Kotak Securities Limited's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Kotak Securities Limited reported a bank emission intensity of approximately 1110 kg CO2e per employee, reflecting their Scope 1 and 2 emissions. This figure represents a slight increase from 2022, where the intensity was about 1060 kg CO2e per employee. For 2024, the bank emission intensity rose to about 1210 kg CO2e per employee. Despite these figures, Kotak Securities has not disclosed specific absolute emissions data for any of the years mentioned, nor have they set any formal reduction targets or climate pledges. The absence of such commitments suggests a need for enhanced climate action within the organisation. As of now, Kotak Securities does not inherit emissions data from a parent company, indicating that their climate impact assessments are independent. The lack of detailed emissions disclosures and reduction initiatives highlights an opportunity for Kotak Securities to strengthen their climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.
