This report from the Just Transition Finance Lab highlights key indicators relevant to the just transition from the homegrown Business Responsibility Sustainability Reporting (BRSR) in India and creates a tool that investors and companies can use to signal just transition activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on 2023–24 BRSR disclosures by companies, the report applies its methodology to companies in the steel, cement, power and mining sectors. It analyses how each company demonstrates actions and achievements against the International Labour Organization’s just transition indicators, and where they could make improvements, mapped against the relevant BRSR principles. This illustrates how investors and companies could use information from the BRSR to assess relevant corporate just transition-related activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
