Varroc Engineering Limited submitted its Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) for the financial year 2025-26 to the stock exchanges on July 28, 2026. The filing, which covers standalone operations, reveals that renewable energy constituted 45% of the company’s total electricity consumption and 36% of its overall energy mix. This disclosure provides stakeholders with a comprehensive view of the automotive component manufacturer’s environmental footprint, social governance structures, and operational sustainability metrics for FY2025-26.

The submission was signed by Anil Ghatiya, Company Secretary & Compliance Officer, and references Regulation 34(2)(f) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. Varroc is currently voluntarily reporting under the BRSR framework as it does not fall within the mandatory compliance category based on market capitalization rankings. The company noted that while it has initiated internal ESG assessments and audits, it does not yet have an independent external assurance provider for these disclosures.

Environmental Performance

Varroc reported a total energy consumption of 754,885.32 GJ for FY2025-26, an increase from 632,668.20 GJ in the previous year. Renewable sources contributed 259,406.79 GJ to this total. The company has installed solar rooftop systems at over 90% of its plants and procures additional renewable energy through open access mechanisms. Water management initiatives include the implementation of Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) at five specific plants: VEL VII, VEL P5, VEL P8, VEL P14, and VEL-BH(4W). Additionally, 45% of withdrawn water is recycled and reused for gardening and utility activities.

Social and Governance Metrics

The report details a workforce of 3,504 permanent and non-permanent employees and 25,117 workers. Women constitute 6.9% of the employee base and 25% of the worker base. The Board of Directors includes one independent woman director, representing 25% of the independent board members. Training coverage reached 50% of the Board, 89% of Key Management Personnel, 83% of other employees, and 100% of workers during the fiscal year. No penalties, fines, or imprisonment orders were recorded against the entity or its directors in FY2025-26.

What the Numbers Show

The data indicates a significant scaling of operational intensity alongside sustainability efforts. While total energy consumption rose by approximately 19% year-on-year, the absolute volume of renewable energy increased substantially, allowing the company to maintain a high renewable share despite higher overall demand. Waste generation increased by nearly 32%, from 12,375 MT to 16,288 MT, driven largely by non-hazardous waste, suggesting that production volume growth is outpacing waste reduction initiatives. The company’s focus on ZLD and water recycling appears to be a strategic response to this operational expansion, aiming to decouple growth from freshwater dependency.
