Not a Recycleinc SKU. Forestry / compensatory plantation file.
MoEFCC · tradable incentive · not tCO₂e
The Green Credit Programme is a domestic incentive notified by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change. It rewards specified environmental activities — including waste management — with tradable credits. A carbon credit is a greenhouse-gas unit. Mixing them in one campus slide is how CFOs get embarrassed.
Activity sectors (as notified — confirm current gazette)
Not a Recycleinc SKU. Forestry / compensatory plantation file.
Water conservation / harvesting. Adjacent to BWG’s 40 kL/day test, not our offtake.
Not our vertical.
Collection, segregation, processing, recycling. This is the lane: four-stream, weighment, authorised sinks, Box Series, dry offtake.
Industrial / city air. RDF may sit nearby; we match fuel, we do not run a stack.
Not our lane. Chennai / coastal siting is a CRZ file, not a van route.
Product labelling. PIBOs may care; Recycleinc is not the Bureau of Indian Standards.
Campus construction. Four-stream retrofit is operations, not a green-building rating.
Activity evidence: kg by stream, four-stream score, processor invoices, GPS/photo custody, GST. That is what an administrator can audit. Registration, credit calculation, issuance and trading sit with the designated Green Credit Programme administrator — not with a Chennai aggregator.
If a ULB, industrial estate or PIBO wants Recycleinc on that file, we act as the measurement contractor. We will not sell “green credits from your PET bottles” on WhatsApp.
