Question

Consider the following statements: I. The Reserve Bank of India mandates all the listed companies in India to submit a Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR). II. In India, a company submitting a BRSR makes disclosures in the report that are largely non-financial in nature. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Options

a

I only

b

II only

Answer
c

Both I and II

d

Neither I nor II

Explanation

Statement II is correct. Statement I is incorrect.

The BRSR is mandated by SEBI, not the RBI, and applies only to the top 1,000 listed companies by market capitalization, not all listed companies. It focuses on ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) parameters, which are non-financial.

SEBI regulates equity market disclosures like BRSR, not the RBI.

Answer: (b).
