NHPC ESG score has been assigned at 48 by ESG Risk Assessments & Insights Limited, the company said in a BSE filing on September 9, 2026. NHPC informed the exchanges that it had received information about the assessment and clarified that it had not engaged the firm to prepare the score.

The disclosure identifies both the score and its origin: an independently prepared assessment using company information available in the public domain. NHPC said the score is available on the websites of BSE Limited and the National Stock Exchange of India Limited.

Assessment based on publicly available information

ESG Risk Assessments & Insights Limited prepared the report independently, according to NHPC. The company explicitly stated that it had not commissioned the assessor for the ESG score.

That clarification establishes the basis on which NHPC communicated the assessment to investors. The filing reports a score assigned by an external firm; it does not describe an assessment undertaken under an engagement with the company.

The supplied disclosure does not specify the scoring scale, methodology or separate environmental, social and governance component scores. It also does not provide a previous score for comparison. Accordingly, the reported figure does not establish an improvement or deterioration in NHPC's ESG assessment.

Disclosure follows earlier exchange communication

NHPC submitted the information under Regulation 30 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015, in continuation of its earlier letter dated March 23, 2026. The supplied filing does not reproduce the contents of that earlier communication.

The letter was addressed to BSE and NSE and signed by company secretary Rupa Deb. It identifies NHPC by BSE scrip code 533098 and NSE symbol NHPC, and directs readers to the two exchanges' websites for the ESG score.
