I would now like to introduce Mr. Raju Vegesna, Chairman of Sify Technologies Limited. Sir? Thank you, Shiwei. Good morning. Trust you and your family are staying safe. Thank you for joining us on the call. As you know, India is in the grips of the second wave of the COVID pandemic. Our governments have reintroduced lockdown to deal with the situation. The first wave was a wake-up call for large companies to increase their investments in digital transformation, and that has helped us insulate them to a large measure this time around. Now that the merits of the digital transformation have been firmly established, we should see more mid-sized businesses adopt automation aggressively. The new normal has blurred the lines between the work and the home environment, calling for businesses to invest in the security of their data over public networks. The challenge is ensuring the public networks are as secure and resilient as the corporate networks. That said, we wish the situation will be over soon, and so the people and their livelihoods can return to the old normal. Let me bring in Kamal, our CEO, to expand on some of the business highlights for the past year. Kamal? Yeah. Thank you, Raju. A year into the pandemic, all the industries cutting across small, medium, and large have accelerated their digital transformation and cloud adoption drive to be able to sustain and grow their businesses in a changed environment. Work from anywhere, movement to hybrid cloud platform, strengthening of disaster recovery plans to enable business continuity, application modernization, all these market trends find a natural solution in Sify's cloud-at-the-core model and offerings. The other important highlight is the growth of hyperscale cloud service providers and OTT players in India, which on one hand is accelerating our data center colocation business and on the other hand, strengthening our hybrid cloud offerings. Overall, we are on the right side of the trend curve. I would now like to expand on the business highlights and our growth drivers. Revenue from data center-centric services grew by 22% over last year. Segment-wise, revenue from data center services grew by 45%, cloud and managed services grew by 21%, and technology integration services grew by 19%, while application integration services fell by 19% over last year. Revenue from network-centric services fell by 7% over last year. Segment-wise, revenue from data and managed services grew by 4%, and voice business fell by 35% over last year. Let me now expand upon the growth drivers. The pandemic has accelerated the primary growth drivers in the market for cloud adoption, led by digital initiatives and transformation. This trend is triggering movement of workloads from on-premise data centers to hyperscale public cloud and hosted private cloud in varying degrees based on the digital objectives of the enterprises. This results in transformation of the traditional network architecture and transformation at the edge, which connects the end user. The need for digital services like analytics, data lakes, IoT, et cetera, are shifting the balance to adoption of hybrid and public cloud versus private cloud. Collectively, these trends are generating opportunities for full-scale cloud, data center, and network service providers with digital services skills. Let me summarize the categories of customers who are signing up with Sify. Customers choosing Sify for migration of their on-premise data center to multi-cloud platforms like CloudInfinit, AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Oracle. They also entrusted Sify with management and security. Customers choosing Sify as their data center hosting partner as they embrace hybrid cloud strategy. Customers choosing Sify as their multi-service digital transformation partner, and customers choosing Sify as their network transformation and management partner as they migrate to cloud ready network. A detailed list of our key wins is recorded in our press release, now live on our website. Let me bring in Vijay, our CFO, to elaborate on the financial highlights for the past year. Vijay? Thank you, Kamal. Good morning, everyone. Let me sum up the performance for the financial year 2021. Revenue for the year was INR 24,320 million, an increase of 6% over the last financial year. EBITDA for the year was INR 5,085 million, an increase of 25% over the last year. Profit before tax for the year was INR 1,599 million, an increase of 57% over last year. Net profit for the year was INR 1,585 million. Deferred tax asset of INR 600 million has been recognized at end of the year based on assessment of reasonable certainty of future taxable income in the individual entities of the group. In future, tax expense comprising current tax and deferred tax, is expected to be in line with the effective tax rate. Capital expenditure for the year was INR 3,483 million. Cash balance at the end of the year was INR 5,438 million. We continue to show steady growth through 2021, despite the challenges that the pandemic has posed. The healthy EBITDA growth has increased our confidence to spend on investing in both people and tools to increase our digital transformation service capabilities. We expect contracts to take slightly longer to conclude as clients take time to regain momentum. Our focus is on insulating the organization as we carefully manage our costs while ensuring that there is no lag in services delivery and customer experience. We are firm on our commitment to our data center, cloud, and network-centric expansion plan, and will exercise due caution in terms of both timing and cost structure of these projects. Considering the resurgent pandemic and the uncertainty on pace of economy recovery, the board of directors did not recommend the payment of dividend this year, and instead advised that the capital be conserved and put to use for capital asset expansion. Following shareholders' approval, we have given effect to business transfer agreements entered into during the quarter for the transfer of data center