Belding India Limited filed its inaugural Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) for FY26 on September 8, 2026. The disclosure was made voluntarily, as the company is not currently subject to SEBI’s mandatory BRSR thresholds.

The report covers the financial year ending March 31, 2026. However, the company noted that business activities commenced only in March 2026. Consequently, the data reflects a limited initial operating period, with several policies and monitoring systems still under development.

Operational Baseline

The company operates across engineering, EPC solutions, defence, data centres, and energy storage. For the reporting period, 100% of turnover came from engineering and manufacturing activities. The consolidated entity includes subsidiaries such as DC&T Global Private Limited and BESS Limited.

As of the end of FY26, the workforce consisted of 10 employees and 15 workers. All permanent employees received health insurance coverage, while no workers were covered under health or accident insurance schemes during this initial phase.

Environmental Metrics

The report provides baseline environmental data for the short operational window. Total energy consumption stood at 22,860 megajoules, sourced entirely from non-renewable electricity and fuel.

Greenhouse gas emissions were recorded as follows:

Water withdrawal was limited to 5.63 kilolitres from third-party sources, with 3.125 kilolitres discharged after secondary treatment. The facility aims for zero liquid discharge in future phases.

Governance and Compliance

The company reported one monetary penalty of ₹10,000 imposed by the BSE for a delay in furnishing prior intimation about a Board meeting. No complaints related to bribery, corruption, or human rights violations were recorded during the period.

What the Numbers Show

Scope 1 emissions account for approximately 86% of total reported greenhouse gas emissions (Scope 1 plus Scope 2). This indicates that direct operational emissions, likely from fuel consumption and backup generators, are the primary environmental impact driver at this stage, outweighing indirect electricity-related emissions.
