The company has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data. Bajaj Auto's emissions intensity for Scope 1 and Scope 2 combined was reported at 0.02039 kg CO2e per rupee of turnover in 2023, with a physical output intensity of 20.0 tonnes CO2e. In 2022, the emissions intensity per rupee was slightly lower at 0.01785 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Bajaj Auto has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor are there any initiatives reported under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company is actively monitoring its emissions but has not cascaded any data from a parent organisation. Overall, while Bajaj Auto is tracking its emissions, it currently lacks formal commitments to reduce its carbon footprint, which is increasingly important in the automotive industry as companies strive for sustainability and compliance with global climate standards.
