An ESG score assigned from outside

The communication says NSE Sustainability Ratings and Analytics Limited, described as a SEBI-registered Category I ESG Rating Provider, has assigned an ESG Score of 65 with the rating category 'Aspiring' for FY 2026.

For FY 2025, the ESG score mentioned is 64.

The rating has two parts: a number, 65, and a category word, 'Aspiring'.

Where the rating came from

• The company states it has not engaged the rating agency for any such ESG rating.
• The rating agency assigned the rating independently and voluntarily, as per its own criteria and methodology.
• The agency's assessment is based on information available in the public domain.

What ESG means, in plain terms

ESG stands for Environmental, Social and Governance. It is a way of looking at how a company manages its impact on the environment, how it deals with employees, communities and customers, and how its board and management are run. Rating agencies score companies on these parameters and publish a number and a category.

Why the wording about who asked for the rating matters

Because the company says it did not commission the rating, this is an unsolicited score. External agencies can assign such scores on their own, using publicly available information rather than data or explanations provided by the company. Readers may keep this in mind while reading the score and the category.

The numbers to note

• ESG Score for FY 2026: 65, rating category 'Aspiring'
• ESG Score for FY 2025: 64

The score has moved from 64 to 65 between the two years mentioned.

What the company has said it will do

• The communication is to be uploaded on the company's website, www.grasim.com.
• The letter is issued by the Company Secretary and Compliance Officer and is marked to the stock exchanges, the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and depositary and custodial services.

How to read this

An ESG score is not a financial result and does not change revenue, profit or debt. It is an external view of non-financial performance. For a retail investor, it is one more data point about how the company is seen on environmental, social and governance matters, and it is useful mainly when tracked over time and alongside the agency's own methodology.
