Abstract: National Action Plans (NAPs) focused on enterprise and human rights are becoming an increasingly important concept and a growing trend. This paper highlights NAPs as a crucial tool for integrating business practices with human rights governance, offering a framework to assess how they contribute to fostering respect for human rights in the business world. It also provides an overview of NAPs policy in India, particularly in light of the impact of COVID-19. The article evaluates the effectiveness of NAPs based on six key criteria: scope, content and priorities; baseline assessments; stakeholder engagement; transparency; accountability; and resources. It discusses the potential of NAPs to promote a strong respect for human rights in the business context moving forward. Drawing on the authors' development of influential guidance on NAPs published in 2014, as well as their experiences supporting NAPs processes in various countries, the article provides valuable insights. In November 2018, during the Business and Human Rights Forum in Geneva, India officially announced its intention to create a National Action Plan (NAP) on Business and Human Rights. This positions India among 45 countries that either have a NAP or are in the process of finalizing one. The aim is to hold businesses accountable for their impact on communities and the environment, striving for sustainable and responsible corporate actions. While the initial draft of the plan has been in development for nearly a year, it is now in the final stages of extensive consultations with stakeholders, led by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs.
