EMS Limited filed its Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) for FY26 with the BSE and NSE on September 1, 2026. The disclosure covers standalone performance across environmental, social, and governance parameters.

The infrastructure firm reported a turnover of ₹60,810.21 lakh and a net worth of ₹1,03,872.53 lakh for the period. Operations remain concentrated in water supply and sewerage services, which contributed 63.51% of total turnover, while construction activities accounted for 36.42%.

What the Numbers Show

A notable shift in related-party transactions is visible in the filing. Sales to related parties rose sharply from 9.00% of total sales in FY25 to 22.00% in FY26. Conversely, purchases from related parties declined from 7.00% to 6.00%. This divergence suggests a heavier reliance on internal group entities for revenue generation during the current fiscal year.

Environmental Metrics

The company disclosed significant energy consumption figures for FY26. Total energy consumed stood at 2,94,69,745.07 megajoules, up from 2,67,22,351.78 megajoules in FY25. This increase drove energy intensity per rupee of turnover to 0.004846 MJ/Rs, compared to 0.002841 MJ/Rs in the prior year.

Greenhouse gas emissions also saw movement. Scope 1 emissions totaled 3,158.67 metric tonnes of CO2 equivalent, slightly higher than the 3,124.22 metric tonnes recorded in FY25. Scope 2 emissions were minimal at 52.65 metric tonnes. The entity noted it does not currently have projects specifically aimed at reducing GHG emissions but plans to explore sustainable initiatives.

Social and Governance

On the social front, EMS Limited reported a permanent employee count of 624, with 98.08% being male. The turnover rate for permanent employees was 31.13% in FY26, an increase from 28.46% in FY25. Safety records remained clean, with zero lost-time injuries or fatalities reported for both employees and workers.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) spending exceeded statutory obligations. The company spent ₹701.34 lakh on education and healthcare initiatives in FY25. This excess amount was settled off against the FY26 CSR obligation of ₹393.99 lakh, as approved by the Board.
