The outcome one-way LSDV regression model portrayed that there is significant positive impact of net fixed assets, market capitalisation, return on equity, quick ratio and significant negative of net sales, promoter's holding, current ratio, listing status on HRDI of the manufacturing sector companies listed in India. Overall, it can be said that the present study motivates the Indian corporate sector to enhance their HR disclosure practices.
