Sagar Textiles Ltd is among the top 1000 listed companies by market capitalisation in India. For the financial year, its annual report must include sustainability-related disclosures in the format prescribed by SEBI. Which format applies to it?

The Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report applies. SEBI's listing regulations require the top 1000 listed companies by market capitalisation to include a BRSR in their annual report, replacing the earlier Business Responsibility Report. The other reports serve different statutory purposes and are not the sustainability disclosure format.

Explanation
