Many India Inc majors may be Net-Zero by 2050
From investments in improving operational sustainability through higher efficiency and responsible sourcing of materials to enhancing disclosures, top Indian companies are raising their sustainability quotient, but a lot more effort is needed to meet the net-zero targets set for the country.
Several Indian corporate houses have set decarbonisation targets internally to become carbon neutral by 2050 or before. These include Vedanta, Aditya Birla Group, JSW Group, Adani Transmission, Mahindra & Mahindra, and Dalmia Cement, among others. Reliance Industries, the most valuable company in India by market capitalisation, has set a target of net-zero by 2035.
