Why Indian suppliers in particular
India is one of the biggest non-EU sources for the EU on CBAM-scope goods — flat and long steel, forgings, fasteners, castings and secondary aluminium. Response rates are low when the request comes as an English spreadsheet.
What CBAMWorks changes
- Language. Supplier forms in Hindi, Punjabi, Gujarati and English.
- Channel. WhatsApp first, email as backup — approved templates and automatic reminders.
- Format. Suppliers photograph bills; the engine reads them; the supplier confirms every value.
- Trust. Suppliers see which EU buyers they’re sharing with and can download the Commission template for others.
Clusters we focus on
- Ludhiana — fasteners (7318), forgings (7326), hand tools.
- Rajkot — grey-iron and SG-iron castings, machined auto parts (CN 7325, 7326).
- Jamnagar — brass and metal parts; check each product against Annex I before assuming CBAM scope.
Verification in India
As of October 2026, no Indian conformity-assessment body has yet been recognised for EU CBAM verification. Site visits are done by EU-accredited verifiers travelling to India. CBAMWorks batches visits by cluster so cost per installation is reasonable.
