CDP runs a global disclosure system through which companies report on climate change, water security and forests via annual questionnaires, often at the request of investors or large customers. Responses are scored from A to D-. Indian companies increasingly respond to meet supply chain requirements, and CDP disclosures align with frameworks such as ISSB standards and support BRSR reporting.
