Once filed, your BRSR is public, searchable, and comparable.

It is:

• Read by analysts

• Parsed by ESG rating agencies

• Referenced by lenders

• Cross-checked by regulators

The NSE has already highlighted recurring inconsistencies in BRSR filings, including:

• Energy figures disclosed in one section and contradicted in another

• Employee totals not reconciling across tables

• Waste recovered exceeding waste generated

• Deviations between PDF and XBRL submissions

These gaps are rarely intentional. They occur because the BRSR is assembled across finance, HR, sustainability, legal, and operations — often under deadline pressure, using different systems, units, and definitions.

If a gap existed last year, it likely remains in the process today.

Before you submit your BRSR this year, review what is already on record.
