The company's decarbonisation strategy targets climate neutrality by 2040, with an interim goal to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 CO2 emissions by 80% by 2030 against a 2019 baseline. Key initiatives included the installation of a 200 kWp rooftop solar system at the Lucknow facility and the commissioning of a 1,200 KL rainwater harvesting pond at the Jamshedpur facility, which meets approximately 40% of the plant's annual water requirement.
