Source-reported

The Indian government is engaging in discussions about measuring Scope 3 emissions for exporters. This consideration arises as trade partners impose tighter green requirements globally. Current frameworks focus on direct emissions and exclude indirect ones, making compliance more complex. As a result, industries, especially MSMEs, may face compliance burdens if new requirements are implemented. Ultimately, the aim is to ensure that Indian exporters remain competitive in international markets.
