The company has disclosed emissions data for both Scope 1 and Scope 2, but there is no available data for Scope 3 emissions. For the following year, 2024, emissions increased, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 14,730 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 1,251,930 kg CO2e, resulting in total emissions of around 1,266,660 kg CO2e. This indicates a significant rise in emissions, particularly in Scope 2. Poonawalla Fincorp has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, nor have they committed to Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Overall, while Poonawalla Fincorp has made strides in disclosing its emissions, further commitments and reduction strategies will be essential for aligning with industry standards and addressing climate change effectively.
