About NeatCarbon

NeatCarbon is an early-stage prototype developed by an undergraduate student at IIM Bangalore (Digital Business and Entrepreneurship), exploring the emerging landscape of carbon markets and regulatory frameworks in India.

Purpose

The Indian Carbon Market is currently in a state of rapid evolution. As the country transitions toward the Carbon Credit Trading Scheme (CCTS), the regulatory environment is becoming increasingly complex.

Information regarding these developments is often fragmented across multiple government notifications, technical papers, and institutional websites. NeatCarbon exists to centralize and simplify this information, ensuring that early understanding can reduce confusion as the market matures.

Methodology

The project is built at the intersection of legal reading, writing, design, and research. Every guide and explainer is the result of careful document analysis, focusing on clarity and independence. We prioritize document design as a tool for policy literacy, making technical frameworks accessible without sacrificing precision.

Who Is Behind This

NeatCarbon is being developed by an undergraduate student at IIM Bangalore (Digital Business and Entrepreneurship), focused on translating complex climate governance and market structures into clear, usable public knowledge.

The project is currently being developed thanks to support from beVisioneers: The Mercedes-Benz Fellowship, a global initiative that supports early-stage sustainability projects.

The fellowship is implemented by The DO School Fellowships and supported by Mercedes-Benz. While the program provides structure, mentorship, and a global network, NeatCarbon remains an independent educational prototype. The fellowship does not exert institutional control over the content presented here, and beVisioneers bears no liability for the content, findings, or any outcomes associated with this project.

Transparency

As an early-stage prototype, this platform is under continuous development. The content provided is based on current public information and will evolve as new notifications and rules are released.

We acknowledge that errors may occur in the translation of technical language. These will be corrected over time as the project matures. Feedback from readers, researchers, and policy professionals is encouraged to improve the clarity and accuracy of the resource.

"Our focus remains on education, clarity, and the belief that accessible policy information is a prerequisite for a functioning market."
