Tata Capital Limited (TCL), the flagship financial services arm of the Tata Group, has received a first-of-its-kind $15.85 million revolving fund from the Green Climate Fund (GCF) under the BEACON INDIA Programme. 

The initiative also includes an additional $3 million grant, aimed at empowering early-stage climate-tech start-ups and strengthening India’s green innovation ecosystem.

Tata Capital Partners with GCF to Drive Climate Innovation

Announced on November 3, 2025, this partnership represents a significant milestone in India’s climate financing journey. The programme, implemented in collaboration with the Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI) and TREC-STEP, will make financing more affordable and accessible to emerging entrepreneurs working in sustainable technology sectors.

The revolving nature of the $15.85 million facility ensures that as start-ups repay their loans, Tata Capital reinvests the funds into new ventures, creating a long-term, self-sustaining financing cycle. The company will also contribute $47.6 million of its own funds to further scale the initiative.

Impact and Sustainability Goals

The initiative is projected to reduce over 11,00,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions and benefit nearly 29,00,000 people through targeted climate adaptation and mitigation measures. By combining strategic capital support with sustainability-focused outcomes, Tata Capital aims to foster a vibrant ecosystem for climate innovation in India.

As per the exchange filings, Rajiv Sabharwal, Managing Director & CEO of Tata Capital, stated, “Tata Capital has always been committed to green initiatives for a sustainable future. Our partnership with the Green Climate Fund to strengthen India’s climate innovation network is another step in that direction. Through this programme, we aim to help emerging entrepreneurs scale their green technologies and make a measurable difference to people and the planet.”
