In a world where climate action is often weighed against short-term economic trade-offs, Mahindra Group has chosen a different path — one rooted in long-term value, cross-sectoral impact, and a deep sense of responsibility. At the heart of this mission is Ankit Todi, Chief Sustainability Officer, who is helping steer the Group’s vision of a truly “Planet Positive” future.
In this insightful exchange, Ankit discusses how Mahindra balances growth and sustainability across its diverse businesses — from farm equipment and real estate to logistics and energy — while staying grounded in its core purpose. He offers sharp perspectives on how Indian industry can accelerate climate tech adoption, drive inclusive low-carbon growth, and contribute meaningfully to global climate platforms.
What emerges is a vision that’s both ambitious and deeply human — one that understands the power of collaboration, policy alignment, and authentic leadership. For Ankit, sustainability isn’t a siloed function — it’s a lens through which every decision is made.
As climate change becomes one of the defining geopolitical and economic challenges of our time, this conversation is a timely reminder that the private sector has a critical role to play — not just in delivering cleaner technologies, but in helping shape a more resilient, equitable world.
