Diginex Share Price Climbs 6.59% Following PlanA.earth Acquisition, Strengthening ESG Software Market Position

The share price rose to its highest level since the start of the month, climbing 6.59% intraday on Jan. 16. The surge follows Diginex’s strategic acquisition of PlanA.earth, a European leader in AI-driven carbon accounting and decarbonization technology, which closed on Jan. 14. The deal has positioned the firm as a key player in the sustainability software market by integrating Plan A’s tools into its ESG reporting infrastructure, creating a unified platform that operationalizes sustainability across enterprise decision-making.

The acquisition addresses critical gaps in enterprise sustainability management, aligning with tightening global regulations such as the EU’s CSRD and ISSB standards. By merging Plan A’s AI-powered carbon tracking with Diginex’s regulatory reporting capabilities, the company enables real-time emissions tracking and science-based decarbonization planning.

This integration eliminates manual reconciliation and siloed systems, transforming sustainability from a compliance exercise into a core operational layer. The move also strengthens Diginex’s European presence, leveraging Plan A’s established footprint in Germany and other EU markets.

Strong institutional backing has further bolstered investor confidence, with major financial institutions becoming shareholders. The ESG software market, projected to grow to $80–$100 billion by 2030, favors Diginex’s integrated approach over fragmented solutions. The platform’s ability to standardize emissions data across complex value chains and align with global frameworks like GRI and SASB provides a competitive edge. As multinational corporations face heightened scrutiny over Scope 3 emissions, Diginex’s readiness to deliver scalable decarbonization tools positions it to capture significant market share, driving long-term value creation through recurring revenue streams and data-driven services.
