HUMAN RESOURCES
Growing with Our People

As our business expanded across India, so did our people
footprint. As on March 31, 2026, our workforce grew to
12,357 employees, up from 10,115 in the previous year-each
individual contributing to our journey of growth, service, and
brand building.

At the heart of this growth is a simple belief: our people
are our greatest strength. Over the past year, our focus has
been on building not just capability, but also connection and
culture —laying the foundation for a resilient, future-ready
organization. We remain committed to fostering a high-
performance, inclusive, and engaging workplace that enables
our employees to thrive and contribute meaningfully to the
Company's success.

Our efforts during the year were anchored around three
priorities: Strengthening People, Strengthening Culture, and
Strengthening Processes.

Strengthening People: Building Capability for
Tomorrow

This year, we invested deeply in shaping a strong leadership
pipeline across levels.

From frontline teams to emerging and experienced leaders,
our programs were designed to go beyond traditional training—
focusing instead on self-discovery, real-world application
through sustained development journeys.

Our frontline talent continued to grow through the Rewarding
Ace Performance (RAP) program, which has consistently
created success stories—transforming team members into
Restaurant General Managers and Area Leads.

For managerial capability, Wings supported first-time
managers in transitioning into leadership roles, while Eklavya
enabled experienced managers to sharpen their leadership
effectiveness. These journeys were complemented by
leadership assessments, development centres, and structured
Individual Development Plans—ensuring that potential is not
just identified, but actively nurtured.

Learning Beyond the Workplace

We also recognized that growth doesn't stop at the workplace.
Many of our frontline employees have paused their formal
education due to personal circumstances. This year too we
created pathways for them to resume their academic journeys
alongside work.

At the same time, partnerships with reputed institutions
enabled mid-level managers to pursue higher education¬
helping them grow both professionally and personally.

Creating Opportunities for All

Through Taare Humare, we continued our commitment to
inclusion by creating meaningful opportunities for differently
abled individuals - enriching our teams with diverse
perspectives and strengthening our belief that talent comes
in many forms.

Strengthening Culture: Creating a Workplace Where
People Belong

As we grew in scale, we remained equally focused on
strengthening the fabric that binds us together—our pillars

- Hunger, Humility, Hardwork, Sense of Urgency and
Ownership Mentality.

Recognizing that the first few weeks shape long-term
engagement, My First Bite focused on creating a warm and
engaging onboarding experience and
BK Allyship Program

- where a buddy is assigned to each new joiner to help
assimilation especially during the critical early days of an
employee's journey.

We have built a multi-layered listening architecture where
employees feel heard, valued, and connected. We are
committed to continuous listening through internal/ External
touchpoints. Platforms such as
Chai Pe Charcha and Coffee
with Managers
that encourage open conversations across
skip-level meetings with Leadership. BK Buddy evolved into a
strong listening mechanism—helping us act meaningfully on
employee feedback.

During the year, the Company was recognized as a Great Place
to Work® Certified™
organization—an affirmation of our
deep commitment to strengthening our people and culture.
Based on an independent assessment of workplace practices
and employee feedback, this recognition reflects the high-
trust, inclusive, and engaging environment we continue to
build together.

Our belief in listening with intent continues to shape this
journey. We actively track recurring themes and employee
concerns, and translate these insights into more responsive
policies, sharper communication, and thoughtful interventions.
This continuous feedback loop enables us to strengthen not
just our processes, but also the everyday experiences of our
people—making our workplace more connected, empowering,
and future-ready.

At the same time, we made conscious efforts to build a culture
of appreciation. Through I Shine and the CEO's Recognition
Badge, we celebrated individuals who brought our values to
life—reinforcing pride, motivation, and a sense of belonging.

We also promote a culture of well-being by encouraging
leaders and teams to take regular breaks, recharge, and adopt
sustainable ways of working.

Strengthening Processes: Enabling Scale withSimplicity

Behind every strong people experience is a set of processes
that work seamlessly.

During the year, we continued to simplify and strengthen our
HR processes—driving digitization, improving governance, and
enhancing the overall employee lifecycle experience.

From onboarding to development to compliance, our focus
was on making processes more efficient, transparent, and
scalable, in line with our growing business.

We also reinforced our commitment to a safe and respectful
workplace through strong compliance frameworks, regular
awareness initiatives, and adherence to statutory requirements
like POSH, FCPA, Insider Trading.

Looking Ahead

As we look to the future, our focus remains clear—to build
an organization where people grow, feel connected, and do
their best work.
