Sustainability at ITC: Building Economic, Environmental & Social Capital for India
At ITC, sustainability is not just a priority — it’s a purpose-driven strategy that shapes our business and societal impact. Rooted in the philosophy of “Putting India First”, we believe that enterprises have a unique responsibility and capability to drive transformational change through inclusive and sustainable growth.
More than two decades ago, ITC envisioned becoming a National
Champion, committed to placing the country before corporation, and
the institution before individual. This vision gave rise to innovative
business models that seamlessly integrate the creation of economic value
with the building of environmental and social capital.
Sustainability in Action
To bring this vision to life, ITC has implemented a
multi-dimensional sustainability strategy focused on long-term, measurable
impact across the triple bottom line:
- Low-Carbon
Growth
We follow a low-carbon strategy powered by increased use of renewable energy and reduction in specific energy consumption across our operations. - Water
Stewardship
ITC has undertaken significant efforts to reduce specific water usage and scale up rainwater harvesting, contributing to water security in local communities. - Waste
Management
Our flagship WoW (Well-being Out of Waste) program promotes responsible solid waste management, recycling, and awareness, reinforcing our commitment to a circular economy.
By embedding sustainability into
our core business model, ITC continues to lead with purpose, aligning
business success with national and global environmental goals. We remain
committed to shaping a future where growth is inclusive, responsible, and
regenerative—for people, for the planet, and for India.
