What the Workspace Is Actually For

CAFE compliance has historically been a once-a-year filing exercise built in Excel by the OEMs’ emissions and certification team. TerraNova for CAFE turns it into a continuously updated operating picture – one that survives the CAFE-II to CAFE 2027 regime change, the WLTP transition when MoRTH eventually notifies it, the potential gaps between the September 2025 published draft and the February / April 2026 revised drafts circulated to industry, and the new credit market that opens up alongside.
It does this through six steps that mirror the TerraNova process across all compliance markets – adapted for the specific moving parts of India CAFE.

Built for the Four Desks That Own CAFE

One workspace, four operating views – each desk sees the same fleet ledger through its own lens.

Compliance / Emissions Heads

Own the Section 4(8) pi filings. Variant-level ledger, dual-cycle reporting, BEE-format submission — continuously, not annually.

Filings Right, First Time

Treasury
Heads

Own the penalty and credit-market exposure. Section 26 schedule, bank-vs-sell calls, scenario clearing prices.

Exposure Priced, Not Guessed

Strategy
Heads

Own the decarb-lever and BEV-ramp portfolio. MAC-ranked sequencing that re-ranks when a draft layer moves.

Lowest-Cost Path to Compliance

Investor
Relations

Own the external narrative. Labelled numbers — draft, model, assumption — that survive diligence.

A Narrative That Holds Up

Reporting, without the hassle.

Type in or upload your last-reported iCAT sheet – CNF, c i and v i auto-computed. TerraNova generates the AIS-137 Appendices in official format and establishes your position today.
  • Variant-level fleet ledger, always current
  • MIDC + WLTP values in one place
  • Direct BEE-format reporting pack
  • Direct BEE-format reporting pack

The same obligation - planned, priced, a step ahead.

Run CAFE on one live, market-linked workspace instead of spreadsheets. Illustrative for a large PV-OEM:
Reporting effort
- 0 %
~2,000 work-hours back each year
Settlement cost
- 0 %
The least-cost path, not the ceiling
CAFE-III surplus
+ 0 g
Short to long – a credit seller by FY27
Reporting effort
₹ 0 /g
~2,000 work-hours back each year
Illustrative model for demonstration – not a named-customer result. CAFE-III figures are draft; final rules and each OEM’s fleet will change the numbers.
