Excellence in Business Responsibility and Sustainability Reporting
The Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) is organizing the ICAI Sustainability Reporting Awards 2023-24 to celebrate Excellence in Business Responsibility and Sustainability Reporting (BRSR). These awards honor organizations that demonstrate exceptional commitment to sustainable practices, aligning with global standards and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). With categories based on market capitalization—Large-Cap (Rs 20,000 crore or more), Mid-Cap (Rs 5,000 crore to Rs 20,000 crore), and Small-Cap (below Rs 5,000 crore)—and distinguishing between Manufacturing and Service Sector organizations, the awards recognize sustainability leaders across industries. Additionally, a category acknowledges organizations that voluntarily disclose BRSR, even when not mandated by SEBI. ICAI’s rigorous three-tier evaluation process, involving a Technical Review, a Shield Panel, and a Jury, will evaluate the quality, transparency, and societal impact of each report. Nominations are open until 15th November 2024.
