ESG & BRSR for MSMEs, built around what's material.
ESG isn't one checklist. We focus on the topics that actually move the needle for MSMEs — then handle the carbon accounting, BRSR reporting and certifications.
The topics that actually matter here
MSMEs are pulled into ESG through their large customers’ BRSR value-chain disclosures and buyer audits — even when not directly regulated.
ESG scoring, BRSR performance disclosures and buyer audits all reward the same thing: credible data on your material topics. For MSMEs, that means:
- Value-chain ESG data (BRSR)
- Buyer sustainability requirements
- Resource & energy efficiency
- Basic governance
The mistake we see: Assuming ESG doesn’t apply because you’re unlisted — until a major customer asks for the data.
How we handle ESG for MSMEs
We pin down the ESG topics that actually matter for your MSMEs operation — and where you stand today.
We build your GHG inventory across Scope 1, 2 and the material Scope 3 categories, from real data — not defaults.
We prepare and file your BRSR (or GRI / chosen framework) disclosures across the nine NGRBC principles.
We get you assurance- and audit-ready — BRSR Core assurance, or GRS / RCS / ISCC where they apply.
