Continuing its growth spree, CalSoft broke the 50cr barrier in 2012-2013 and is on track to break the 100cr barrier next financial year.With its work force tripling from 150 employees in 2011 to over 550, Calsoft has no plans to slow down. Its upcoming facility in Bavdhanis planned in two stages. The first stage will be complete this quarter and will house all the 500+ employees. At the end of 2nd stage, it is expected to accommodate over 1200 engineers. Hinjewadi being an IT hub of Pune, CalSoft decided to expand there with a new office to diversify into a new niche.

On the occasion, Dr Anupam Bhide, CEO, Calsoft said, “It is an exciting move for Calsoft, and we look at this new location as the new milestone in our growth story. I want to thank Calsoft staff for their support through the years and with the move.” He further added, “We are growing and need a bigger space to house our employees. As part of our long term strategy, we want to diversify in new areas and we chose Hinjewadi to expand as this area has undergone a real transformation in past few years, becoming the IT hub of Pune.”

Calsoft truly believes that growth is for everyone hence determined to help less privileged sections of the society to grow with them.The primary goal of CSR is to enable class mobility. It is necessary to help less privileged sections of society to move up and to lead more meaningful life. With a consistent focus towards CSR, Calsoft supported engineering students who excelled in their academics but needed financial aid to complete their graduation. Today, as they are graduates these students are working for many well-known software companies all over the country. Being an active and a responsible company, Calsoft gives back to the society with its Scholarship programs which provides financial aid to academically strong students who are in need of financial assistance to complete their basic degree in Engineering. A few of them who are now settled well and are working in companies all over the country. Ever since its inception, under the Calsoft Scholarship Program (CSP), the company has helped more than 75 students till date.

Speaking to the CFO and Co-Founder, Mrs.Sharmila  Bhide, says “Every company initiates the CSR program, but we at Calsoft believe in delivering value, by ensuring the student maintains good scores throughout its academic years to be eligible to be funded further. This motivates the students to put in their 200% and in the longer run we impart knowledge that would always help them in life”

Calsoft also initiates yearly drives to NGOs like Manavya, which is among the first few NGOs in India to understand the ramifications of HIV/AIDS epidemic, and manages a bunch of 70 kids — all of them special in their own ways despite of being HIV infected. During Christmas very year, Calsoft visits Manavya and helps bring a smile on their faces. It’s said don’t feed the needy; teach them to fish, which will help them much more than just a onetime meal.
