ABSTRACT


This article explore the terrain of India’s ESG regulation and interrogates whether the prevailing legal system secures meaningful accountability and transparency from firms. It maintains that ESG reporting is no fleeting trend, but instead provides structured, evidence-based insights into corporate longevity that lie beyond conventional balance-sheet figures. By tracing the trajectory of domestic ESG rule-making, the study demonstrates how globally accepted frameworks—PRI, GRI, TCFD—have quietly and significantly influenced local practice, most visibly through the SEBI- enforced requirement of the Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report.
