Royal Enfield at EML aim to develop a formal sustainability strategy that rests on three
pillars – Product Stewardship, Resource Neutrality & Transparent Disclosures.
Product stewardship entails integrating social and environmental responsibility at
every stage of the value chain. A responsible supply chain, the use of recycled and
recyclable components, and the responsible use and disposal of our products are the
main focuses of product stewardship.
The goal of resource neutrality is to reduce resource use and waste through process
and technological improvements in our own operations at our sites.
In addition to this sustainability report, we also want to inform our stakeholders of our
performance through different ESG disclosures (such as investor ESG surveys, the
CDP, etc.).
In accordance with this sustainability strategy, we shall establish challenging
objectives and precise benchmarks. A strong governance system, which consists of a
yearly roadmap, data collection and management, as well as measures for monitoring,
will be used to carry out these pledges.
Royal Enfield has encountered with following difficulties when implementing sustainability
initiative:
To improve our ability to respond to hazards, EML thoroughly evaluates each
category of risk for relevance, magnitude, and probability. To ensure business
continuity, top management frequently examines the formal risk management
framework. The Board's Risk Management Committee has extensive authority over
all key risks and effects.
Significant developments in our industry's regulatory, supply chain, and brand threats,
among others, are continuously monitored. To better understand the risks and
mitigation strategies, we collaborate with a range of stakeholders, including trade
associations, outside consultants, and decision-makers. By working with multiple
function heads, a list of risks and opportunities is kept up to date.
Natural disasters' impact on operational safety and the ongoing risk of resource
scarcity for operations and the supply chain
The objective of the project work is to grade Royal Enfield Motors on sustainability
initiative.
METHODOLOGY
The Green INDEX calculation is used by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) to
"evaluate the sustainability performance of Indian companies across six categories. The
following are brief descriptions of each of these verticals:
• Green Leadership: This vertical evaluates the organization's commitment to sustainability
from the perspective of the leadership, taking into account the adoption of sustainable
practises, the communication of sustainability goals, and the integration of sustainability into
the business plan. Some of the sub-parameters that fall under this vertical are activities
connected to sustainability as well as policy, strategy, reporting, communication, and
training."
• Resource Intensity: This factor assesses the effectiveness with which a corporation uses
resources, including carbon emissions, waste production, and energy and water usage.
Vertical indicators include waste production, carbon emissions, waste consumption, and
energy consumption.
• Green Initiatives: This area evaluates how the business uses green initiatives such eco-
friendly products, sustainable supply chain practises, and the utilisation of renewable energy
sources. Sustainable supply chains, eco-friendly goods, and renewable energy sources are
among the requirements for this vertical.
• Business Value Chain: This area evaluates how effectively the organisation performs in
terms of sustainability throughout each value chain link, including those involving clients,
suppliers, and other stakeholders. One of the prerequisites for this vertical is stakeholder
involvement, along with sustainability of suppliers and customers.
• Compliance & Reporting: This vertical evaluates how well the organisation reports on
issues pertaining to sustainability as well as how well it complies with relevant sustainability
requirements. This category's criteria include corporate governance, sustainability reporting,
and adherence to environmental norms.
Each of these verticals is assigned a weighting based on its significance to sustainability
performance and impact on the company's overall sustainability performance. The Green
INDEX score is then calculated using the weighted average of the scores for each vertical.
Therefore, the calculation of the Green INDEX provides an in-depth evaluation of the
sustainability performance of Indian companies, taking into account their leadership
commitment, resource efficiency, impact on the environment and society, green initiatives,
business value chain, and compliance with relevant regulations.

A company is assessed for 6 sectors and 30 factors as part of the Green INDEX calculation,
with the performance of the company being the final consideration. Based on information
submitted by businesses and validated by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), scores
for each index are determined. The following steps are involved in determining the Green
INDEX score:
• Data collection: Businesses send CII their pertinent data for analysis. CII has examined this
data to confirm its veracity and accuracy.
• Parameter Scoring: Based on data supplied by the company and validated by CII, scores are
computed for each parameter. Higher scores indicate better achievement; values range from 0
to 20. The CII bases the weight assigned to each indicator on its influence on the industry and
its influence on the performance of the firm.
• Vertical Score: The weighted average of the average scores for each sector constitutes the
score for that sector. The CII determines the importance of each indicator in an industry based
on its applicability to that industry. Each industry is also weighted based on how it will affect
the company.
• Overall Scoring: The company's overall score is determined by the weighted average of the
scores for its six verticals. Based on the significance of each vertical to sustainability
performance, the CII assigns a weight to each one. Each of the six verticals is assigned a
weight of 100.

CONCLUSION
As we can see that the area of deficiency is in the table is green measures so to
overcome the shortcomings of green measures, the company should consider
implementing the following solutions: -
Improve water recycling: The company should invest in improving its water recycling
capacity to increase the share of recycled water in total consumption. This can be done by
upgrading existing infrastructure and introducing new, more efficient technologies.
Increase rainwater harvesting: The company should increase the proportion of technically
available land used for rainwater harvesting. This can be done by identifying new cropping
areas and installing new systems to collect and store rainwater.
Increase the use of clean energy: The company should increase the share of clean energy
sources in the total electricity consumption. This can be done by investing in renewable
energy such as solar, wind and geothermal energy.
Increasing energy savings: The company must implement measures to increase energy
savings by reducing energy waste and optimizing energy use. This can be done by upgrading
existing infrastructure and introducing new technologies such as energy-efficient lighting and
HVAC systems.
Improve waste management: The company should improve its waste management practices
by increasing the proportion of recyclable or recyclable waste. This can be done by
implementing new recycling programs, reducing waste production and investing in new
technologies that enable more efficient waste management. Implement sustainable supply
chains: The company must implement sustainable supply chain initiatives by working with
suppliers who follow sustainable practices and ensuring that all products and materials used
in the production process are environmentally friendly.
By implementing these solutions, a company can improve its green performance and reduce
its environmental impact, as well as improve its reputation and brand image as a socially
responsible and environmentally conscious organization.
From the table we can see that area of excellence in which Royal Enfield has
contributed towards society is Business value chain externalities and impact and
remarkably in green leadership parameters.
