Chalet Hotels has filed its Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) for FY26 with stock exchanges. The disclosure, dated August 29, 2026, details the company’s environmental, social, and governance performance alongside its consolidated financial statements.
The report covers operations across 11 hotel properties and one corporate office in India. It outlines progress on climate commitments, including renewable energy sourcing and electric vehicle adoption.
Sustainability Performance
Chalet Hotels reported sourcing 61% of its electricity from renewable sources during FY26, moving toward its RE100 target of 100% renewable energy by 2030. The company achieved an 82% improvement in energy productivity compared to its 2016 baseline, supporting its EP100 commitment to double this metric by 2028.
Key Environmental Metrics
| Metric | FY26 | FY25 |
|---|---|---|
| Renewable Energy Share | 61% | Not Disclosed |
| Energy Intensity (GJ/million ₹) | 10.74 | 15.84 |
| Water Intensity (kl/million ₹) | 24.47 | 37.96 |
Total energy consumption rose to 3,01,961.05 GJ from 2,72,160.35 GJ in the prior year. Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions increased to 22,353.89 tCO₂e, up from 20,280.49 tCO₂e. However, emission intensity per rupee of turnover fell to 0.79 tCO₂e/million ₹ from 1.18 tCO₂e/million ₹, indicating improved operational efficiency relative to revenue generation.
Social & Governance Highlights
The company employs 1,535 permanent employees and 1,965 workers. All permanent staff received health and accident insurance coverage. Training programs covered 100% of employees and workers on topics including safety, ethics, and diversity.
Chalet Hotels became the first hospitality brand to achieve the Climate Group’s EV100 commitment ahead of its 2025 target by transitioning its entire guest transportation fleet to electric vehicles. The board includes one female director, representing 11.11% of the total membership.
What the Numbers Show
While absolute energy consumption and carbon emissions rose year-on-year, intensity metrics improved significantly. Energy intensity dropped from 15.84 GJ/million ₹ to 10.74 GJ/million ₹, and water intensity fell from 37.96 kl/million ₹ to 24.47 kl/million ₹. This divergence suggests that revenue growth outpaced resource usage, reflecting gains in operational efficiency despite higher overall consumption volumes.
