Today, we concluded our November batch of the Carbon Accounting & #CBAM (the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism) Intermediate Training. 25 participants joined us to deepen their understanding of carbon accounting, including fundamental concepts and product-level footprinting. Participants also gained expertise in the implications of CBAM as exporters to the EU, how to navigate business partner expectations, and CBAM-specific methodology. As India’s export landscape becomes increasingly shaped by global climate regulations, building these competencies is essential for companies to stay competitive, compliant, and future-ready.
