JK Cement has committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2050 for both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions.

The company also has Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) approved near-term targets:

• To reduce gross Scope 1 GHG emissions by 20.4% per tonne of cementitious products by 2030, from a 2020 base year. This target is considered consistent with reductions required to keep warming to well-below 2°C.
• To reduce gross Scope 2 GHG emissions by 44.7% per tonne of cementitious products by 2030, from a 2020 base year. This target is considered consistent with reductions required to keep warming to 1.5°C.

The company has reported progress against its SBTi targets, indicating a 17% decrease in carbon emissions, equivalent to 565 kg CO2 per tonne of cementitious material, from a 2020 base year's emissions of 680 kg CO2 per tonne. This reduction applies to both Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions for the period leading up to 2030. All emissions and climate commitments are directly from J.K. Cement Limited.
