Additional Secretary in the Depaartment of Commerce Darpan Jain said there are provisions, such as extension of flexibility to India by the EU, if the 27-nation bloc extends relaxation to other countries. CBAM (carbon border adjustment mechanism) took a lot of negotiating capital. "So, there are separate provisions, and we also have a provision in which we can engage with EU authorities on taking into account the carbon price, which is paid in India. As you would know, India also is developing its own carbon pricing mechanism. So, how to offset what is paid in India from what is paid in Europe, so even that is part of it," Jain noted.
