📄 Abstract（原文）
India's developing carbon market alters the legal nature of corporate decarbonization. The Carbon Credit Trading Scheme integrates target setting, trading, compliance verification, exchange oversight, and environmental compensation into a unified regulatory framework. The central concern is whether this framework fosters corporate accountability when the environmental value of a carbon credit is dependent on the value of contested baselines and the discipline of public statements. This Article assesses the Scheme from the standpoint of market-based corporate regulation. It employs a doctrinal analysis of the Energy Conservation Act, 2001, the rules and regulatory frameworks emanating therefrom, company and consumer law, and Indian environmental law. It identifies the Scheme as a market-based regulation of corporate behaviour and argues that the Scheme has developed a legally enforceable framework; however, the Scheme is riddled with the fragmentation of duties, target limitations that are intensity-based, conflicts of interest in the verification process, opacity of registries, and the use of compliance certificates to substantiate an overly broad claim of carbon neutrality or net zero. Environmental compensation does not remedy false data, unverified certificates, or mitigate the effects of misleading statements. For a credible regime, public traceability, oversight by the board, and verifier independence, integrated enforcement, and a framework for claims that distinguishes operational reductions from offsets are required. These reforms would achieve the balanced state of efficiency of the carbon market and the integrity of the environment and restore consumer and investor confidence.