business and digital services business to wholly owned subsidiary companies. I will now hand over to our chairman for his closing remarks. Chairman? Thank you, Vijay. A good number of the enterprises still didn't transform themselves during the first phase of the pandemic, and began exhibiting renewed enthusiasm towards the adopting of automation, digital transformation, and cloud adoption. Many of them are seeking to outsource the complete IT to players like us who can provide the data centers, hybrid cloud, and the network. We are seeing lot of demand in these integrated solutions, one shop end-to-end, providing data centers and hybrid cloud and the network. We are going to see more and more increasing of interest in the data centers, Indian enterprises looking for the data centers. The cloud and the network. We are going to continuously, like our CFO, Vijay, mentioned, we are going to continuously invest our data centers. We are developing a lot of the excellent data centers in all our areas, in all our regions. We are going to continue doing this, and we will accelerate, because the demand of the data center, as you know, India is growing. Similarly, not only the data centers and the network, the bandwidth consumption is increasing, and we are going to invest in our network technology across the country. Also, our digital transformation, like our multi-cloud platform and our digital services platform. That is also we are going to increase. Thank you for joining us on this call. I will now hand over to the operator for questions. Operator? Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, the floor is now open for questions. If you have any questions or comments, please press star one on your phone at this time. We do ask that while posing your question, you please pick up your handset if listening on speakerphone to provide optimum sound quality. Once again, please press star one on your phone if you have any questions or comments. Please hold a moment while we poll for questions. Our first question today is coming from Greg Burns at SIDOTI Company. Your line is live. Morning. Can you just talk about the business transfer agreement, for the data centers, what the rationale for that is or what that means from a business perspective? Greg, the rationale is because people maintaining their own server rooms at their own data centers. It's very hard to keep up with the kind of manpower required and the resources required to run Tier 3 or what are the high-level redundancy, high level running up the SLAs for the data center. Instead of living in their own server rooms or having their own data centers, they're adopting more of outsourcing their data centers. That is where we are seeing a lot of the data center usage. Second, hyperscalers. We have all the major hyperscalers are in India, the people started using the cloud adoption and hyperscalers with their scale. We are seeing exponential growth in the cloud adoption which is helpful for the hyperscalers. At the same time, people not completely 100% committed to hyperscalers, where people are creating a hybrid solutions, with Sify's CloudInfinit, one of the platform we created intellectual property, which can create a hybrid model with hyperscalers. That is where we see the adoption across the data centers and hyperscalers and the hybrid cloud models. Okay, thanks. Thanks for that color on the demand. I was more asking about the business transfer agreement you mentioned, or Vijay mentioned, moving the data centers to wholly owned subsidiaries. Could you just help me understand what that means? Okay. Yeah. The rationale there. Yeah. Greg, given the fact that the data center businesses are scaling, and as you know, they are capital intensive. In contrast, the digital services business is more IP-led and involves people and tools. To bring in more customer focus and given the different delivery mechanisms, we believe that it is time that we should create independent companies for these two businesses, both of which are wholly owned subsidiaries. At a consolidated level, they don't mean any different, but organizationally, they help the companies to grow at a faster pace and become larger businesses over time. Okay, great. Thanks. All right. In terms of the investments you mentioned for next year, what is your projection for CapEx for the full year, for the next fiscal year? We expect it to be a little more than what we had invested last year. The year which went by, we spent about INR 3,483 million. Assuming pandemic does not disturb much of capacity creation, we should be able to invest much more than what we had done in the previous year. Okay. Relative to, you also mentioned investing in or spending a little bit more maybe on people and tools to help your digital service transformation capabilities. How should we think about the EBITDA margin for next year? Do you expect it to contract maybe a little bit given the spending, or how should we think about that? I don't want to sound much on forward-looking. As far as our current visibility goes, we should be able to maintain the EBITDA margin unless t he pandemic becomes so extreme, has a different implication. As we see now, we should only get better with scale. You have witnessed over a period of time that the EBITDA margins have been gradually improving year-on-year, and we have had a non-linear growth in EBITDA vis-a-vis the revenue. Right. Okay. Then, in terms of the Sorry. Okay, sorry, I lost my train of thought. In terms of the data centers, can you just maybe give us an update on your existing network, capacity utilization is there, and your plans for bringing on additional capacity throughout the year? That said, being with the current COVID situation, we cannot give you complete picture. We have a great plan to bring this year, as much as what we have. Today, we have 10 data centers, we are in the process of building four more data centers, this year and the next 18 months. Those things will continue because we started. Only the thing is, depending upon this