[GRI 303-1, GRI 303-2] • Yes, the entity has implemented Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) mechanisms as part of its environmental management strategy. Select manufacturing plants are equipped with dedicated ZLD infrastructure. • Currently, zero water is discharged from our plants. Domestic wastewater is recycled through STP (Sewage Treatment Plant) and process wastewater through ETP (Effluent Treatment Plant). Each STP and ETP has got 3 levels of treatment i.e., Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary, followed by advance treatment procedures like Ultra Filtration, Nano Filtration & Reverse Osmosis (RO). • Currently, 34% of the freshwater requirement is met through recycled water, demonstrating effective water stewardship and continuous improvement in water circularity. • A unique waste heat–based evaporator system has been deployed as part of the ZLD infrastructure in Nashik Plant for the first time. This system offsets 50% of Nashik Freshwater requirement & also operates at 60% lesser power compared to conventional evaporators. • Reuse of water in process areas like pretreatment, water leak testing, etc. and in Toilets urinals & flush requirement are maximized, thereby optimizing the freshwater requirement. 6.
