Environmental credits · Consultation & audit

Turn verified environmental work into EPR, carbon and water credits.

MPRO 9 helps municipalities, recyclers and private entities find the credits they qualify for, register them on the right portal or registry, and build the evidence verifiers ask for. We also audit EPR, carbon and water claims before a regulator or verifier does.

Clients across India and the UAE, served from our offices in Dubai and Mysuru.

Who we help

Three kinds of clients, three routes to credit value

The credits a city can claim are different from those open to a recycler or a brand owner. Choose your organisation to see where value usually sits and how we help.

For cities, towns and villages

Municipal corporations, municipalities, town and gram panchayats, development authorities and the agencies that run their waste and water services.

A good first step

A data and eligibility review of one MRF, compost plant, STP or ward.

Book this review

Where credit value usually sits

  • Dry waste recovered at MRFs and sold to registered recyclers, who generate EPR certificates
  • Wet waste composted or digested into biogas, which avoids methane
  • Legacy dumpsites where landfill gas can be captured
  • Treated sewage reused by industry or city services, and rainwater harvesting and recharge
  • Urban plantations and lake or mangrove restoration

How we help

  • Baseline your waste, water and green-cover data and identify eligible activities
  • Test regulatory surplus and additionality before you commit effort
  • Structure agreements with recyclers, producers and buyers so the local body keeps its data and its share of value
  • Set up digital MRV on WASTRAQ or your existing systems
  • Prepare DPRs and project documents, and support registration and verification

Credits we work with

Each credit has its own rulebook, registry and unit

We match your activity to the instrument that fits it, and we tell you when none does.

Consultation services

From first screening to issued credit

Take one service or the whole route. Every engagement starts with what you already do and the data you already hold.

Eligibility screening

Which credits and obligations apply to your activities, sites and region.

Baseline and feasibility

Historical data, baseline scenario, additionality and a clear go or no-go.

Registration

CPCB EPR portals, CCTS offset projects and voluntary registries.

Project documentation

Concept notes, project design documents, monitoring plans and DPRs.

MRV design

What to measure, how often, with which instrument, and who signs it off.

Verification support

Coordination with verifiers and auditors, and responses to their findings.

Issuance and transfer

Registry accounts, certificate transfers and retirement records.

Compliance filings

EPR annual returns, recycled-content and reuse evidence, and monitoring reports.

Audit services

Audit your claims before a verifier does

The Plastic Waste Management (Amendment) Rules, 2026 allow EPR claims to be verified by designated agencies and registered environment auditors, and the Environment Audit Rules, 2025 assign those auditors through a randomised process. Carbon and water credits face independent verification too. Our audits test the same evidence while you still have time to fix it.

EPR compliance and certificate audit

For producers, importers, brand owners and processors

  • Obligation calculation and category mapping
  • Certificate trail: which plant generated it, for which quantity
  • Processor capacity checked against certificates generated
  • Recycled-content, reuse and labelling evidence
  • Annual return reconciliation

Carbon audit

GHG inventories and project pre-verification

  • Scope 1, 2 and 3 inventory against ISO 14064-1 and the GHG Protocol
  • Baseline, additionality and leakage checks for projects
  • Monitoring data, meter calibration and calculation review
  • Readiness for accredited carbon verification agencies under CCTS, and for Verra and Gold Standard verifiers

Water audit

Water balance and credit pre-verification

  • Intake, use, discharge and reuse balance
  • Meter placement, calibration and data gaps
  • Evidence of gainful end use for treated water
  • Gap check against ISO 46001 and registry requirements

Credit due diligence

For buyers of certificates and credits

  • Registry status, vintage, methodology and retirement checks
  • Source plant or project checks for EPR certificates
  • Double-counting and double-claiming risk
  • A plain-language risk rating before you pay
Findings reportEach issue graded by severity, with the requirement it fails.
Evidence indexEvery claimed quantity linked to the record that proves it.
Corrective action planOwners, dates and the evidence that will close each gap.
Verifier-ready fileAn organised file for the regulator, auditor or verifier.

