 Ethical and unethical Practices in the Company

Ethical Practices
Marketing Department
The service marketing mix is a combination of the different elements that companies
use to communicate their organizational and brand message to customers. The mix
consists of the Seven Ps i.e. Product, Pricing, Place, Promotion, People, Physical
Evidence and Process. It is the key foundation on which most modern marketing
strategies and business activities are based. We shall now decode the Marketing Mix
of Infosys.

 Product Strategy
The product strategy of Infosys is to provide business and consulting solutions to
various industries like pharmacy, insurance, mass media, transport services, retail,
manufacturing, banking, defence, energy, etc. Also, it exercises data for these
companies and cultivates software that is based on the needs of the business.

Infosys provides corporate governance data as well, analytics like sentiment analysis
of different companies to see how consumers are reacting to their products.

 Pricing Strategy
Infosys has diverse service and solutions offerings and the pricing is dependent on
factors like client, geography, industry, forex and the solutions sought by the
companies.

Infosys enjoys the benefit of lower labour costs in India with a high skill set. The
company capitalised on the increasing volume of engineers in the 2000s and hired
cheap, high-skilled labour.

  Promotion Strategy
Infosys regularly organises and conducts promotional activities that build interest
and maintain goodwill at the same time. The company has undertaken various
academic initiatives which provide opportunities for employees to manage working
and learning together by company-sponsored trips, case studies, speaker sessions,
etc. An initiative called Infosys Foundation which caters to the green aspect of the
company has been underway leading to Infosys becoming the one of top twenty
green companies. Infosys also hands out an accolade called the Infosys Prize to a

 Workplace ethics and Ethical Leadership
Infosys Leadership Institute (ILI) is committed to helping leaders assume greater
roles and positively influence their teams, clients and the community at large. We
believe that it takes an entire community including internal and external stakeholders
to nurture an environment for learning and growth.

Infosys Leadership Blueprint is our common point of reference, and knits the four
key dimensions i.e. Inspire Transformation, Unlock Synergies, Amplify Team
Potential and Unleash Impact for Clients and Infosys to help our leaders be ready for
the future. This framework is integrated into our developmental interventions,
assessment and talent review cycles.

Developmental Insights: We deploy a host of tools to help our leaders become better
aware of their leadership personalities and styles.

At an Individual and Group level: We use psychometric and 360-degree feedback

tools to help leaders gain good insights about their own styles, and also be aware of
the predominant style of their team members and peers.
At an Organizational level: Annual Talent Reviews are held each year to understand
the fitment of leadership talent in the Performance - Potential grid.
Developmental Approach: ILI’s charter is to be in-sync with business, stay agile and
continuously explore new and impactful developmental efforts.

We adopt a T-shaped approach that includes generic and specific interventions:

Our universal offerings include blended learning experiences that addresses common
developmental needs across levels and geographies.
Customized interventions for Sales and Delivery Units, including the Infosys Sales
Academy dedicated to assessment and business linked developmental modules for
our sales leadership.

world-class universities and learning partners. This includes stretched global
assignments to apply their learnings on a real-time basis, internal and external
coaches as well as opportunities to interface with senior leaders within Infosys and
the industry.
Infosys Leadership Institute works towards facilitating an ecosystem that helps
leaders invest in their own development and become better at not just what they do
but also the kind of leader they become.

 CORPORATE GOVERENCE

 Structure of Corporate Governance

16 | P a g e
 Board Formation

Size and composition of the Board

We believe that our Board needs to have an appropriate mix of executive, non-executive and
independent directors to maintain its independence, and separate its functions of governance
and management. Listing Regulations mandate that for a company with a non-executive
chairman, who is a promoter, at least half of the Board should be independent directors. As

17 | P a g e
on March 31, 2018, our Board comprised nine members, consisting of one non-executive,
non-independent Chairman, two executive directors, and six independent directors.
Independent directors constitute 67% of the Board’s strength – more than the requirements
of the Companies Act, 2013 and the Listing Regulations. Three out of nine members are
women, making up 33% of the Board’s strength. The Board periodically evaluates the need
for change in its size and composition.

The average tenure of members on our Board is 2.6 years as of March 31, 2018. The average
tenure of executive directors (whole-time directors) is 2.2 years, independent directors is 3.1
years and that of the non-executive, non-independent director is 0.6 years.

Remuneration
Non-executive / independent directors’ remuneration (commission)
Shareholders, at the 34th Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on June 22, 2015, approved
a sum not exceeding 1% of the net profits of the Company per annum calculated in
accordance with the provisions of Section 198 of the Act, to be paid and distributed among
some or all of the directors of the Company (other than the Managing Director and whole-

18 | P a g e
time directors) in a manner decided by the Board. This payment will be made with respect to
the profits of the Company for each year.
We have paid ₹ 8.71 core to our independent directors for the year ended March 31, 2018.
Nandan M. Nilekani, Chairman, voluntarily chose not to receive any remuneration for his
services rendered to the Company. Additionally, independent directors are also reimbursed
for expenses incurred in performance of official duties. The aggregate amount was arrived at
using the following criteria:
Particulars in ₹ core in US$

Fixed Board fee 0.49 75000

Board / committee attendance fee 0.16 25000
Non-executive chairman fee 0.98 150000
Chairperson – audit committee 0.20 30000
Members – audit committee 0.13 20000
Chairperson – other committees 0.13 20000
Members – other committees 0.07 10000
Travel fee (per meeting) 0.07 10000
Incidental fees 0.01 1000

The Board believes that the above compensation structure is commensurate with global best
practices in terms of remunerating non-executive / independent directors of a company of
similar size, and adequately compensates for the time and contribution made by our non-
executive / independent director
