Adani Cement TNFD: A New Benchmark for India.

Adani Cement, comprising Ambuja Cements and ACC, has become the first company in India’s cement industry to adopt the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) recommendations.

This adoption positions the company as a global leader in embedding nature-positive practices within its business strategy. Through TNFD, Adani Cement commits to identifying, assessing, managing, and disclosing nature-related risks and opportunities, building on its existing climate risk assessments and strong environmental performance. The company has already showcased its sustainability leadership through extensive afforestation efforts (over 7 million trees planted), water-positivity achievements, and biodiversity conservation initiatives across its operations.

A large share of Ambuja and ACC’s product portfolio consists of low-carbon, green cement aimed at reducing environmental impact. Adani Cement is targeting 30% Alternative Fuel Resource (AFR) usage and a 60% green power share by FY28, further advancing sustainable construction and biodiversity protection. This milestone sets a new benchmark for India’s cement sector.
