ETS status

No formal ETS; coal cess (~$4.80/ton) + PAT energy-efficiency scheme; national carbon market in development

Exposed operators

Coal India, NTPC Limited, Reliance Industries, Tata Steel, Adani Group

Trade system impact

CBAM (EU Carbon Border Adjustment) will impose carbon costs on Indian steel/cement/aluminum exports starting 2026. Creates de facto carbon price on a subset of Indian output regardless of domestic policy.

Proof-pack relevance

CBAM-exposed Indian exporters need proof-pack-equivalent disclosure to avoid defaulting to worst-case CBAM coefficients. Supply-side adoption driver is real and immediate.
