Current Environmental certifications in India

[Chandra Kishore]

IEN Members,

What are the current environmental certifications that are currently recognized or your clients value in different environmental sectors in India? eg. NABET certification, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001 etc.

Do let us know the field and the certification that is most valued in your environmental work. Also, it would be good to know the certification body from which you took this certification. Let's compile a great List!

Thanks
