The score corresponds to an ‘A+’ ESG Rating, placing Ashoka Buildcon within the ‘Leader’ category, recognising its ongoing efforts towards strengthening environmental, social and governance practices. Ashoka Buildcon Limited, one of India’s leading highway developers and infrastructure companies, was evaluated through Resurgent ESG’s comprehensive ESG assessment framework. The assessment considered the company’s environmental and social impacts arising from its infrastructure development activities, alongside the strength of its governance practices and their role in supporting responsible business conduct and sustainable value creation. ABL undertakes infrastructure development through Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC), Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT), and Hybrid Annuity Model (HAM) projects. Commenting on the rating, Mr. Sanjeet Kumar, Director, Resurgent ESG Services Pvt. Ltd., said, “For infrastructure companies such as Ashoka Buildcon Limited, ESG performance is increasingly becoming an important indicator of how responsibly and resiliently a business operates. A strong ESG framework brings together governance, responsible resource management, occupational health and safety, environmental stewardship and meaningful stakeholder engagement. As infrastructure projects have a direct and lasting impact on communities and the environment, integrating ESG considerations into planning and execution is critical to managing risks and creating sustainable long-term value. The assessment also provides companies with an opportunity to identify areas for improvement and strengthen their sustainability practices and disclosures in line with evolving stakeholder and regulatory expectations, including the Securities and Exchange Board of India’s Business Responsibility and Sustainability Reporting framework.” A key feature of Resurgent ESG’s assessment methodology is its combination of data- driven analysis and direct stakeholder engagement. The framework goes beyond publicly available disclosures by incorporating direct engagement with key stakeholders within the rated entity. This approach enables the assessment to consider both quantitative and qualitative factors while developing a comprehensive view of an organisation’s sustainability profile. The 79.44 ESG score and A+ rating provide a structured assessment of ABL’s current ESG profile while highlighting the importance of continued progress in sustainability, responsible business practices and governance. As ESG considerations become increasingly relevant to investors, lenders, regulators and other stakeholders, such assessments can help organisations better understand their sustainability performance and identify opportunities for further improvement.