Our audits are independent pre-verification and due-diligence reviews. They do not replace statutory verification by CPCB, State Pollution Control Boards, designated agencies or registered environment auditors, or validation and verification by accredited bodies under CCTS and voluntary standards.

Pathway finder

Which credits could your work qualify for?

Choose your organisation and tick what you do. The finder lists the routes worth screening and the evidence each one needs. It is a starting point for a conversation, not a decision on eligibility.

What you do
Routes worth screening

Indicative only. Eligibility depends on the current rules, the methodology, your baseline and verification. We confirm it in the eligibility review.

Digital MRV

Evidence a verifier can follow

A credit is only as strong as the records behind it. Our platforms capture each quantity with its time, place and source, so the audit trail exists before anyone asks for it.

What we do not do

  • We do not issue, certify or guarantee certificates or credits. Regulators, registries and accredited verifiers do that.
  • We do not promise volumes, prices or revenue. They depend on the rules, the methodology, verification and the market.
  • We do not act as your statutory verifier. Our audits prepare you for one.
  • We do not force a fit. If an activity is already required by law or fails additionality, we tell you early.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Rules change. The references on this page were last reviewed on 27 October 2026. For background on how a local body can combine these credits, read our article on the Sustainable Tech Park and EPR, carbon and water credits.

Does MPRO 9 issue or guarantee credits?

No. EPR certificates are generated and recorded on CPCB's portals, and carbon, water and plastic credits are issued by their registries after independent verification. We prepare your registrations, evidence and documents, audit them, and support you through verification. We do not guarantee that a credit will be issued, or its volume or price.

Who verifies EPR certificates and environmental credits?

For EPR, CPCB and the State Pollution Control Boards oversee compliance, and the Plastic Waste Management (Amendment) Rules, 2026 provide for verification by designated agencies and registered environment auditors. Under India's Carbon Credit Trading Scheme, verification is carried out by accredited carbon verification agencies. Voluntary standards such as Verra and Gold Standard use accredited validation and verification bodies, and the Universal Water Registry issues water credits after a verification report.

What does a credit-readiness audit cover?

We test your data, documents and field evidence against the rule or standard you are claiming under. You receive a findings report graded by severity, an evidence index and a corrective action plan, so you go into a filing or verification knowing where you stand.

Can a municipality earn carbon credits from waste it already has to manage by law?

Sometimes. Most standards require a project to go beyond what the law already requires, known as regulatory surplus, and to show it would not have happened without credit revenue, known as additionality. India's Solid Waste Management Rules, 2026 encourage local bodies to explore carbon credits, but each project still has to pass these tests. We check them before you commit time or money.

Can the same tonne of plastic earn an EPR certificate and a plastic credit?

Claiming the same environmental benefit twice is double counting, and regulators and registries treat it seriously. Whether both instruments can apply depends on each standard's rules and on who holds each claim. We map every tonne to a single claim, or document how the claims are kept apart.

How long does it take to receive credits?

It depends on the route. EPR work follows the compliance year and its annual returns. Carbon and water projects take longer, because they need registration or validation, a monitoring period and verification before the first issuance. The pathway report gives you a realistic timeline for your case.

What should we prepare for the first consultation?

A short description of your activities and sites, any registrations or consents you hold, and whatever records you have for the last 12 months, such as weighbridge slips, invoices, meter readings or plantation records. Incomplete data is fine. Finding the gaps is part of the work.

Do we have to use WASTRAQ, KarbanTraq or Watraq?

No. Our platforms make evidence capture easier, but we can work with your existing systems, spreadsheets and documents and map them to what the standard requires.

Do you work outside India?

Yes. MPRO 9 is headquartered in Dubai, with an office in Mysuru. In the UAE we support emissions reporting under Federal Decree-Law No. 11 of 2024 and carbon credit projects on international standards. Projects in other countries are assessed case by case.

How are fees structured?

Each engagement is quoted after the discovery call, based on its scope: the number of sites, the credit routes and standards involved, and the monitoring needed. You receive the scope and fee in writing before any work begins.
