This edition of The Biological Diversity Act, 2002 incorporates the complete and updated statutory framework governing biodiversity conservation and sustainable use in India. The text includes the Biological Diversity Act, 2002 (Act 18 of 2003), as amended by the Biological Diversity (Amendment) Act, 2023 (Act 10 of 2023), effective from 1-4-2024, ensuring full alignment with the latest legislative developments.

The book is updated with the Biological Diversity Rules, 2024, as amended vide G.S.R. 295(E), dated 6-5-2025, effective from 1-11-2025, along with the Biological Diversity (Access to Biological Resources and Knowledge Associated thereto and Fair and Equitable Sharing of Benefits) Regulations, 2025, notified by F. No. NBA/Tech/EC/9/14/32/, dated 29-4-2025, effective from 30-4-2025.

Presented primarily as a bare act, this edition reproduces the law as enacted, supplemented with short comments for clarity and practical understanding, without extensive interpretation. It serves as an authoritative reference for legal study, regulatory compliance, and examination preparation.

The content comprehensively covers the legal regime relating to conservation of biological diversity, sustainable use of its components, access to biological resources and associated traditional knowledge, benefit-sharing mechanisms, institutional authorities, regulatory procedures, offences, penalties, and enforcement provisions.

This 2026 edition is particularly useful for law students, environmental law practitioners, policymakers, researchers, corporate compliance professionals, and institutions engaged in biodiversity-related activities. It offers a reliable and up-to-date legislative reference for academic, professional, and practical use under India’s biodiversity law framework.
