Mastek discloses a blanket policy that it "does not campaign for, support or offer any funds or property as a donation or otherwise to any political party or independent political office candidate" and that it "did not make any contributions to and spending for political campaigns, political organizations, lobbyists or lobbying organizations, trade associations and other tax-exempt groups"; this statement indicates the company seeks to avoid both direct and indirect lobbying or political influence. By declaring it will "strive to preclude any activity or conduct which could be interpreted as a favor to and from any political party or person," the company provides a high-level commitment intended to align its external engagement with this no-lobbying stance, which demonstrates a limited form of governance. However, the disclosure stops short of describing any oversight structure, review mechanism, named individual, or board committee responsible for ensuring the policy is implemented, and it offers no information on how compliance is monitored or reported, nor any reference to climate-specific lobbying considerations. Therefore, while a basic policy is in place, transparency about governance processes, monitoring, and accountability is not provided.
