Our Senior Partner, Niti Paul and Associate, Mayank Sharma have recently contributed to the Leading Questions series by Bar and Bench and have authored a Chapter titled, “India’s voluntary carbon market and nature-based solutions: Key legal questions and emerging opportunities”.
The article explores the evolving legal and commercial framework governing nature-based carbon projects in India, including:

• structuring and trading of carbon credits from NbS projects;
