As RenewCred, one of our #ACTForEnvironment portfolio organisations, gears up for the launch of the Bharat Carbon Credit in October 2025 - it’s incredible to see this partnership with Bartronics come alive!
The initiative aims to help farmers take part in global carbon markets by encouraging sustainable farming methods that create verified carbon credits, thus enabling additional income opportunities for them.
More power to team RenewCred as they pilot India’s first carbon registry to enable climate action at scale!

A huge part of building a sustainable economy is reducing what ends up in landfills. In sectors like agriculture — where scaling down production isn’t always feasible — the answer could lie in transforming waste into value. Meet Brisil and Cancrie, two #ACTForEnvironment portfolio startups, that are leading the way in circular innovation by turning agricultural waste into valuable materials.
Brisil, founded by Tanmay Pandya, converts rice husk ash into green precipitated silica and activated carbon, which are essential ingredients in several manufacturing industries — from tyres to toothpaste to pharmaceuticals.
Cancrie, founded by Akshay Jain and Mahi Singh, gives new life to coconut shells and other biomass by converting them into nano-carbons that enhance battery efficiency and lifespan, powering cleaner, longer-lasting energy storage solutions.

From #decarbonising industries to reimagining circularity, #StartupMahakumbh saw India’s climate innovation ecosystem in full force at the Energy and Climate Tech Pavilion.
#ACTForEnvironment was proud to support this convening that brought together visionary founders, investors, policymakers, and ecosystem enablers shaping India’s green transition.
@alankritakhera, Director, ACT spoke with sustainability leaders and next gen material startups about how for India to lead on materials innovation, we need stronger industry-founder collaboration to crack challenges of performance and scale.
It’s this spirit of deep collaboration that echoed across the day. With powerful insights from leaders across climate finance, circularity, decarbonisation, and mobility—what stood out was the urgency and optimism. From the Climate Wall sparking curiosity to panels driving action, the day was a celebration of bold ideas backed by collective energy.

We’re thrilled to welcome @AltCarbonIndia to our #ACTForEnvironment portfolio! As one of India’s early movers in Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW), they're capturing CO₂ by applying basalt, which is rich in magnesium and calcium—to agricultural lands. This groundbreaking process locks CO₂ in stable carbonates for thousands of years, while enhancing soil health and boosting crop yields.
We’re proud to support their innovative #carbon sequestration process as well as the development of D-CAL to drive transformative, scalable change. The Darjeeling Climate Action Lab (D-CAL) is an advanced MRV (measurement, reporting, and verification) facility designed to reduce credit costs and provide cost-efficient solutions for the broader ERW ecosystem.
