Outcomes, measured.

Fragmented sustainability data across 14 plants, an MSCI rating below sector median, and limited board capacity to engage proxy advisers on ESG concerns.

Bepmax deployed a 16-week transformation programme: double-materiality reset, plant-level data architecture, BRSR Core assurance readiness, and a board ESG governance refresh.

MSCI ESG rating upgraded by two notches within 14 months, BRSR Core report assured by Big-Four with zero qualifications, and a $250M sustainability-linked loan closed at 35 bps below conventional pricing.

30% of revenue exposed to EU CBAM, a Scope 1 emissions intensity 14% above European peers, and limited internal capacity to model alternative fuels and CCS economics.

Bepmax built a plant-by-plant Marginal Abatement Cost Curve, modelled alternative-fuel substitution, sequenced CapEx by NPV-per-tonne, and embedded an internal carbon price into investment decisions.

A validated 38% Scope 1 intensity reduction pathway by 2032, ₹1,800 Cr of green CapEx prioritised, and a defensible carbon export strategy that protected EU market access.

A public 2040 net-zero commitment with no SBTi validation, Scope 3 emissions covering 92% of footprint but largely unmeasured, and growing client RFP scrutiny on transition credibility.

Bepmax restated the GHG inventory with Scope 3 supplier engagement, modelled SBTi-aligned near-term and net-zero targets, and integrated decarbonisation levers with workforce, real estate and cloud strategy.

SBTi-validated targets within nine months, Scope 3 measurement coverage lifted from 23% to 89%, and a CFO-signed transition plan disclosed alongside the annual report — cited in three subsequent client wins.

Disclosure obligations expanding faster than internal capability, with audit committee concerns over data quality, financed-emissions methodology and reasonable assurance readiness.

Bepmax established a Disclosure Control Framework, deployed PCAF-aligned financed-emissions methodology, drafted integrated BRSR + IFRS S2 disclosures, and led Big-Four assurance management.

First-in-peer-group reasonable assurance on BRSR Core, financed emissions disclosed across 96% of the lending book, and RBI Climate Risk Disclosure submission completed two quarters ahead of mandate.
