Indian Bank's reported carbon emissions

As of the latest available data, Indian Bank does not report any specific carbon emissions figures, indicating a lack of disclosed emissions data. Consequently, there are no recorded Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions figures to analyse. Furthermore, the bank has not established any documented reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. In the absence of specific emissions data, it is essential to note that Indian Bank's climate commitments and initiatives remain unspecified. This lack of transparency may reflect broader industry trends where financial institutions are increasingly being called upon to disclose their environmental impact and set measurable targets for carbon reduction. Overall, Indian Bank's current climate strategy appears to be underdeveloped, with no clear emissions data or reduction initiatives reported. This situation highlights the need for enhanced climate action and accountability within the banking sector, particularly as stakeholders increasingly prioritise sustainability and environmental responsibility.
