Carbon Credits in India: The CCTS and How Businesses Can Benefit
S
Statura Team
The Carbon Credit Trading Scheme (CCTS) establishes India's regulated carbon market, where entities earn or buy credits based on emission-intensity performance.
Two mechanisms
- Compliance market: obligated sectors receive intensity targets and trade Carbon Credit Certificates
- Offset mechanism: non-obligated entities can register projects and earn credits
Who can benefit
Energy-intensive industries can monetise efficiency gains, while renewable, afforestation and waste projects can generate offset credits for sale.
Getting started
- Measure your baseline emissions
- Identify reduction or offset opportunities
- Register projects and get them verified
- Trade credits on the exchange
Statura advises on carbon strategy, measurement and credit participation.
