Electronics Mart Limited has filed its Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) for the financial year ended March 31, 2026. The submission, made pursuant to SEBI Listing Regulations, covers the company’s environmental, social, and governance performance across its standalone operations.
The report details the company’s operational footprint, which includes 237 stores and 14 warehouses nationwide. Electronics Mart India reported total turnover of ₹71,832.6 crore for FY26. The business remains heavily concentrated in the retail sector, which contributed 99.25% of the total turnover, while wholesale and e-commerce channels accounted for 0.68% and 0.07% respectively.
Workforce and Safety Metrics
The company employed a total of 5,536 individuals at the end of FY26, comprising 3,344 permanent employees and 2,192 non-permanent staff. The workforce is predominantly male, with women constituting 15.84% of the total employee base. Notably, female representation in permanent roles stood at 6.73%, while it was higher among non-permanent staff at 29.74%.
Safety records for the year were clean, with zero lost-time injuries, fatalities, or high-consequence work-related injuries reported. The company maintained a Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) of 0 per million person-hours worked. All permanent employees underwent health and safety training, achieving 100% coverage under these programs.
Environmental Performance
Energy consumption increased during the period, driven by operational expansion. Total energy consumed rose to 1,49,945.45 Giga Joules in FY26 from 1,35,464.24 GJ in the previous year. Non-renewable sources dominated the mix, accounting for 1,49,064.53 GJ, while renewable energy consumption reached 880.92 GJ.
Greenhouse gas emissions showed a divergent trend between scopes. Scope 1 emissions fell significantly to 779.42 metric tonnes of CO2 equivalent from 1,496.22 MTCO2e in FY25. In contrast, Scope 2 emissions rose to 27,305.52 MTCO2e from 25,061.94 MTCO2e. The company attributed Scope 1 reductions to initiatives such as solar power plant installations at seven locations and the adoption of energy-efficient LED lighting.
Water withdrawal decreased to 75,278.31 kilolitres from 81,878.63 KL in FY25, primarily sourced from third-party suppliers. Total water consumption dropped to 15,055.66 KL from 16,375.73 KL, reflecting improved efficiency metrics despite higher overall energy usage.
Governance and Compliance
Electronics Mart India reported receiving 880 customer complaints during FY26, an increase from 667 in the prior year. All complaints were resolved within the year, leaving no pending cases. The issues primarily related to product functionality, stock availability, and after-sales service. No complaints were received regarding data privacy, advertising, or cybersecurity breaches.
The company confirmed that all policies covering the nine NGRBC principles have been approved by the Board and extended to value chain partners. An independent limited assurance on core BRSR indicators was provided by Vinay and Keshava LLP, confirming compliance with SEBI reporting criteria.
What the Numbers Show
The divergence between declining Scope 1 emissions and rising Scope 2 emissions indicates that while direct operational efficiencies (such as reduced diesel usage via solar adoption) are yielding results, indirect emissions from purchased electricity remain a growing component of the carbon footprint. This suggests that future decarbonization efforts may need to focus on grid-mix improvements or further expansion of on-site renewable generation to offset rising electrical demand.
