We are committed to reducing our Green House Gas (GHG) emissions and create a positive impact on the planet. During the year, we had undertaken multiple initiatives at our manufacturing locations to reduce GHG emissions. Selected initiative are

Our share of renewable electricity has increased to 31.52%. Higher procurement of wind and solar power from the PPA agreements by our Chemical Business led to the increase.
We continue to increase the use of biomass in our operations
Our energy efficiency measures include
In the Chemical Business, our initiatives such as optimisation and improvement of chiller operation by doing common brine network circuit, replacement of cooling tower fan with energy efficient fan and existing motors with energy efficient motors resulted in savings of more than 25 lakh kWh.
In the TTB, we were able to save more than two lakh kWh through the installation of a “Direct Evaporative cooling unit”, resulting in reductions in energy consumption and operational costs.
In the PFB, we replaced chilled water with additional closed loop cooling tower line from Resin Plant, improving flow and cooling efficiency. Further, the frequency of our cooling water pump was brought down from 50Hz to 40Hz, saving around 360 kWh per day.

10. Briefly describe the waste management practices adopted in your establishments. Describe the strategy adopted by your company to reduce usage of hazardous and toxic chemicals in your products and processes and the practices adopted to manage such wastes.

At SRF, environmental and social responsibility are one of our Aspirations 2030. As part of the environmental and social responsibility, we are committed to manage our waste effectively through our 3R approach – Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. Our efforts focus on minimizing waste generation at the source, promoting the reuse of materials wherever feasible, and maximising the recycling of remaining waste streams. Accordingly, we work towards integrating circularity across our operations and strive to function within a ‘closed loop’ in our operations.

We have significantly advanced our 3R capabilities by investing in the required infrastructure and processes, such as:

We place a strong emphasis on efficiently using virgin raw material and increasing our recycled input material from our total raw material consumption.
The total recycled input material used in PFB was approximately 3,450 MT (including PET chips & PP chips).
During the year, we implemented several initiatives such as recycling paper tubes and shell rolls in our Technical Textile Business. We were able to recycle 60% of paper tube and 89.8% of shell roll.

Independent Assurance Statement

To SRF Limited, The Galleria, DLF Mayur Vihar, Unit No. 236 & 237, Second Floor, Mayur Place, Noida Link Road, Mayur Vihar Phase-1 Extn, Delhi 110 091

Independent Assurance Statement on Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) disclosures and Integrated Annual Report (IAR) for the financial year 2024-25.

Introduction and objective of engagement

SRF Limited (the 'Company') has developed its Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (‘BRSR’) including the BRSR Core Indicators1, based on the BRSR reporting guidelines prescribed by SEBI for listed entities. The reporting criteria have been derived from the Principles of National Guidelines on Responsible Business Conduct, 2018 (NGRBC), and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol - A Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard.

BDO India LLP (BDO) was engaged by the Company to provide independent assurance on select non-financial sustainability disclosures in the BRSR (the ‘Report’) for the period 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2025.

The Company’s responsibilities

The content of the Report and its presentation are the sole responsibilities of the Management of the Company. The Company’s Management is also responsible for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal controls relevant to the preparation of the Report, so that it is free from material misstatement.

BDO’s responsibility

BDO’s responsibility, as agreed with the Management of the Company, is to provide assurance on the BRSR Core Indicators as described in the ‘Scope & boundary of assurance’ section below. We do not accept or assume any responsibility for any other purpose or to any other person or organization. Any reliance a third party may place on the Report is entirely at its own risk.

Assurance standard and criteria

We conducted our assurance engagement in accordance with International Standard on Assurance Engagements (ISAE) 3000 (Revised), “Assurance Engagements Other than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information”, and ISAE 3410, “Assurance Engagements on Greenhouse Gas Statement”, issued by the International Auditing and Standards Board. We applied the criteria of ‘Reasonable’ Assurance for non-financial Core Indicators of BRSR (Business Responsibility & Sustainability Report).

Scope & boundary of assurance

We have assured the BRSR Core Indicators1, (as set out under Appendix 1 to this statement), pertaining to the Company’s non-financial performance for the period 1st April 2024 through 31st March 2025.

The reporting scope and boundary cover the Company’s operations.

Assurance methodology

Our assurance process entailed conducting procedures to gather evidence regarding the reliability of the disclosures covered in the assurance scope. The physical & virtual verification on sample basis was carried out at the following locations:

Corporate Office, Gurugram;
Chemical Business: Dahej Site & Bhiwadi Site;
Performance Films & Foil Business: Indore Site [Domestic Tariff Area 1 (DTA1), Domestic Tariff Area 2 (DTA2) & Special Economic Zone (SEZ)].

These manufacturing facilities, combined, represent approximately 80% of the revenue generated by the Company. We conducted a review and verification of data collection, collation, and calculation methodologies, and a general review of the logic of inclusion/ omission of relevant information/ data in the Report.

We used our professional judgement as Assurance Provider for selection of sample of the Company’s locations/facilities and non- financial information for the verifications.

We conducted a review and verification of data collection, collation, and calculation methodologies,

ANNUAL REPORT 2024-25 39

and a general review of the logic of inclusion/omission of relevant information/data in the Report.

Our review process included:

Evaluate and assess the appropriateness of the quantification methods used to arrive at the non-financial/sustainability information of the BRSR Core Indicators;
Review of consistency of data/information within the Report as well as between the Report and source;
Engagement through discussions with personnel at both corporate and plant/facility levels who are accountable for the data and information presented in the Report;
Execution of an audit trail of claims and data streams, to determine the level of accuracy in collection, transcription, and aggregation;
Review of data collection and management procedures, and related internal controls.

Limitations & exclusions

There are inherent limitations in assurance engagement, including, for example, the use of judgment and selective testing of data. Accordingly, there are possibilities that material misstatements in the sustainability information of the Report may remain undetected.

The assurance scope specifically excludes:

Data and information outside the defined reporting period (1st April 2024 to 31st March 2025);
Review of the ‘economic and/or financial performance indicators’ included in the Reports, specifically, the financial information based on which such indicators are reported; we have been informed by the Company that these are derived from the Company’s audited financial records;
The Company’s statements and claims related to any topics other than those listed in the ‘Scope and boundary of assurance’;
The Company's statements that describe qualitative/quantitative assertions, expression of opinion, belief, inference, aspiration, expectation, aim or future intention.

Our observations

Based on our review of the Report, we observed that the disclosures of the Company, covered under the ‘Scope and boundary of assurance’, are fairly reliable. Certain data collation and compilation discrepancies, which were noted during our review, were subsequently corrected.

Our above observations, however, do not affect our conclusion regarding the Report.

Our conclusions

Based on the scope of our review, we concluded that the non-financial sustainability disclosures of the BRSR Core indicators as mentioned in ‘Scope and boundary of assurance’ fairly fulfil the criteria of relevance, completeness, reliability, neutrality, and understandability as per ‘reasonable’ assurance criteria.
