Hyderabad: Tanla proudly announces the release of its first Sustainability Report for the fiscal year 2022-23. This report has been prepared in accordance with Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards 2023. The report underscores Tanla’s unwavering commitment to sustainability, environmental stewardship, and corporate responsibility.
Sustainable Initiatives: Tanla’s dedication to a sustainable future is evident in its proactive measures to drive digital transformation and innovation.

“Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond the platforms we build – we have embedded sustainability practices in everything we do as a company. Our innovations enable accessibility, ensure data privacy and data security, and combat spam and scam for the billions of mobile users we serve through our enterprise customers – our customers’ customers. All journeys start with a single step – we are hopeful that our steps in this direction will inspire a far greater change,” Uday Reddy, Founder Chairman & CEO, Tanla Group.
