Frequently asked — Médého

What is CBAM and how does it affect Indian exports to EU?
Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is an EU carbon price on imports of carbon-intensive goods: steel, aluminium, cement, fertilisers, electricity, and hydrogen. Importers must purchase CBAM certificates equivalent to the embedded carbon cost in the imported goods. CBAM transitional period: 2023-2025 (reporting only). Full effect: from 1 January 2026. Indian steel and aluminium exporters to EU face a significant cost unless they can demonstrate low-carbon production.
What is the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) in simple terms?
CBAM is essentially a carbon import tax on certain goods entering the EU. If a steel manufacturer in India has not paid for the carbon emissions in their production process, the EU importer must purchase CBAM certificates equal to the carbon price those emissions would have attracted in the EU' own carbon market (EU ETS). From 2026, the sectors covered are: steel, aluminium, cement, fertilisers, electricity, and hydrogen. Indian manufacturers in these sectors must: (1) calculate embedded carbon in their products, (2) provide carbon data to EU importer, (3) explore low-carbon production to reduce CBAM liability.
How does CBAM affect Indian steel and aluminium exporters?
CBAM (Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism) impact on Indian steel/aluminium: (1) CBAM fully effective from 1 January 2026, (2) EU importers of Indian steel, aluminium, cement, fertilisers, electricity, hydrogen must purchase CBAM certificates equal to embedded carbon cost, (3) If India steel producer has paid carbon price domestically, EU importer can deduct this from CBAM liability, (4) India currently has no national carbon price (carbon trading being developed), (5) Indian steel/aluminium producers should: calculate their specific CO2 emission intensity, invest in energy efficiency and renewable energy to reduce embedded carbon, engage with the EU CBAM portal reporting requirements.
