Firstsource Earns A In CDP Supplier Engagement And B In Climate

Firstsource Solutions Limited reported progress in environmental performance after receiving an A rating in the CDP Supplier Engagement Assessment and a B rating in both CDP Climate Disclosure and CDP Water Security Disclosure for FY25. The firm said these outcomes place it among organisations actively engaging suppliers on climate priorities including governance, emissions targets, Scope three disclosures, and value chain collaboration. The results mark continuity with FY24, when the company secured similar ratings, and represent an extension through inclusion of water security.

The company outlined its commitment to Net Zero 2050, noting alignment of targets to the Science Based Targets initiative and ongoing validation. It disclosed that more than 26 per cent of total power consumption now derives from renewable sources, reflecting increased adoption of clean energy. Firstsource affirmed full disclosure of Scope one, Scope two, and Scope three emissions with greenhouse gas data externally assured, and it said transparency underpins its reporting improvements.

Across the value chain, around 85 per cent of supplier spend is assessed against environmental, social and governance criteria as part of a maturing sustainability framework. The firm is targeting conversion of half of its vehicle fleet to electric vehicles by 2027, an aim intended to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and lower operational emissions. These measures are supported by governance and engagement practices designed to drive execution and demonstrate accountability.

Company representatives framed the CDP assessments as external validation of progress while noting that ratings evaluate both action and governance across the supply chain. The FY25 outcomes, including Water Security disclosure for the first time, were described as evidence of increasing emphasis on execution and value chain impact as Firstsource advances towards its Net Zero 2050 commitment. Observers will watch subsequent reporting and SBTi validation to assess ongoing progress.
