Calculate Embedded Emissions for Unwrought Aluminium (HS7601)

Enter your input

Payable emissions (tCO₂e/t)

Total CBAM Cost (€)

Notes:
There may be a difference when calculating the price with respect to import volume, carbon price, and benchmark emissions, as the embedded formula may result in minor variations due to decimal rounding. Therefore, the actual value may vary.

CBAM is applicable to trade volumes starting from 50 metric tonnes. For trade volumes below 50 metric tonnes, CBAM does not apply.

Usage Procedure – How to use the CBAM Calculator Sheet

Enter or update values only in the INPUT
PARAMETERS section (Highlighted in blue) , including
the carbon price, benchmark emissions, CBAM
chargeable percentage (as per the phase-in year),
and imported quantity.

The system will automatically calculate the payable
emissions and the total CBAM cost (€) based on the
inputs provided.

Notes:
• Change any input value to automatically update CBAM cost.
• Formula used: Carbon price × payable emissions × quantity.
• Model aligned with CBAM supplier-side illustrative methodology.

Aluminium prices rose 0.40 per cent to settle at INR 339.80 (USD 3.57), supported by ongoing supply concerns and declining inventories on major metal exchanges.

Inventories in London Metal Exchange (LME) warehouses remained at their lowest level since 2022, while stocks on the Shanghai Futures Exchange (SHFE) fell 4.8 per cent, reflecting continued demand for physical aluminium.

Market sentiment was also influenced by renewed geopolitical concerns after fresh US strikes on Iranian targets, raising the possibility of supply disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz, a key shipping route for aluminium exports from the Gulf region. However, expectations of improving regional supply and easing tensions in the Middle East limited further price gains.

On the supply side, Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) recently restarted its Al Taweelah alumina refinery after a shutdown of around three and a half months. The company expects production to reach 50 per cent of capacity within days and return to full technical capacity by the end of the year, which is expected to gradually improve alumina availability.

Meanwhile, Japanese buyers agreed to pay a premium of USD 395 per metric tonne for aluminium shipments during the July-September quarter, indicating continued demand in the region.

According to the International Aluminium Institute (IAI), global primary aluminium production declined 1.7 per cent year-on-year in May. In contrast, China's aluminium production increased 1.7 per cent, while exports also recorded strong growth, supported by higher overseas prices.

Looking ahead, Morgan Stanley expects the global aluminium market deficit to narrow during 2026 before moving into a surplus in 2027. However, the bank said demand from expanding data centre construction is likely to continue supporting aluminium consumption over the medium term.

From a technical perspective, analysts noted signs of short covering in the market, with immediate support around INR 338.5 (USD 3.56) and resistance near INR 341.3 (USD 3.59).
