Develop an online portal for BRSR reporting of corporate ESG reports — a system that collects, validates, consolidates and generates a company's Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report in the SEBI-prescribed structure, with the evidence trail intact and the assurance process survivable.
Overview
Outcomes
- BRSR data collected once, from the right owner, in the right format, instead of chased over email for six weeks
- Built-in validation that catches contradictions and missing disclosures before the auditor does
- A generated, submission-ready BRSR in the prescribed sectional structure
- A complete evidence and audit trail supporting assurance on the BRSR Core KPIs
- Year-on-year comparability, so this year's report is not built from scratch again
Overview SEBI mandates the top listed entities by market capitalisation to disclose ESG performance in the BRSR format, which is organised into Section A (general disclosures about the entity, its products, operations, employees, group structure, CSR and compliance), Section B (management and process disclosures), and Section C (principle-wise performance across the nine National Guidelines on Responsible Business Conduct principles, covering governance, sustainable products, employee wellbeing, stakeholder interest, human rights, environment, public policy conduct, equitable development and customer responsibility). BRSR also exists in Comprehensive, Lite and Core variants, and the Core KPIs carry an assurance requirement. All of this is currently assembled, at most companies, by human beings with spreadsheets and a deep sense of fatigue. The Story It is week three of reporting season. The sustainability lead has emailed forty-one people. Nineteen have replied. Four sent PDFs of scanned tables. One sent last year's numbers with the year changed. The energy consumption figure in Section C does not reconcile with the operations data in Section A, and nobody can remember which one came from the plant and which one came from a guess. The auditor arrives Monday. Build the thing that makes this Tuesday instead of a crisis.
Problem statement
- Maps the full BRSR disclosure structure — Section A, Section B, and Section C across all nine NGRBC principles — into structured, assignable data fields rather than a document to be typed into
- Distributes data collection to the actual owners across departments, plants and subsidiaries, with role-based access, deadlines, reminders and submission status tracking
- Validates entries automatically: mandatory field checks, unit consistency, year-on-year variance flags, internal cross-section reconciliation, and range checks against the previous filing
- Maintains an evidence and audit trail — supporting documents, who entered what, when, and what changed — sufficient to support assurance of the BRSR Core KPIs
- Generates the consolidated report in the prescribed format, and supports Comprehensive, Lite or Core scope depending on which applies to the entity
- Provides a management dashboard: completion status by section and principle, open exceptions, ESG KPI trends across reporting years, and readiness for assurance
- Optionally applies AI to extract values from supporting documents, flag anomalous or improbable entries, draft qualitative narrative disclosures from underlying data, or answer "where did this number come from" queries
- Use only publicly available BRSR formats, published corporate reports or synthetic company data. Do not use confidential corporate information. Where the portal generates narrative text, the output must be reviewable and editable by a human — the filing is a regulatory document, not a creative writing exercise
For the Grand Finale, your build should include:
- A working portal implementing the BRSR structure across Section A, Section B and Section C with the nine principles represented
- A multi-user data collection workflow with role-based assignment, status tracking and reminders, demonstrated across at least three simulated departments or plants
- An automated validation engine, with a demonstration of it catching missing, inconsistent and improbable entries
- Report generation in the prescribed format plus a management dashboard covering completion status, exceptions and multi-year KPI trends
- An evidence and audit-trail module, with a documented account of how the system would support assurance on BRSR Core KPIs
The Grand Finale is judged on:
- Accuracy and completeness of BRSR structure and disclosure coverage — 30%
- Data collection workflow, role-based access and multi-department usability — 20%
- Strength of validation, reconciliation and data quality controls — 20%
- Evidence, audit trail and assurance readiness — 15%
- Dashboard, report generation quality and demo — 15%

Deliverables: Mid evaluation
- Your idea in one line
One or two sentences a judge can read in ten seconds: what you are building and who it is for.
- What will be working by the finale?
The parts you commit to having running at the Grand Finale, most important first.
- Tech stack and hardware you plan to use
Languages, frameworks, models, boards and sensors, and anything you still need to get hold of.
- A diagram, sketch or mock-up of your idea
One image that shows how it works: an architecture diagram, a wireframe, or a photo of a sketch. Put anything more in your deck.
- What have you built or tested so far?
Optional. Anything already running, measured or prototyped, even if it is rough.
- Pitch deck (PDF)
Optional. Export your slides as a PDF. Judges read it on the page, next to your answers.
- GitHub repository
A link to your code, if you have some yet.
- Demo video
A YouTube, Loom or Google Drive link to a short demo, if you have one. Make sure anyone with the link can watch it.
