Why carbon credits now

The carbon market stopped being optional

In short: compliance is live, a domestic carbon price is arriving in 2026, and export carbon costs have already begun. Acting early is cheaper than reacting late.

~490 entities · 7 sectors

CCTS compliance is live

India’s Carbon Credit Trading Scheme now sets greenhouse-gas emission-intensity targets for obligated entities across energy-intensive sectors, with compliance obligations running from FY2025–26.

First CCC trading ~Oct 2026

A real carbon price is forming

Carbon Credit Certificate (CCC) trading on the power exchanges is expected to begin around October 2026 — turning emission intensity into a tradable asset or liability on your balance sheet.

15–22% price pressure

CBAM is now charging carbon

The EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism entered its definitive phase on 1 January 2026, putting an estimated 15–22% effective price pressure on Indian steel, aluminium and cement exports.

Net zero 2070 · −45% by 2030

The direction is set

India targets net zero by 2070 and a roughly 45% cut in emissions intensity by 2030. Investors, lenders and global buyers are already pricing that trajectory into their decisions.

Market context as of June 2026. Carbon-market rules and timelines evolve — we confirm current obligations for your specific case.

Industries we serve

Carbon strategy tuned to your sector

Every sector faces a different mix of compliance, export and disclosure pressure. We tailor the work to yours — from hard-to-abate manufacturing to farmer-led agriculture.

Cement

Cement is both an obligated CCTS sector and a CBAM-covered export — a double carbon exposure we help producers manage from baseline to certificate cost.

Sector guidance

Steel & Aluminium

Iron, steel and aluminium carry India’s largest CBAM exposure and sit inside the CCTS — we help producers measure, report and cut embedded emissions before certificate costs bite.

Sector guidance

Textiles & Apparel

Global apparel brands now require Scope 3 emissions data and reduction targets from their suppliers — we help Indian textile exporters measure, disclose and decarbonise.

Sector guidance

Agriculture & FPOs

Agriculture, agroforestry and land-use projects can earn voluntary carbon credits today — we help farmers and FPOs run credible programmes that actually pay farmers.

Sector guidance

Exporters (CBAM)

Any Indian exporter of CBAM goods to the EU now faces embedded-emissions reporting and, from 2026, certificate costs — we make compliance accurate and the carbon liability smaller.

Frequently asked questions

A carbon credit consultant helps organisations measure their emissions, meet carbon regulations, develop or buy carbon offset projects, and monetize the resulting credits. At Carbon Credit Consulting we cover the full journey — from GHG accounting and CCTS/CBAM compliance to high-integrity offset project development and credit sales.

If you are an energy-intensive industry in India you may be an obligated entity under the CCTS, which began compliance obligations from FY2025–26 for around 490 entities across seven sectors. If you export steel, aluminium, cement, fertiliser, hydrogen or electricity to the EU, you are affected by CBAM, whose definitive phase began on 1 January 2026. A free consultation will confirm your exposure.

Both. As a sister concern of Agpro Consulting, we have deep agricultural roots and regularly work with farmers and Farmer Producer Organisations (FPOs) on soil-carbon and agroforestry projects, alongside corporates, exporters and project developers.

We are based in India and serve clients across India and global supply chains. Our work spans Indian compliance markets (CCTS, BRSR) and international frameworks and registries such as CBAM, Verra and Gold Standard.
