Connecting the dots - Climate. Capital. Community. Code. We are Darukaa.Earth — a category-defining nature-tech & climate finance company. Incubated at the IIT Bombay campus and backed by IIM Visakhapatnam, we’re building Global South’s first intelligence layer for natural capital — where technology, ecology, and finance converge to create measurable, investable biodiversity impact.

Our offerings & platform transforms biodiversity and carbon data into actionable, finance-grade intelligence, enabling TNFD, CSRD, and SBTN-aligned insights for companies, investors, and project developers. We have entered an inflection point — scaling from flagship pilots to enterprise deployments — and we’re hiring a Founder’s Office Associate who can help scale our climate mission into market momentum. Our Value chains include:

- Environmental reporting
- Turnkey projects for Biodiversity mapping & Nature conservation.
- Nature Finance projects
