HCLTech has made TIME's World's Most Sustainable Companies list for a second straight year, the company said Friday. The Indian IT firm ranked in the top five globally among professional services companies and was the highest-ranked India-headquartered firm in the category.
TIME compiled the list with Statista, scoring more than 5,800 companies across 20-plus indicators that include emissions commitments, reporting transparency, and environmental and social performance.
HCLTech said the recognition reflects its work aligning with the UN Global Compact and Sustainable Development Goals. In its fiscal 2026, the company said it replenished 51 times more water than it consumed and retained a zero waste-to-landfill platinum certification across all owned facilities. It also hit its 2030 SBTi-validated emissions target four years early.
"Being recognized by TIME for a second consecutive year reflects the progress we are making in embedding sustainability deeper into the core of our business and advancing our net-zero ambition for 2040," said Vipul Arora, HCLTech's global head of sustainability.
The company has more than 223,000 employees across 60 countries. It reported consolidated revenue of $14.8 billion for the 12 months through June 2026.
