Environmental / Social Impact Assessment and Permitting
The assessment and documentation a project needs to secure environmental clearance and move forward.
What’s included
- Environmental Impact Assessment to India's EIA Notification requirements.
- Social Impact Assessment and stakeholder consultation management.
- IFC Performance Standards and Equator Principles alignment for internationally financed projects.
- Environmental clearance and permit application preparation.
- Technical studies coordination across air, water, ecology, and noise.
- Regulatory liaison and post-clearance compliance monitoring.
Before many significant developments can proceed, they need to demonstrate — often through a formal, regulated process — that their environmental and social impacts have been properly assessed and appropriately managed. This service covers that assessment and the permitting process it feeds into: evaluating a proposed project's likely impacts on air, water, land, ecology, noise, and surrounding communities, and preparing the documentation required to secure environmental clearance and other regulatory permits.
We prepare Environmental and Social Impact Assessments in accordance with India's Environmental Impact Assessment Notification requirements, and, for projects involving international lenders or investors, in alignment with IFC Performance Standards and the Equator Principles — the benchmark international financiers increasingly expect regardless of local regulatory minimums. This includes managing the technical studies, stakeholder consultation, and regulatory liaison that a robust impact assessment and permitting process demands.
