UK Recognizes India's Carbon Credit Scheme for Carbon Border Adjustment Relief
The UK has recognized India's Carbon Credit Trading Scheme (CCTS) as a qualifying carbon pricing mechanism under its Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). This recognition allows UK importers to claim relief for carbon costs already paid under India's system, potentially reducing the carbon-related tax burden on Indian exporters of goods like steel, aluminium, and cement. Relief depends on evidence and verification by UK authorities. The move aims to prevent double carbon pricing on Indian exports entering the UK market, with CBAM set to take effect in 2027.
