To drive our GHG emissions reduction, we focus our efforts where we can have the most significant impact. Our strategy includes investing in energy efficiency projects, renewable energy (RE), cloud migration, reducing the footprint of data centers, and promoting sustainable travel options. In FY25, we achieved a 93% reduction in Scopes 1 and 2 (market-based) GHG emissions compared to our FY20 baseline.

We have developed build-out guidelines that set the energy and resource efficiency standards for all office spaces and new build-outs. We continue to invest in improving our buildings' energy management and renewable energy. In FY25, we increased our renewable energy usage to 93%, supported by onsite solar installations, power purchase agreements, and renewable energy certificates.

As a digital engineering and consulting company, Virtusa’s operations are not water intensive. However, we understand the importance of responsible water use.

In FY24, we joined the CEO Water Mandate and committed to improving water stewardship in six areas: direct operations, supply chain and watershed management, collective action, public policy, community engagement, and transparency. In FY25, we recycled 51% of water across operations, reinforcing our commitment to sustainable water management.

While biodiversity has little material impact on us, we continue to invest in restoration projects to support ecosystem balance. In FY25, we advanced initiatives such as LIFE to Our Forests in Sri Lanka, LIFE to Our Mangroves in the Anavilundawa Ramsar Wetland, and Phase III of Ranglal Kunta Lake restoration in Hyderabad.

We have processes for managing electronic waste (e-waste), paper, plastic, and organic waste.

E-waste, paper, and plastic (India and Sri Lanka) are handed over to a certified vendor for recycling, and organic waste is composted at owned campuses. In FY25, we diverted 40% of total waste from landfills through recycling and composting initiatives. We continue to implement our Plastics Policy, introduced in FY24, which reinforces our commitment to reducing single-use plastics across operations.

Over the years, we have consistently followed a stringent elimination, modernization, and consolidation strategy to ensure effective and sustainable data center management. This strategy has enabled us to centralize the organization’s shared IT operations and equipment for storing, processing, and disseminating data and applications for internal and external clients.
