Direct Lobbying Transparency

Overall Assessment	Comment	Score
Strong	ABB India Ltd discloses a comprehensive approach to its climate lobbying efforts, naming several specific policy frameworks it engages with, such as “the revision of the EU's Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR),” “Next Generation EU,” “the EU’s Green Deal policy initiatives,” and “the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act in the US.” It describes multiple engagement channels, including “meetings with regulators to understand their priorities,” “participation in international initiatives to address global issues such as climate change,” and collaboration with industry associations like Orgalim, where it chairs the Sustainable Mobility Task Force, as well as membership in the Zero Emission Transportation Association in the United States. The company also outlines clear objectives for these efforts, aiming to “promote high electric charging infrastructure targets (including for e-trucks)” and supporting “ambitious decarbonization and electrification commitments for road transport,” thereby demonstrating a detailed level of transparency in disclosing its policy positions and desired outcomes.	3

Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Comment	Score
None	ABB India Ltd demonstrates active policy engagement—"promoting high electric charging infrastructure targets" in the EU’s AFIR revision and "using its position as Chair of the Sustainable Mobility Task Force at Orgalim"—and its sustainability oversight is clearly defined, with the "Board of Directors overseeing the company’s sustainability strategy and monitors progress toward and achievement of targets". However, the company does not disclose any specific governance process for its lobbying activities: there is no mention of a dedicated lobbying policy, no process for reviewing or monitoring its direct or indirect lobbying, and no indication that a named individual or formal body oversees alignment of these advocacy efforts with its climate objectives. We found no evidence of criteria for assessing or managing participation in industry associations in relation to climate lobbying, nor any sign-off or audit mechanism to ensure that ABB’s policy advocacy remains consistent with its sustainability commitments.	0
