Godrej Agrovet gives a clear picture of which climate-related initiatives it engages on by naming the Extended Producer Responsibility framework, the Indian Palm Oil Sustainability Framework and the Indian Sustainable Palm Oil Coalition. It also outlines how it participates—through framing policies, providing industry insights, joining stakeholder consultations and reviewing draft rules—so readers understand the channels it uses, even though it does not identify the specific government bodies or officials that receive this input. The disclosure, however, stops short of explaining what regulatory amendments, targets or other concrete results the company is advocating for within those initiatives. Consequently, while the company is transparent about the subject matter and general methods of its lobbying, it provides very limited insight into the policy outcomes it seeks.

Godrej Agrovet Ltd’s disclosures offer limited insight into how it governs its policy advocacy to align with its climate-change objectives. The company indicates that “specific officials of the Company are authorized to communicate with industrial bodies, for and on behalf of the Company, in accordance with communication policy of the Company,” however it does not disclose any oversight or review mechanisms tied to that communication policy. It also reports that “Our chairman is an executive committee member of Word Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD)” and confirms “a public commitment … to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement,” but does not specify who—whether an individual or committee—oversees alignment of its direct or indirect lobbying with its climate commitments, nor does it describe any process for monitoring, auditing, or correcting its advocacy efforts. We found no evidence of procedures to ensure consistency between its participation in industry associations and its SBTi or Paris Agreement targets, and no description of any formal review of its lobbying activities against its stated climate strategy.
