Anunta has been conferred with the CIO CHOICE 2026 Trust Seal, Honor and Recognition as the Most Trusted ICT Brand in two categories:

1. Data Center Infrastructure Management

2. Desktop Virtualization

The recognition is based on nominations and votes by CIOs and Digital Leaders across India, reaffirming Anunta’s continued trust and relevance among enterprise technology decision-makers.

Now in its 14th year, CIO CHOICE is regarded as India’s most credible and independent barometer of ICT brand trust. The platform recognizes organizations that consistently earn CIO confidence through dependable performance, enterprise-grade delivery, and sustained innovation, validated solely by the CIO community.

The CIO CHOICE 2026 recognition was presented at the prestigious 14th Annual CIO CHOICE Red Carpet Night, produced by CORE Media, with KPMG as the Knowledge Partner. The event brought together over 300 CIOs and Digital Leaders from across industries, reinforcing CIO CHOICE’s position as the definitive benchmark of enterprise trust in the ICT ecosystem.

The CIO CHOICE Gold Seal of Trust is unique in that brands are chosen directly by CIOs and IT Decision Makers who engage with these technologies on a day-to-day basis. The selection process is driven by a pan-India voting platform, where CIOs and Digital Leaders nominate and vote based on firsthand experience, performance consistency, and top-of-mind recall. The entire process is guided by an eminent advisory panel of senior technology leaders. This year’s advisory panel consisted of 9 distinguished CIOs and Digital Technology leaders –

1. Aarti Singh, Enterprise CIO, Mahindra Group

2. Goutam Datta, CIDO, Bajaj Life

3. Jayant Goyal, CIO, Coforge

4. Prosenjit Sengupta, Group CDIO, ITC

5. Rajiv Arora, Global Head of IT Hubs (Regions) & Regional Countries, Siemens

6. Ravi Pichan, CIO and Head of Digital Banking, RBL Bank

7. Sampath Manickam, CTO, NSE India

8. Shiv Kumar Bhasin, Chief Transformation Officer, IndusInd Bank

9. Dr. Tapan Sahoo, Executive Officer – Digital Enterprise, Information & Cyber Security, Maruti Suzuki

“Being recognized with the CIO CHOICE 2026 Trust Seal underscores the confidence that India’ s CIO community places in Anunta. This distinction reflects the brand’s ability to stay

As enterprises navigate rapid business transformation, Anunta has emerged as a trusted partner by consistently aligning innovation and high-performance delivery with real business outcomes.

This recognition marks yet another milestone in Anunta’s journey of sustained trust. Anunta has been a consistent winner at CIO CHOICE in previous years, underscoring long-term confidence in its capabilities across digital workspace and infrastructure domains.

Commenting on the recognition, Sivakumar Ramamurthy, CEO, Anunta, said:

“Winning the CIO CHOICE 2026 Trust Seal in Data Center Infrastructure Management and Desktop Virtualization is a strong validation of the trust CIOs place in Anunta year after year. This recognition reflects our focus on dependable execution, operational depth, and outcomes that matter to enterprises.
