It has been a gratifying endeavor to build an enduring institution with a market value of over a billion dollars. We have created employment for about 14,000 professionals worldwide, several of whom have been associated with me for over 25 years. Our customer-centricity helped us build lasting value for our clients, some partnering for more than two decades.  

I have accomplished my mission of building a lasting institution and now leave Cyient in the safe hands of the next-generation leadership—Krishna Bodanapu and the team. The role of Chairman will transition to MM Murugappan, who, with an impeccable track record, has been associated with the company as a lead independent director since its IPO in 1997.
