The fastest way for Indian exporters to generate EU-compliant carbon reports.
Generate official XML + PDF reports in under 60 seconds. No spreadsheets. No guesswork.
Starting in 2026, any Indian company exporting steel, cement, aluminum, fertilizers, or electricity to the EU must submit a CBAM (Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism) compliance report with embedded carbon emission data.
CarbonFile automates this entire process:
| Without CarbonFile | With CarbonFile |
|---|---|
| 📋 Manual spreadsheet calculations | ⚡ Instant automatic calculation |
| ❌ Wrong formula, wrong format | ✅ EU-certified XSD schema output |
| 🕐 Hours of work per quarter | 🚀 Done in under 60 seconds |
| 😰 No audit trail | 🔒 Permanent tamper-proof log |
- ✅ EU-compliant XML — Output follows official EU CBAM schema (Regulation 2023/1773)
- ✅ PDF Report — Human-readable version for internal stakeholders
- ✅ Carbon Calculator — Uses official EU emission factors (NCV × EF methodology)
- ✅ Indirect Emissions — India Grid electricity factor (CEA 0.757 tCO2e/MWh)
- ✅ Live Estimate — Real-time emission preview as you type
- ✅ Audit Vault — Every report timestamped and logged forever
- ✅ Feedback System — Star-rating feedback with backend storage
- ✅ Admin Panel — Secure audit log viewer (stealth access)
The application has 4 screens:
| Screen | Description |
