Missing CA's funeral: EY India chair says won't happen again
Business Standard|September 21, 2024
Rajiv Memani, chairperson of consultancy EY India, has expressed regret for missing Anna Sebastian Perayil's funeral and said it "will never happen again".
RAGHAV AGGARWAI:

In a post on LinkedIn on Thursday evening, Memani wrote that he was "deeply saddened" by Anna's death and "can only imagine" her mother's grief. Anna's mother, Anita Augustine, had written to Memani about the work conditions at EY India and how she believed they contributed to her daughter's death.

Anna died in July in Pune, four months after joining S R Batliboi, a member firm of EY Global.

"Anna would return to her room utterly exhausted, sometimes collapsing on the bed without even changing her clothes, only to be bombarded with messages asking for more reports. She was putting in her best efforts, working very hard to meet the deadlines," Augustine wrote in her letter.
