Abstract
Because of the rising awareness that sustainability-related concerns may substantially impair a company's performance, sustainability reporting is becoming more common. This awareness is driving the trend. Since the Companies Act of 2013 made CSR essential in some sectors, an increasing number of businesses in India are committing to CSR and sustainability activities. However, accounting for and reporting on these efforts are still in its infancy, with fewer than forty businesses now revealing their performance in the area of sustainability. Infosys is one example of an Indian corporation that has reported on its CSR initiatives. In the history of the information technology industry, Infosys Ltd. has the distinction of being the first company in the world to produce a sustainability report using the G4 reporting methodology developed by the Global Reporting Initiative. The purpose of this case study is to investigate the reporting procedures that are used by Infosys and to get an understanding of the impact such procedures have on the cohesiveness and growth of the company. Over the course of ten years, it analyses the sustainability report that Infosys publishes and makes an effort to comprehend the reporting rules and procedures. One of the companies that was an early pioneer in sustainable development and reporting on that progress is Infosys. Not only do sustainability reports assist in showcasing CSR initiatives, but they also serve as an effective medium for achieving the nation's sustainability objective.
