For 2024, the company anticipates a total of approximately 3,616,160 kg CO2e in Scope 2 emissions, alongside 313,740 kg CO2e from Scope 1, indicating a potential reduction in overall emissions. Despite these figures, LIC Housing Finance has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit their commitment to addressing climate change. The company’s emissions per unit of revenue have shown improvement, with a reduction in emissions intensity from 2.12e-11 in 2023 to 1.44e-11 in 2024, reflecting a more efficient operation relative to revenue generation. However, without formal reduction initiatives or targets, the long-term impact of these changes remains uncertain.
