Granules India, a vertically integrated pharmaceutical company committed to sustainable and responsible healthcare, has been awarded a Gold rating by EcoVadis in its inaugural corporate-level assessment. This places the company in the 97th percentile, among the top 5% of all companies assessed globally across all industries.

EcoVadis is one of the world’s trusted providers of business sustainability ratings, assessing companies on environment, labour & human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement. This recognition affirms Granules’ robust sustainability practices and transparency in its business operations.

The company’s first-ever corporate-level submission to EcoVadis builds on years of operational and environmental excellence across its manufacturing footprint. The rating reflects the company’s purpose-driven transformation journey — Healing lives responsibly through pioneering green science — and aligns with its broader sustainability goals, including science-based climate targets, greener chemistry platforms, and safer workplace practices.

“This Gold rating is more than a recognition — it’s a reminder that we are choosing to grow differently by placing sustainability at the heart of our progress,” said Dr. Krishna Prasad Chigurupati, Chairman and Managing Director of Granules India. “It is a moment of pride, but also one of responsibility to continue raising the bar as we build a more resilient and responsible future.”

Priyanka Chigurupati, Executive Director, added: “We deeply value the trust and partnership of our customers and suppliers. This milestone is a shared win — a testament to what’s possible when we act together with ‘One Planet, One Purpose’.”
