Environmental Law

Environmental Law in India governs the protection, conservation, and sustainable use of natural resources. At TMS Law Associates, we provide legal advisory, compliance guidance, and litigation support to individuals, corporations, industries, and NGOs involved in environmental matters.

We assist clients in aligning their operations with national and state environmental laws, responding to notices from regulatory bodies, and defending their rights before environmental authorities and courts.

India has a robust legal framework for environmental protection, including statutes like the Environment (Protection) Act, Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, Forest Conservation Act, and rules under the National Green Tribunal Act.

Our firm advises clients on environmental clearances, regulatory compliance, pollution control, and litigation before the National Green Tribunal (NGT), High Courts, and other regulatory bodies.
