From the floor
“We don't have an ESG team. We have a plant manager. We need someone who runs CBAM, not a dashboard to operate.”

CarbonSettle
A named expert runs your CBAM. India's best engine works underneath.
Best for
Indian exporters without a dedicated ESG / sustainability team.
Pre-verified by a top-3 EU auditor, declarant-ready on day one
Named expert per account; chat, ERP or hands-off — your call
Vernacular supplier outreach across 9 Indian languages
< 48 hr first report; transparent INR pricing per consignment
CBAM-only, every shipment. Not one tab in an ESG suite.
Sentra.world is a multi-framework sustainability platform — great for an ESG team tracking GHG, BRSR, CSRD and CBAM together. But Indian export houses don't have that team. They have a plant manager and an export ops lead. CarbonSettle is built for them: one named expert, CBAM only, every consignment.
“A platform without a person isn't a service. It's homework with a login.”
Sentra ships software. CarbonSettle ships finished reports, pre-verified by a top-3 EU auditor, with your buyer's declarant copied in.

What you actually get
Less dashboard. More report on your buyer's desk.
01
A named CBAM expert
One person owns your file end-to-end. They visit your plant, collect from handwritten logs, chase suppliers in their language, and reply to your buyer's declarant in English. Sentra ships software; we ship a person.
02
India's best CBAM engine
AI fills the report from chat, ERP, voice notes, or photos of bills. Same platform, three modes. 24×7 tracking ranks every cost-reduction lever in ₹/tCO₂ — beyond CBAM, into pricing intelligence.
03
Pre-verified, declarant-ready
A top-3 EU auditor pre-verifies every report before it leaves us. Your buyer's declarant uses your actuals from day one. The documented India HRC scenario saves about Rs 96 L per 1,000 t.
