Cautious use of natural capital and increased use of renewable energy creates sustainable grounds for a circular economy, an economic model that emphasizes on reusing and recycling materials to reduce the consumption of natural resources and prevent creation of wastes. Housing over 11,000 pharmaceutical manufacturing units, the Indian Pharmaceutical Industry (IPI) makes extensive use of natural resources. The present study highlights the disclosures made by top 15 pharmaceutical companies listed in India, regarding the use of natural capital and efforts made by these companies for sustainability development.
