India’s Most Sustainable Companies 2025 Awards
Recognizing India Inc.’s Boldest Organisations in ESG Performance, Transparency & Innovation
The India’s Most Sustainable Companies (IMSC) Awards stand as one of India’s most credible recognitions for corporate excellence in sustainability. Presented at the conclusion of the 8th Sustainable World Conclave, these awards will celebrate organisations that have embedded environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles at the core of their strategy and operations — not just in policy, but in measurable action and long-term vision.
Through this platform, we spotlight companies that are redefining value creation by aligning profitability with purpose and resilience with responsibility.
About the IMSC Initiative
Each year, we conduct a comprehensive, data-backed evaluation of India’s largest companies, assessing their ESG performance through a proprietary multi-phase framework. This robust process identifies and ranks the organizations that are setting new standards in environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and ethical governance.
The IMSC initiative is not just about disclosure — it’s about recognizing companies that demonstrate real impact, strategic integration, and future-readiness in how they do business.
