Abstract
This study looks at voluntary R&D disclosure trends in the annual reports of a few Indian IT and pharmaceutical industries. A self-created R&D disclosure index has been created for the study's purposes. Secondary data provide the foundation of this investigation. The chosen IT and pharmaceutical firms' public annual reports were used to get the data. The study examines the extent of voluntary R&D disclosure both at the aggregate level and is based on a disclosure checklist comprising 52 elements of R&D information. Descriptive statistics have been utilised for the comparison of IT and pharmaceutical firms. The outcome demonstrates that, in comparison to IT businesses, pharmaceutical companies have disclosed more R&D information in annual reports in the context of total voluntary R&D disclosure
