First round was the Technical-cum-aptitude test.

The third round was another 1 on 1 technical interview(it was more of a discussion) which was a test of both problem solving ability and technical knowledge. In this I was asked a lot about my project.
The fourth round was the final round which was a HR round. I was asked to give a strong reason why I wanted to work for Persistent, my hobbies, my weaknesses, family background, etc.
