Purpose and Rationale

The report marks Crompton's first comprehensive sustainability disclosure, reaffirming commitment to creating long-term sustainable value for all stakeholders. It provides an overview of ESG governance framework, climate commitments, environmental performance, social impact initiatives, and sustainability-related achievements.

Financial and Operational Impact

The report demonstrates decoupling of growth from environmental impact through:

  • 23% reduction in operational GHG emissions despite revenue growth
  • 38% use-phase emission intensity reduction per ceiling fan sold vs FY 2021-22 baseline
  • 21% renewable energy share in operations, up from 0.05% in previous year
  • Maintenance of Zero Waste to Landfill across manufacturing operations

Capital Structure Impact

No direct impact on capital structure disclosed. Company maintains zero-debt balance sheet.

Forward-looking Commitments

  • 50% GHG Scope 1 & 2 emission reduction by 2035 (2022 baseline)
  • 60% use-phase emission intensity reduction per unit sale (ceiling fan) by 2035 (2022 baseline)
  • ECOLABEL certification for representative products across all product lines by 2030
  • Double Materiality Assessment to be completed in FY 2026-27

Assurance and Verification

Environmental performance indicators (energy, water, waste, GHG and air emissions) independently assured by TUV India Private Limited. GHG emission factors reference CEA CO₂ Baseline Database v21.0 (November 2025) and DEFRA UK Government GHG Conversion Factors (2025).
