HDFC Securities Limited's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from HDFC Bank Limited

HDFC Securities Limited, headquartered in India, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of HDFC Bank Limited, which may influence its climate-related initiatives and reporting. While HDFC Securities Limited does not have its own reduction targets or commitments listed, it is important to note that emissions data and performance metrics may be cascaded from its parent company, HDFC Bank Limited. This relationship suggests that HDFC Securities may align its climate strategies with those of HDFC Bank, which is actively engaged in sustainability efforts. As of now, HDFC Securities Limited has not disclosed any specific climate pledges or initiatives. The lack of detailed emissions data and reduction targets highlights an opportunity for the company to enhance its environmental commitments and transparency in the future.
