Ramco Cements offers only fragmentary insight into how it governs its lobbying. The disclosure states under “PRINCIPLE 7” that "Businesses, when engaging in influencing public and regulatory policy, should do so in a manner that is responsible and transparent" and lists "14" affiliations with trade and industry bodies, yet gives no detail on how those memberships are assessed for policy alignment. For its own advocacy it records the topic "Net Zero Emission Road-map for Indian cement Industries" and notes a "Frequency of Review by Board (Annually/ Half yearly/ Quarterly / Others – please specify)" showing the review occurs "Whenever required", and says inputs are provided "through working group meetings and E-Mail". While this indicates the board may review policy engagement on an ad-hoc basis, the company does not disclose any formal process, criteria or schedule for such reviews, does not name the individual or committee responsible, and provides no mechanism for monitoring or correcting misaligned positions of the 14 associations it belongs to. There is also no reference to publishing a lobbying-alignment report or to systematic oversight that links lobbying with its climate ambitions. Consequently, the evidence points to only limited governance of lobbying activities.
