In 2023, Mahanagar Gas reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,141,745,000 kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 232,847,000 kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 91,526,000 kg CO2e, and significant Scope 3 emissions totalling around 2,817,372,000 kg CO2e. The company has shown a trend of increasing emissions over the years, with total emissions recorded at approximately 2,327,658,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and 1,678,648,000 kg CO2e in 2021. Despite this increase, Mahanagar Gas has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate strategy. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that while Mahanagar Gas is aware of its carbon footprint, it may need to enhance its climate commitments to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability.
