The present paper attempts to study the extent of environmental reporting by Indian companies. A sample of 30 Indian companies was taken and their annual reports were examined to gather information about the initiatives taken by these companies towards making India a low carbon economy.

Our results show that companies in the automobile and IT sector have the highest environmental score while companies in banking sector had low scores.続きを見る
