In 2025, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Biocon amounted to 142,043 metric tons of CO2 equivalent. This figure includes both direct emissions from owned or controlled sources (Scope 1) and indirect emissions from purchased energy (Scope 2).a
Compared to 2024, the total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of Biocon increased by 4.6%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing its emissions from its core operations.a
In 2025, the total Scope 1 emissions of Biocon were 27,951 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Since 2021, Biocon's Scope 1 emissions have decreased by 50.08%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 1 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2024), Biocon's Scope 1 emissions decreased by 12%, highlighting the company's efforts to lower direct emissions from assets it owns or controls.a
In 2025, Biocon reported Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 114,092 tCO₂e without specifying the calculation method.a
Since 2021, Biocon's Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (Unspecified Calculation Method) have decreased by 10.54%, reflecting a declining long-term trend in Scope 2 emissions over time.ab
Compared to the previous year (2024), Biocon's Scope 2 emissions (Unspecified Calculation Method) have remained relatively stable, indicating that Biocon's emissions have plateaued with no significant change in its energy consumption footprint.a
In 2025, Biocon reported its Scope 2 emissions using an unspecified methodology.a
In 2025, Biocon reported 283,819 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) of Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, representing indirect emissions across its upstream and downstream value chain.a
The 2025 disclosure of Biocon includes a breakdown across 9 of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol, up from 0 in 2024, reflecting improved emissions accounting practices and greater transparency across the company's value chaina
In 2025, Biocon reported total Scope 3 emissions of 283,819 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e).a
Approximately 99.69% of these emissions originated from upstream activities such as purchased goods and capital goods, while 0.31% came from downstream activities like product use, distribution, and end-of-life treatment.a
Compared to the previous year (2024), Biocon's Scope 3 emissions increased by 14.11%, suggesting that the company faced challenges in reducing emissions across its value chain.a
In 2025, Biocon reported emissions for 9 out of the 15 Scope 3 categories defined by the GHG Protocol.a
This partial disclosure allows for some insight into the company's indirect impacts.
In 2025, the largest contributors to Biocon's Scope 3 emissions were:a
In 2025, Biocon reported Scope 1 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 27,951 tCO₂e and total revenues of USD 1,762 millions. This translates into an emissions intensity of 15.87 tCO₂e per millions USD.a
In 2025, Biocon reported a Scope 1 emissions intensity of 15.87 tCO₂e per millions USD. Compared to the peer group median of 3.8, this places the company above its industry benchmark, indicating it is less carbon-efficient than most competitors.a
In 2025, Biocon ranked 20 out of 23 companies in its industry peer group, based on Scope 1 emissions intensity (measured in tCO₂e per millions USD).a
This places Biocon among the least efficient performers, with one of the highest emissions intensities in its sector.a
In 2025, Biocon reported a total carbon footprint of 425,862 metric tons of CO₂ equivalent (tCO₂e) across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions. This represents a 10.75% increase compared to 2024, suggesting a rise in emissions across its operations or value chain.a
The largest contributor to Biocon's total carbon footprint was Scope 3 emissions, accounting for 66.65% of the company's total carbon footprint, followed by Scope 2 emissions at 26.79%.a