lockdown situations could change our readiness for the operations. What we see it is, overall, the growth of the digital transformation in India. One way COVID is bad, but the other way is the digital transformation is accelerated in India. What we see it is in the next four, five years. I think, for my organization, the current data center could be three to four times the growth in the data center itself. Okay. All right. In terms of how COVID is impacting your business, is it more, like you mentioned project cycle times extending. Is that going to maybe more start to impact the technology integration services side of the business? Do you see maybe it's slowing growth a little bit on data centers and Cloud until maybe businesses or some lockdown measures are relieved? Yeah, no, these are projects, will slow down a little bit. In general, the overall lockdown will slow down the business. Hoping this thing will go over soon. At the same time, they need also digital transformation in order to keep up with this lockdown situation. Because the organization still running, right? They're moving more into the digital way of like the banks are still working, right? One way they maybe adopt the new technologies to make it as a digital company instead of you need to be present physically kind of thing. Overall, we see it as a growth. What is COVID offers the challenges is not clear to us at this point. Okay. All right, great. Thank you. Thank you. Our next question today is coming from Jonathan Atkin at RBC. Your line is live. Thanks. Maybe continuing the data center theme, just interested in the mix of demand that you're seeing between Indian enterprises and hyperscalers. How is that shifting, and is there any kind of change in the activity level, in terms of either procuring capacity or moving in equipment on the part of the international hyperscalers in India? Thanks. Jon, I think, we are seeing the same demand what was there before. The hyperscalers growing very well. The adoption of the hyperscalers, that means the public clouds by Indian enterprises, are accelerating every month on month. Similarly, at the same time, adoption of the hybrid also increasing. We are seeing the nice growth and probably 70/30 or 80/20 kind of adoption. I think we'll continuously grow in that adoption. We don't see, maybe it may slow down a couple of months because of this COVID, but we don't see that formula, that equation changing between the hyperscalers, the public clouds versus the private and hybrid clouds. I think that adoption will continue. As that adoption will continue and the demand for the data centers will grow continuously. We see the demand for the data centers continuously growing. India still is in the very early stage of the adoption of the digital transformation. The data center is the backbone for the digital transformation and the hybrid cloud. Okay. A couple weeks ago, or maybe months at this point, there was the announcement with AMS-IX. I just wondered how that benefits your business. Is it kind of like a marketing benefit, or does it specifically benefit the network business, or does it create more of an attraction for your data center services? How do we think about the economic impact, or is it too early to really assess that? It's too early to assess what is the numbers point of view. The benefits, what you said is, it's all above, right? Marketing, right? How do you market our data centers versus the people who provide just a data center. Second is our network integrated solutions and connecting with our data centers. See, the way I look at it is cloud is not just a data centers, right? Cloud means data center plus network. Overall, with our strategy going with the data centers plus the network, that is a unique position for Sify to offer integrating both the data centers and the networking. We are going to bring those kind of technologies more and more to make it, like I said, we want to be an integrated player instead of just providing for an Indian enterprise, just a polo service, vanilla service. Finally, just wanted to ask you about partnerships. There's been some recent ones, I think, even since the last earnings call with international partners partnering with Indian conglomerates to develop data center businesses. Given how capital-intensive these projects can be, how do you think about that as a possible option for Sify? There is always partnership opportunities are coming. Far, Sify has good financial statements, as Vijay Kumar mentioned. We are going to continuously invest what is the CapEx is required. We also don't have any challenge procuring the loans. We always look for the data center, a partner who is required, brings a value to our current value proposition. We are open and we are continuously People come and engage with us. We are looking for a right partners in this kind of game. So far we are doing, because we are established player in the data centers, right? Some of the new players coming, they're trying to validate themselves could be a data center provider. We are serving the data centers for the last 20 years. We are the first Tier 3 data center provider in India, we have 10 data centers, we are serving three hyperscalers in India. We are servicing most of the banks and insurance companies in India. For us, we don't need an international brand to validate our data center business. That's what is different compared to some of the new players trying to validate themselves as a data center player. Thank you very much. Thank you. We have no further questions in the queue at this time. Do you have any closing comments you would like to finish with? Thank you. The entire Sify family offers its condolences to people who have lost their ones during the pandemic. Please continue to wear the mask up and protect yourself and everyone else. Thank you for your time. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. This does conclude today's event. You may disconnect your lines at this time and have a wonderful day. Thank you for your participation.
