How ESG and BRSR Reporting Build Corporate Trust in India

Introduction

In today’s rapidly evolving business world, transparency and accountability have become key indicators of corporate success.
Beyond profits, stakeholders now ask: “What impact does your organization have on people and the planet?”

This is where ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) and BRSR (Business Responsibility and Sustainability Reporting) come in — frameworks that help companies measure, report, and improve their sustainability performance.

At Earth Carbon Foundation, we help organizations align their ESG and BRSR initiatives with verified carbon data, ensuring every sustainability claim is backed by evidence.

What Is ESG Reporting?

ESG Reporting is the process of disclosing how a company performs in three key areas:

  • Environmental: Energy use, waste management, emissions reduction, and resource efficiency.

  • Social: Employee welfare, community engagement, diversity, and inclusion.

  • Governance: Ethics, transparency, board accountability, and compliance.

These reports allow investors, regulators, and customers to evaluate a company’s long-term resilience and ethical impact.

What Is BRSR (Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report)?

Introduced by SEBI (Securities and Exchange Board of India), the BRSR format has become mandatory for the top 1,000 listed companies in India.
It ensures businesses disclose their environmental and social performance with standardized indicators — covering emissions, water use, waste, and employee welfare.

The Earth Carbon Foundation supports BRSR reporting through its data-backed sustainability verification tools, ensuring that every metric reported is authentic, auditable, and traceable.

Building Corporate Trust Through Transparency

Corporate trust today is earned through honesty and measurable progress.
When organizations disclose their sustainability data transparently — supported by certifications and verified carbon metrics — they build a long-term reputation as leaders in responsible business.

“Transparency is the new currency of trust. ESG and BRSR are not just compliance tools—they’re roadmaps to corporate credibility.”
