Project consultations start at midnight IST after the documents are uploaded. Open consultations are listed on the Public Consultation page.

What happens to comments

NCCF forwards reasonable comments, with its own comments, to the VVB and copies the IPP. Before submitting a request, the VVB makes sure each comment is either shown to be unsuitable, irrelevant or immaterial, or addressed through changes.

Comments on methodologies go to cri.methodology@nccf.in with your name, organisation, designation, country and email. The methodology developer must respond to them.

When documents are published again

A project’s documents can be re-uploaded for consultation only if:

• the IPP replaces its VVB contract
• a design change is judged significant by both the VVB and NCCF
• a new methodology causes a significant change in design or end-user service, as judged by both the VVB and NCCF
