Government report: India's emission intensity decreased by 33% between 2005 and 2019.

India's GDP increased at a cumulative annual growth rate of 7% between 2005 and 2019, but the country's emissions increased at a rate of only 4% annually, resulting in a 33% decrease in GDP emission intensity.

In 2005 and 2019, India cut its GDP emission intensity by 33%, meeting the target 11 years ahead of schedule, according to a government report.

The report also stated that India's GDP increased at a cumulative annual growth rate of 7% during this time, but the country's emissions increased by only 4% annually, indicating that the nation has been successful in separating its economic expansion from greenhouse gas emissions that warm the planet.

During the current climate talks in Dubai, the report known as "The Third National Communication to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change" will be presented to the UN climate change body, according to officials.

A nation's greenhouse gas emissions, susceptibility to climate change, and the steps it is taking to reduce emissions and prepare for its effects are all included in national communications.
