BRSR supplier questionnaire template

A ready spreadsheet for the value chain questions a listed customer sends under SEBI BRSR Core: company details, boundary, Scope 1 by fuel, Scope 2 from electricity, energy, water and waste, with a unit and source beside every number.

For: MSMEs that supply a listed company, and the sustainability teams who send the questions. Saves you: Suppliers answer once in the order buyers ask. Buyers get answers they can compare instead of a different format from every supplier.

How to use it

  1. Fill the header: Legal name, GSTIN, the April to March period and the plants your figures cover.
  2. Add one line per fuel: Quantity from your bills, the unit, the factor and its source. The sheet multiplies for you.
  3. Add electricity: Units from your electricity bills; the sheet applies the CEA grid factor.
  4. Check units and send: kg against tonnes is the most common slip. Offer the evidence list, not the bills, unless the contract asks.
