In 2023, KCP's carbon emissions in India totalled approximately 2,259,671,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 114,369,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This reflects a slight increase in Scope 1 emissions from 2,047,904,000 kg CO2e in 2022, while Scope 2 emissions rose from 108,381,000 kg CO2e in the previous year. KCP has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data. Currently, KCP has not set any specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor are there any initiatives reported under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of reduction targets indicates a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. KCP's emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, and all figures are reported directly from The KCP Limited. As the company continues to assess its environmental impact, establishing clear reduction goals could enhance its commitment to sustainability and align with industry standards.
