LT Foods has submitted its Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report (BRSR) for FY26 to stock exchanges. The filing details the company's environmental performance, social initiatives, and governance metrics for the financial year ending March 31, 2026. The report highlights significant progress in sustainability goals, including a 92% share of green energy usage against a target of 100% by 2030. The company also achieved its vision of zero fatalities and zero data breaches during the period. Financial and Operational Overview LT Foods reported a turnover of ₹4,128.16 crore and a net worth of ₹1,922.16 crore for FY26. The company operates two plants and 30 offices across India, serving markets in 35 states and 40 countries. Exports contributed 28% to total turnover. Metric Value Turnover ₹4,128.16 crore Net Worth ₹1,922.16 crore Export Contribution 28% Green Energy Share 92% Environmental Performance The company consumed 7,96,045 GJ of total energy, with renewable sources accounting for the majority of this figure. Scope 1 emissions rose to 3,287 MT CO2e from 807 MT in the prior year, attributed to enhanced reporting methodology that now includes methane and nitrous oxide from rice husk combustion. Scope 2 emissions stood at 11,255 MT CO2e. Water management saw a shift in reporting methodology. Total water withdrawal was 2,07,521 kilolitres, primarily from groundwater. The company achieved zero liquid discharge, reusing treated water for horticulture rather than discharging it. Waste Management Total waste generated increased to 9,111 metric tonnes due to improved data completeness. Of this, 9,105.17 metric tonnes were recovered through recycling or reuse. Plastic waste recycled amounted to 1,097 metric tonnes, down from 2,170.53 metric tonnes in FY25. Social and Governance Metrics LT Foods employed 798 permanent employees and 2,041 workers. The permanent employee turnover rate was 28%, up from 21% in FY25. Female representation on the Board of Directors stands at 22%, against a 2030 target of 30%. The company reported 1,100 customer complaints during FY26, all of which were resolved. No complaints were received regarding sexual harassment, discrimination, or child labour. The company maintains SA8000 certification and ISO 45001 standards for occupational health and safety. What the Numbers Show The sharp increase in reported Scope 1 emissions (3,287 MT vs 807 MT) is not indicative of increased pollution but reflects a change in accounting methodology. The inclusion of methane and nitrous oxide from rice husk combustion provides a more accurate picture of the company's carbon footprint, aligning with GHG Protocol standards. This transparency strengthens the reliability of future year-on-year comparisons.
