Zensar Technologies, a leading experience engineering and technology solutions company, announced that it has been recognized as one of the 100 Best Companies for Women in India. Additionally, Zensar has earned the esteemed title of "Exemplar of Inclusion" in the Most Inclusive Companies Index in India and has been included in the Avtar Seramount Hall of Fame for being on the Top 100 list consistently for five years in a row since 2018. ⁠ Avtar Seramount helps companies achieve DEI goals and create inclusive workplaces for all.

The Best Companies for Women in India (BCWI) study is in its eighth edition this year and is the most comprehensive gender analytics exercise in corporate India. More than 350 companies participated in the study, which evaluated companies on their efforts towards gender diversity and inclusion, including workforce profile, policies for recruitment, training, retention, advancement, safety, security, flexible work, parental benefits, work-life programs, company culture, and management accountability.

Manish Tandon, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Zensar, commented, “We are honored to be recognized as one of the Top 100 Companies for Women in India and an Exemplar of Inclusion. This recognition underscores our commitment to creating an inclusive and equitable workplace for all employees, regardless of gender. We believe that a diverse workforce is essential for our client’s success, and we are committed to attracting, retaining, and developing top talent.”

Commenting on the occasion, Dr. Saundarya Rajesh, Founder-President, Avtar Group “Gender diversity among the 100 Best Companies continues to increase. The average representation of women (overall) is an inspiring 36.9% this year in 2023 up from 25% in 2016, at the time of the launch of the study. At the Top 10 companies, average women’s representation reported in 2023, is at 41.7%.  At this current rate, a 50:50 gender balance at Best Companies will be a reality by 2030 – a much sooner time frame given the post-pandemic repercussions.”

Vivek Ranjan, Senior Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer, Zensar, said, "Zensar has publicly committed to achieving gender diversity and balanced leadership in our workplace. Our aim is to attain 40% gender diversity by 2030. Benchmarking studies such as the Best Companies for Women in India provide valuable insights into our strengths and areas for further improvement. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Avtar Seramount for recognizing our endeavors and facilitating the creation of a more inclusive working environment."

Zensar's commitment to gender diversity and inclusivity translates into tangible benefits for our clients. A diverse workforce not only cultivates a broader spectrum of ideas and perspectives, fostering innovative solutions, but it also mirrors the diversity within our client base, nurturing trust and rapport. Additionally, a diverse workforce is more resilient to market forces, ensuring that Zensar consistently delivers the high-quality services expected by our clients.
