- Announces ESG Vision 2030 to continue to shape and share solutions that serve 
businesses and communities

Infosys [http://www.infosys.com/] (NYSE: INFY), the global leader in 
next-generation digital services and consulting, published its Environmental, 
Social and Governance (ESG) Vision for 2030. This announcement is part of 
Infosys' long-standing commitments focused across core areas: climate change, 
technology for good, diversity and inclusion, energizing local communities, 
ethics and transparency, data privacy and information management. This legacy 
of purpose and impact has inducted the company into the prestigious Dow Jones 
Sustainability Indices (DJSI) and made it part of the DJSI World and DJSI 
Emerging Markets Indices. 

As part of its ongoing Environmental, Social and Governance efforts, including 
leveraging renewables, orchestrating energy efficiencies and driving unique 
fully funded community-based carbon offset projects, Infosys is now carbon 
neutral in compliance with PAS 2060 standards. According to The Lawrence 
Berkeley National Laboratory, Infosys' work campuses are some of the most 
energy-efficient in the world. In fact, over the past years, the company has 
reduced its per capita electricity consumption by over 55 percent with the 
ambition to transition to renewable energy. It is the first Indian signatory to 
the RE100 global campaign. Infosys has also successfully developed a portfolio 
of community-based carbon offset projects. These focus primarily on 
socio-economic development of rural communities and contributions to the UN 
Sustainable Development Goals. The projects not only address climate change, 
but also benefit over 100,000 rural families.

Infosys, since inception, has recognized that the integration of ESG factors in 
corporate and business decision-making is an ongoing commitment.
 
N. R. Narayana Murthy, Founder - Infosys, said, "Longevity and success for a 
company comes from living in harmony with the context in which it operates. 
Right from the first day, Infosys has recognized and fulfilled its 
responsibilities towards overcoming the challenges in our context. It has also 
taken on new responsibilities like reducing carbon emission, improving air 
quality, optimally using water and solar power. The Infosys Foundation has 
helped the poor by addressing their needs in education, healthcare, nutrition 
and shelter as well as providing shoulder to the efforts of our governments 
during times of disaster. Today, nearly four decades after embracing these 
values, I am happy that Infosys continues to strive hard for these values to 
make our context better."

Nandan Nilekani, Co-founder and Chairman, Infosys, said, "Infosys has always 
balanced success as a business with unwavering focus on exemplary governance 
and responsiveness to the needs of the ecology and society. As an early 
proponent of responsible business, we understand our obligation to integrate 
ESG factors into what we do, which is only increasing in importance 
particularly in the wake of COVID-19.  Our company began to take action to 
combat climate change in 2008 and I am delighted to announce Infosys' carbon 
neutrality in 2020. Today, our 2030 vision reflects how ESG will continue to be 
integral to Infosys' sustainable business performance."
