What the update says
- CRISIL ESG Ratings & Analytics Limited has assigned an ESG rating of 63.
- CRISIL has also assigned a core ESG Rating of 79.
- CRISIL intimated the stock exchanges about this rating on October 08, 2026.

- The company states the rating and report were prepared independently by CRISIL, based on information available in the public domain.
What an ESG rating is
ESG stands for Environmental, Social and Governance. An ESG rating is a score given by an outside agency on how a company performs on these three areas. It is not a financial result such as revenue, profit or order book, and it is worked out by the rating agency rather than by the company itself.
The two scores
- The 63 is described in the update as an "ESG rating".
- The 79 is described as a "core ESG Rating".
Both appear as scores. They are not shown as percentages, rupee amounts or grades.
Who commissioned it
A point the company highlights is that it did not appoint CRISIL to prepare the rating or the report. The rating and report, as stated in the update, were independently prepared by CRISIL from information available in the public domain. In other words, this disclosure is the company passing on a rating that CRISIL has already shared with the stock exchanges.
How a retail investor can read this
- This is an informational update about an external assessment of the company's environmental, social and governance profile.
- The disclosure carries no financial figures such as income, capital expenditure, orders or dividend.
- The perception it can create is that the company's ESG performance has been assessed by an outside agency, with scores of 63 and 79 as the outcome.
- Investors who track ESG-themed indices, funds or mandates may find the scores relevant; others may see it as routine disclosure.
What stays unchanged
Nothing in this update alters the company's financial statements, its projects or its share capital. The update is a rating disclosure, and the two scores of 63 and 79 are the quantitative takeaways from it.
