Shalby Limited submitted its Business Responsibility & Sustainability Report (BRSR) for FY26 to the National Stock Exchange of India Ltd and BSE Limited on August 17, 2026. The filing, mandated under Regulation 34(2)(f) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, outlines the company’s environmental, social, and governance performance for the financial year ended March 31, 2026.
Environmental Performance
The healthcare provider reported measurable progress in energy efficiency during FY26. Total electricity consumed from non-renewable sources decreased by 12.05 TJ, or 16.75%, from 71.93 TJ in FY25 to 59.88 TJ in FY26. This reduction was driven by energy optimization initiatives, including motion sensor-based lighting controls and operational monitoring of HVAC systems.
Conversely, total fuel consumption increased by 0.63 TJ (43.45%) to 2.08 TJ from 1.45 TJ in the prior year, attributed to higher diesel generator usage across select hospital units. Despite the rise in fuel use, total energy consumption declined by 11.42 TJ (15.56%) to 61.96 TJ. Consequently, energy intensity per rupee of turnover improved by approximately 18.4%, falling from 8.45 × 10⁻⁹ TJ/₹ in FY25 to 6.90 × 10⁻⁹ TJ/₹ in FY26.
| Metric: | FY26 | FY25 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Non-renewable Electricity: | 59.88 TJ | 71.93 TJ | -16.75% |
| Fuel Consumption: | 2.08 TJ | 1.45 TJ | +43.45% |
| Total Energy: | 61.96 TJ | 73.38 TJ | -15.56% |
| Energy Intensity (TJ/₹): | 6.90 × 10⁻⁹ | 8.45 × 10⁻⁹ | -18.4% |
Water withdrawal increased by 28.67% to 3,42,267.96 KL from 2,66,015 KL in FY25, reflecting expanded operational scale. Biomedical waste generated decreased marginally by 0.72% to 228.44 metric tonnes from 230.09 metric tonnes. All biomedical waste was disposed of through authorized agencies in compliance with the Bio-Medical Waste Management Rules, 2016.
Social Metrics and Governance
The company employed 2,838 permanent employees as of March 31, 2026, comprising 55.36% males and 44.64% females. The turnover rate for permanent employees stood at 35.99% in FY26, compared to 35.45% in FY25 and 34.90% in FY24.
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) spending for FY26 totaled ₹32.18 million. The company’s net worth as on March 31, 2026, was ₹12,469.39 million, against a turnover of ₹8,985.57 million. No differently abled employees were onboarded during the year, though the company affirmed its commitment to equal employment opportunities.
What the Numbers Show
The divergence between rising fuel consumption and falling grid electricity usage indicates a shift in energy sourcing at the facility level, likely due to backup power reliance rather than structural changes. While water intensity rose alongside operational expansion, the significant improvement in energy intensity suggests that capital expenditures on LED lighting and HVAC insulation are yielding efficiency gains relative to revenue growth.
