In 2025, Shalimar Paints Limited reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,436,810 kg CO2e in India, comprising 460,860 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 2,036,950 kg CO2e from Scope 2 emissions. This data reflects a commitment to transparency in their climate impact, although no Scope 3 emissions data was disclosed. For the previous year, 2024, the company recorded total emissions of about 2,487,400 kg CO2e in India, with 129,700 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 2,384,700 kg CO2e from Scope 2. In 2023, emissions were slightly higher at approximately 2,305,490 kg CO2e, with 789,720 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 2,227,770 kg CO2e from Scope 2. Despite these figures, Shalimar Paints Limited has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments. The absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets indicates a potential area for future development in their sustainability strategy. The company is currently focused on improving its emissions intensity, with reported values of 0.5 kg CO2e per kilolitre of electricity in 2025. Overall, while Shalimar Paints Limited has made strides in emissions reporting, further commitments and reduction strategies would enhance their climate action profile.
