The study is focused on the analysis of various sources of carbon equivalent emissions and their cross-relation with India’s economy. These sources are mainly the sectors of India’s economy that have a significant influence on both economic growth and total emissions creating a paradoxical situation with the existence of inter-dependence among them. Energy and Industrial Sector are identified to be the major source of these emissions and are therefore further analysed in terms of their operations or activities. The impact of CO2 equivalent emissions is noted on both environment and India’s population health.

KEYWORDS:  Urbanisation, CO2 equivalent Emissions, Economic Growth and Sectorial Trends.
