Environmental & Sustainability

NABET accredited. MoEFCC to SEIAA clearances.

Full-scope EIA, forest clearance, carbon assessment and climate resilience advisory — QCI-NABET accredited for infrastructure, highways, townships and water resource projects across India.

Practice Overview

Technical depth. Delivery certainty.

Our environmental practice provides the full spectrum of regulatory clearance support and sustainability advisory for infrastructure projects — from initial screening and scoping through 12-month baseline monitoring, EIA report preparation, public hearing support and MoEFCC/SEIAA Environmental Clearance. We hold QCI-NABET accreditation for infrastructure (roads and bridges), mining, river valley and township project categories.

Beyond regulatory compliance, our sustainability team designs climate-resilient infrastructure using CMIP6 downscaled hazard data, quantifies Scope 1/2/3 emissions under the GHG Protocol, and develops science-based (SBTi) reduction pathways. Our nature-based solutions team designs urban green infrastructure — bioswales, urban forests, green roofs and wetland restoration — that delivers measurable biodiversity net gain alongside flood-risk and heat-stress reduction.
