camaraderie among co-workers as well contributing to a social cause, I am convinced many professionals will be proud to be associated with such an initiative. - N CHANDRASEKARAN, CEO and MD,TCS All-Round Wellness We take an active interest in the overall well-being of employees, and focus on a culture of fitness activities and social good.
