Birlasoft x sRide: Celebrating Sustainability Champions on World Environment Day 2026
On June 10, 2026, Birlasoft did something that every sustainability-first company should do: they put their best carpoolers on stage.
In a celebration that went beyond posters and pledges, Birlasoft marked World Environment Day 2026 by recognising and honouring its top sRide carpooling champions — employees who turned sustainable commuting into a daily discipline. They received certificates and saplings, symbolic of the very habits that make a greener future possible.
The event was graced by Mr. Yogesh Faijpurkar, Associate Director – Facilities & Logistics Management (FLM), and Mr. Amit Agarwal, Co-Founder & CTO, sRide — who together applauded the participants for making eco-friendly commuting a part of their everyday lives.

💬 Words from sRide’s Co-Founder & CTO
Amit Agarwal, Co-Founder & CTO — sRide, at the Birlasoft World Environment Day event
“Small consistent actions — like sharing a ride to work — compound into something extraordinary over a year. What Birlasoft’s carpooling champions have done is prove that sustainability isn’t a policy. It’s a personal choice made every single morning.“
With 3M+ users and 70M+ rides completed, sRide is proud to be the world’s largest carpooling platform — started in 2014 by Lakshna Jha (CEO) and Amit Agarwal (CTO), with a shared vision to make carpooling the default commute choice across India.
