In 2024, Dalmia Bharat reported total carbon emissions of approximately 14,250,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 430,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 1,430 kg CO2e for Scope 3. This represents a significant increase in emissions compared to 2023, where emissions were about 13,060,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 590,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 1,320 kg CO2e for Scope 3. The company has disclosed emissions data across all three scopes, indicating a comprehensive approach to tracking its carbon footprint. Notably, the intensity of emissions per rupee of turnover for Scope 1 and Scope 2 was approximately 0.02676 in 2024, reflecting the company's operational efficiency in relation to its revenue. Despite the increase in absolute emissions, Dalmia Bharat has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate strategy. The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while the company is monitoring its emissions, it may not yet have formalised a comprehensive plan for significant reductions in line with industry standards. Overall, Dalmia Bharat's emissions data highlights the challenges faced in managing carbon outputs, particularly in the cement industry, which is known for its high emissions intensity.
