Water Stewardship for Indian Industries: Compliance & Best Practice
S
Statura Team
Water stewardship — using water responsibly and reducing impact on shared resources — is becoming a material issue for Indian industry amid growing scarcity and regulation.
The Regulatory Angle
Water consumption and discharge are regulated by Pollution Control Boards; many states mandate rainwater harvesting and restrict groundwater extraction.
Best Practices
- Conduct a water audit to map usage and losses.
- Recycle and reuse process water; aim for Zero Liquid Discharge where feasible.
- Harvest rainwater and recharge groundwater.
- Set reduction targets and disclose in ESG/BRSR reports.
The Business Case
Beyond compliance, water efficiency cuts costs and protects operations from scarcity risk.
Statura runs water audits and builds ESG and sustainability programmes for industry.
