Supplementing the efforts of the Indian government to achieve a net-zero emission target by 2070, as many as 51 per cent of the top-100 companies have started making disclosures on a voluntary basis about carbon emissions, says a PwC India survey.
The survey further said that about 31 per cent of the respondent companies have disclosed their net-zero targets. The government and the regulators have introduced new regulations pertaining to ESG (environmental, social and governance) for businesses. India’s transition to BRSR Core positions the nation as a frontrunner in the global transition towards a more credible and transparent sustainability reporting landscape.
51 per cent of India’s top 100 listed companies by market capitalisation disclosed their Scope 3 data for FY23 despite it being a voluntary disclosure in Business Responsibility and Sustainability Reporting (BRSR),” said the report, ‘Navigating India’s Transition to Sustainability.
