* Total GHG Emissions (excluding Biogenic Emissions) = Scope 1+ Scope 2+ Scope 3
** Total Rainwater Harvesting Potential (RWH) created for the year = RWH potential created within ITC Units + RWH potential created through watershed projects cumulative for the year
*** Waste Recycling Footprint (%) = (Waste recycled + external waste used as raw material) *100/Total waste generated in ITC Business Units
