Tech Mahindra has won the HYSEA’s best company award for its corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts in the fields of environment sustainability and education. Infosys has been adjudged the best company for its efforts in the area of education.

The Hyderabad Software Enterprises’ Association (HYSEA) has instituted the annual CSR awards to identify and recognise efforts of corporates in a variety of CSR activities.

Wells Fargo India Solutions and ADP too got awards for their educational initiatives, while Sumtotal Systems India and CA Technologies and Synchrony Financial got special jury recognition awards at the HYSEA’s third annual CSR Summit held on Tuesday.

“The summit focussed on how to make contributions and bring changes in the lives of local communities by doing voluntary work,” a HYSEA statement said.

“It is extremely important for all of us to understand that it is our duty to pay back to the community and a compulsion because we want to live in a better country, hence we must look beyond fake data and understand that GDP alone cannot be a sign of progress in our country,” Anshu Gupta, Founder Goonj and Ramon Magsaysay Award winner, said.
