Annual Report Access

The company has circulated a letter to shareholders providing a web-link to the Integrated Annual Report for Financial Year 2025-26. This disclosure is pursuant to Regulation 36(1)(b) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, specifically for members who have not registered their email addresses with the company or depository participants.

Protean eGov Technologies released its Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) for FY26 on August 28, 2026. The disclosure highlights a 60% reduction in Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions compared to the prior year.

The company reported total revenue of ₹996.43 crore for the financial year ended March 2026. Its operations remain heavily concentrated in IT-enabled services, with tax services contributing 50% of turnover and Central Recordkeeping Agency services accounting for 31%.

Environmental Performance

Protean achieved a significant reduction in its carbon footprint during FY26. Total Scope 1 emissions fell to 147 metric tonnes of CO2 equivalent from 282 metric tonnes in FY25. Scope 2 emissions dropped sharply to 63 metric tonnes from 239 metric tonnes.

The company attributed this decline to sourcing green power, which now accounts for 94% of its energy needs. This initiative helped avert 1,852 tCO2e emissions. Additionally, energy intensity per rupee of turnover improved to 0.000000975 GJ/INR from 0.000001098 GJ/INR in the previous year.

What the Numbers Show

While operational emissions decreased significantly, Scope 3 emissions—which include value chain activities—remained substantial at 9,567 metric tonnes of CO2 equivalent. This figure represents the vast majority of the company's total carbon impact, dwarfing the combined Scope 1 and 2 total of 210 metric tonnes. This divergence suggests that while direct operational efficiency has improved, the broader supply chain remains the primary driver of the company's environmental footprint.

Social and Governance Metrics

Protean employed 1,917 individuals as of the end of FY26, comprising 839 permanent employees and 1,078 non-permanent staff. The workforce is predominantly male (67%) with female representation at 33%.

The company reported a permanent employee turnover rate of 13.3% in FY26, up from 11.1% in FY25. Despite the rise, Protean maintained a 100% return-to-work rate for employees who took parental leave.

On the governance front, the company received 1,85,875 customer complaints during the year, with 1,521 pending resolution at year-end. No complaints were recorded regarding sexual harassment, discrimination, or data privacy breaches.
