In 2024, Deepak Nitrite reported total carbon emissions of approximately 117,226,380 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 93,029,370 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 329,554,920 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This represents a slight decrease in Scope 1 emissions compared to 2023, where they were about 138,304,000 kg CO2e, and a reduction in Scope 2 emissions from 84,305,000 kg CO2e. However, Scope 3 emissions increased from 476,792,000 kg CO2e in 2023. The company has disclosed emissions data across all three scopes, indicating a comprehensive approach to carbon accounting. Notably, the total Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions intensity per rupee of turnover adjusted for Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) was reported at 0.64424 in 2024, down from 0.60515 in 2023, reflecting an improvement in efficiency. Despite these figures, Deepak Nitrite has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor do they appear to be part of any recognised initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests a need for further commitment to climate action. Overall, while Deepak Nitrite has made strides in emissions reporting and efficiency, the lack of formal reduction targets highlights an area for potential growth in their climate strategy.
