Textile CCTS Targets: Dashes and Decimal Errors in the Gazette
33 textile plants print a dash for their FY2025-26 CCTS target, one row breaks the pattern and one baseline looks like a decimal error. A Gazette audit.
We went through the textile table in Gazette G.S.R. 25(E), row by row: 173 plants. Three findings stand out. If your plant is on this list, check your row.
Finding 1: 33 Plants Print a Dash
33 of 173 plants show "–" instead of an FY2025-26 target: fibre 10 of 33, spinning 9 of 60, composite 8 of 46, processing 6 of 34. The likeliest reading is no first-year target, but the Gazette does not say so.
Finding 2: The Dashes Cluster by State
All 33 sit in six state codes. Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu has 10 of its 17 plants with a dash; Telangana and Karnataka 3 of 4 each. The other ten state codes have none. All 33 still have FY2026-27 targets: about 192,000 tCO₂e, or 16% of the textile total.
Finding 3: Two Rows That Don't Fit
DNH Spinners, Silvassa (TXTOE095DN). Printed path: 0.3927 → 0.3890 → 0.2409, a 0.9% cut then 38.7%. Across the rest of the Second Schedule, the pro-rata first-year step (Note 3) is 11–14% of the second-year step; here it is 2.4%. Its block pattern suggests about 0.366. The gap is roughly 27,800 tCO₂e a year.
Grasim Century Rayon, Shahad (TXTOE127MH). Baseline printed as .94244 beside targets of 9.3345 and 8.7787. It is most likely 9.4244, a misplaced decimal point.
What Affected Plants Should Do
Write to BEE and MoEFCC for clarification before your first filing, and keep a copy for your ACVA. A wrong number decides whether you earn or buy CCCs. Why every tonne matters: the zero-credit line. The same Gazette sets a uniform 3.55% cut for petrochemicals.
ICT helps textile units check every Gazette number: row-level target review, BEE query drafting and monthly dMRV, before an error becomes a bill.
