インド繊維産業の5社（2020-2025年）のサステナビリティ開示データを分析し、脱炭素戦略の類型（変革型、効率型、規模型、コンプライアンス型、ブランド型）を特定。再生可能エネルギー導入や循環経済の進展がある一方、Scope 3報告の不足や資本制約などの課題を指摘。
English
Analyzing sustainability disclosures of five Indian textile firms (2020-2025), this study identifies five decarbonization archetypes: transformational, efficiency-based, scale-driven, compliance-driven, and brand-driven. While progress in renewables and circular economy is noted, challenges like limited Scope 3 reporting and capital constraints persist.

📄 Abstract（原文）
The global textile industry remains a structurally carbon-intensive sector, with substantial contributions to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions arising from energy-intensive production processes, intricate supply chains, and resource-dependent raw material systems. In India, the textile sector functions as a pivotal economic driver while simultaneously representing a significant environmental burden, contributing an estimated 60–70 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalent annually. Despite mounting regulatory and market pressures to adopt sustainable practices, firm-level empirical evidence on decarbonisation strategies remains fragmented and contextually heterogeneous.,This study develops and empirically validates a multi-firm analytical framework to examine carbon emission profiles and mitigation strategies within the Indian textile industry. Leveraging secondary data from sustainability disclosures and annual reports of five major firms—Arvind Ltd, Vardhman Textiles Ltd, Trident Ltd, Welspun Living Ltd, and Raymond Lifestyle Ltd—over the 2020–2025 period, the research integrates ESG metrics with sectoral emission mapping to uncover structural and strategic variations in decarbonisation approaches. Analytical techniques include comparative emission profiling, pathway classification, and cross-firm evaluation of mitigation efficacy.,Findings indicate that decarbonisation is non-uniform across firms, with strategic pathways shaped by organizational scale, technological capabilities, market orientation, and global integration. Five dominant decarbonisation archetypes emerge: transformational (innovation-led), efficiency-based (cost-optimization), scale-driven (operational intensity focus), compliance-driven (export-oriented ESG alignment), and brand-driven (supply-chain sustainability emphasis). While leading firms exhibit progress in renewable energy adoption, circular economy practices, and process innovation, systemic challenges—including limited Scope 3 emission reporting, capital constraints, and technological adoption barriers—persist, hindering an industry-wide low-carbon transition.
