The Struggle Between Indian Manufacturers & Sustainability

The deployment of green technologies presents major challenges for Indian manufacturers, particularly SMEs.

The Indian manufacturers are being forced to decrease their carbon-foot print. This is happening because of the growing government focus on the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) rules. And due to the evolving global standards and government regulations towards emissions and waste disposal are becoming stricter. Non-compliance could result in fines and reputation damage for a company.

The main challenge is with the costs. Several green technologies are also relatively expensive due to high upfront capital costs for SMEs that do not have large amounts of cash at their disposal. Moreover, many of the manufacturing processes in India are energy-intensive, resulting in high greenhouse gas and carbon emissions.
