Abstract: Sustainability Reporting (SR) in Asia with the exception of Japan, is at a nascent stage. As developed countries are more active in this area, many lessons can be drawn from their experiences. Japan is relatively more advanced with respect to SR not only in Asia, but also in comparison to the rest of the world. It has been observed that there is sporadic growth in SR among Asian countries, as each has different reasons for adopting the same. In the future, it is expected that there will be a sustained effort in this direction in the Asian region. This paper presents an overview of SR in Asia and also the impetus for Indian companies to improve their environmental and social performance.
