Universal Music India Pvt. Ltd. currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of Universal Music Group N.V., which cascades its climate commitments and performance data. As such, any emissions data or reduction targets would be inherited from Universal Music Group N.V. at a cascade level of 2. At this time, Universal Music India has not outlined specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it appear to have made any formal climate pledges. The absence of documented emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing its climate strategy. In the broader context, Universal Music Group N.V. has been active in addressing climate change, and it is expected that Universal Music India will align with these initiatives as part of its corporate family. However, without specific data or commitments from Universal Music India, it is challenging to provide a detailed overview of its carbon emissions and climate commitments.
