BRSR compliance, green-bond advisory, climate-disclosure obligations, sustainability-litigation defence and supply-chain due-diligence under emerging Indian and EU frameworks.
ESG practice in India is in formative stages, with the regulatory architecture being built around the SEBI Business Responsibility and Sustainability Reporting (BRSR) framework for listed companies, the SEBI green-bonds framework for sustainable finance, the emerging climate-disclosure regime, and the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) which has cross-border application to Indian suppliers and subsidiaries.
Top 1000 listed companies disclosure under the SEBI BRSR framework.
Green-bond issuances under SEBI (Issue and Listing of Non-Convertible Securities) Regulations, 2021.
TCFD-aligned disclosure, Scope 1/2/3 reporting and assurance protocols.
Supply-chain due-diligence under CSDDD and emerging Indian frameworks.
The Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) is mandatory for the top 1,000 listed companies by market capitalisation. The framework covers nine principles — environment, social, governance — with quantitative and qualitative disclosure requirements. The firm advises on BRSR materiality assessment, disclosure-statement drafting and assurance protocols.
Green-bond issuances are governed by the SEBI (Issue and Listing of Non-Convertible Securities) Regulations, 2021 and the SEBI circulars on green-bond use of proceeds, disclosure and reporting. The firm advises on green-bond framework drafting, second-party-opinion engagement and post-issuance reporting.
Climate-disclosure obligations are crystallising around TCFD-aligned disclosure, with India-specific overlays. Scope 1, Scope 2 and (increasingly) Scope 3 emissions reporting are central. The firm advises on disclosure-statement drafting and the assurance protocols that increasingly accompany them.
The EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) has extra-territorial application to Indian suppliers of EU-located enterprises. The firm advises on supply-chain due-diligence frameworks, contractual cascading of sustainability obligations and remediation protocols.
