In recent years, the emphasis on corporate responsibility and sustainability has grown significantly. This shift is driven by the increasing awareness of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues among stakeholders, including investors, employees, customers, and regulators. Recognizing this trend, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) introduced the Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) as a comprehensive framework for companies to disclose their ESG performance.
Introduction to BRSR
The Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) is a detailed and structured disclosure framework designed by SEBI to replace the previous Business Responsibility Report (BRR). It aims to provide a more comprehensive and transparent view of a company’s ESG practices and performance. The BRSR framework aligns with global reporting standards such as the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs).
Objectives of BRSR
The primary objectives of the BRSR are:
- Enhancing Transparency: To provide a clear and detailed account of a company’s ESG activities and their impact.
- Benchmarking Performance: To help companies benchmark their ESG performance against industry standards and peers.
- Stakeholder Engagement: To facilitate better engagement with stakeholders by providing them with relevant and reliable ESG information.
- Driving Sustainability: To encourage companies to adopt sustainable practices and integrate ESG considerations into their business strategies.
Key Components of BRSR
The BRSR framework is divided into three main sections:
General Disclosures
This section includes basic information about the company, such as its:
- Corporate identity
- Products and services
- Markets served
- Employee details
- Financial performance
Management and Process Disclosures
This section focuses on the company’s management approach to ESG issues, including:
- Governance structure
- Policies and procedures related to ESG
- Risk management practices
- Stakeholder engagement processes
Principle-wise Performance
The third section is structured around nine principles of the National Guidelines on Responsible Business Conduct (NGRBC):
- Ethics, Transparency, and Accountability: Disclosure of ethical practices, anti-corruption measures, and transparency initiatives.
- Product Life Cycle Sustainability: Information on sustainable product design, production, and disposal.
- Employee Well-being: Data on employee health, safety, diversity, and inclusion.
- Stakeholder Engagement: Details on how the company engages with its stakeholders.
- Human Rights: Practices and policies related to human rights protection.
- Environment: Information on environmental impact, resource management, and climate change initiatives.
- Public and Regulatory Policy: Disclosure of advocacy and lobbying activities.
- Inclusive Growth and Development: Initiatives aimed at community development and inclusive growth.
- Customer Relations: Customer satisfaction, data privacy, and fair marketing practices.
Benefits of BRSR
Enhanced Investor Confidence
Investors are increasingly considering ESG factors in their investment decisions. A well-structured BRSR can enhance investor confidence by providing transparent and reliable ESG information, thereby attracting more sustainable investment.
Improved Risk Management
By identifying and disclosing ESG risks, companies can better manage these risks and mitigate potential negative impacts. This proactive approach can lead to more stable and resilient business operations.
Strengthened Stakeholder Relationships
Transparent ESG reporting fosters trust and strengthens relationships with stakeholders, including customers, employees, regulators, and the community. This can lead to improved reputation and brand loyalty.
Competitive Advantage
Companies that lead in ESG performance can gain a competitive edge by differentiating themselves in the market. This can translate into better market opportunities and customer preferences.
Regulatory Compliance
The BRSR framework helps companies comply with regulatory requirements, reducing the risk of legal and compliance issues. It also aligns with global reporting standards, facilitating international business operations.
Challenges in Implementing BRSR
Data Collection and Management
Collecting and managing ESG data can be challenging, especially for companies with diverse and widespread operations. Ensuring the accuracy and consistency of data across different business units and locations requires robust systems and processes.
Resource Allocation
Implementing BRSR requires significant resources, including time, money, and expertise. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find it particularly challenging to allocate these resources effectively.
Integrating ESG into Business Strategy
Integrating ESG considerations into the core business strategy involves cultural and organizational changes. This requires commitment from top management and effective communication across all levels of the organization.
Keeping Up with Evolving Standards
ESG reporting standards and frameworks are continuously evolving. Keeping up with these changes and ensuring compliance can be demanding for companies.

The beauty of your writing lies not only in the clarity of your ideas but in the way you allow those ideas to breathe and grow. Each sentence feels like a step forward, yet it’s not rushed. There’s time to pause and reflect between the lines, and in that space, the words take on a life of their own. It’s rare to find writing that feels so alive.
