NOTE FROM THE REGION HEAD

Dear Friends,

I am pleased to write to you once again and share the latest edition

of “Touch.Tomorrow” with you. I am delighted to inform you that for the financial year

ended 31 March 2012 our Asia-Pacific, India, Middle East & Africa revenues grew

40% YoY. This region accounted for 25% of global revenues this year, up from 20%

a year earlier. In this Newsletter we are also including our Q1 results which truly are

a tick in the box marking the end of our 3 year transformation journey, with EBITDA

at 21.7% and attrition down to 13.5%.

Our strategy for growth will include M&A. We recently acquired V-Customer. This marks the entry of Mahindra Satyam‟s

BPO operations into other verticals such as Retail and Consumer Technology in addition to significantly enhancing

Technical Support credentials. Also, Mahindra Satyam and Japan‟s SBI Holdings announced a USD 50 million Joint

Global Fund. The objective of the fund is to help leapfrog the innovation curve by investing in high growth and promising

companies in the evolving ICT space. We consider “innovation” as an integral enabler to our future growth, intending to

harness new business opportunities in IT Services/Consulting work from companies the fund invests in, possible

revenue stream from other portfolio companies of SBIH and access to next-generation technologies, in addition to

financial returns from the judicious investments being made. We acquired a strategic stake in Dion Global Solutions.

Dion has a portfolio of cutting-edge solutions and services for global capital markets covering portfolio management,

trading, settlement, risk management, analytics, treasury and research services. It serves more than 660 clients in 62

countries.

We focus our main areas of investment on N-MACS, which stands for Network, Mobility, Analytics, Cloud and Security.

N-MACS is a broad strategy of the merged entity, which will enable our customers to be future-ready. We believe N-

MACS can help our customers transform, leverage and grow their businesses to greater heights.

In a move towards expediting expansion and creating deeper relationships in the Australian, New Zealand and Asian

markets, we are pleased to announce the appointment of Ted Pretty as Chairman of our Australia & New Zealand

In April 2012, we launched the first Customer Connect Forum in APAC, branded Futurescapes™. Over 150 senior

management delegates from our customer organisations attended this event held at Sydney and Singapore. Our senior

leadership team led by CP Gurnani, CEO, engaged with our customers and made a presentation on the company‟s

successful 3-year transformational journey and the path ahead.

As you may have already read, Tech Mahindra and Mahindra Satyam have announced the merger of the two

organisations on March 21, 2012. The merger is progressing on schedule and during the last quarter, Mahindra

and Kuala Lumpur), a charity outreach centre for needy mothers and

their children. This centre strives to make a rewarding contribution

for the fulfillment of the aspirations of the less privileged children and

their families to constructively shape their participation in the

society. Instead of housing and raising children in a home, the

organization helps single mothers raise their children on their own by

providing monetary and moral support.

The winners took home RM1500 (1st Prize), RM1000 (2nd Prize) and

RM500 (3rd Prize) for both Novice and Regular Categories. 28

consolation prizes were also given away. The surplus amount

(RM3000) was donated to the charity home on the same day after

contributed RM2003 to buy groceries for eight single mothers and

their children. Five single mothers together with their children were

present on that day to collect the Mock Cheque (RM3000) and the

“goody bag” which contained groceries (their 1 month supply) worth

RM200++ each.

The single mothers were also given an opportunity to set up stalls to

sell snacks and drinks. This enabled the mothers to make a sale of

RM500++. In addition to this, participants handed in „treasures‟ such

as floor cleaner, variety cereal pack, packet drinks, biscuits and

recycled newspapers. The estimated cost of these „treasures‟

amounting to about RM1000 were handed over to the charity home

as well.
