Message from DG NPC

The designation of the National Productivity Council (NPC) as the Environment Audit Designated Agency (EADA) by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change marks a significant milestone in strengthening India’s environmental governance framework.

This recognition reflects the Government of India’s confidence in NPC’s institutional strength, technical expertise, and extensive nationwide presence to operationalise a robust and credible environmental audit ecosystem. NPC brings decades of experience in productivity enhancement, sustainability advisory, and large-scale capacity building, enabling it to deliver systems that are transparent, technology-driven, and aligned with global best practices.

The Ministry’s vision to institutionalise standardized environmental auditing will enhance compliance, promote accountability, and improve transparency across sectors, thereby reinforcing regulatory effectiveness and environmental stewardship. From a national perspective, this initiative represents a forward-looking step towards integrating sustainability with economic growth. NPC remains committed to executing this mandate with the highest standards of professionalism, innovation, and integrity, and to developing a world-class environmental audit framework that strengthens India’s global credibility while contributing meaningfully to sustainable development.
