31. 31
Design team may encounter certain
challenges in applying or interpreting a
mandatory requirement or a credit.
Cases where the project can opt to achieve
the same intent through a different compliance
route.
Process of Credit Interpretation Ruling (CIR) is
to ensure that interpretations are consistent
and applicable to other projects as well.
Credit Interpretation Ruling (CIR)
32. 32
The following are the steps to be followed in case the project team
encounters any difficulty:
Refer the Abridged Reference Guide
Review the intent of the mandatory requirement / credit and self-
evaluate whether the project satisfies the intent.
Review the Credit Interpretation Ruling web page for previous CIRs
If a similar CIR has not been addressed or does not answer the
question sufficiently, submit a credit interpretation request.
*Only registered projects are eligible to post credit interpretation request.
**Two CIRs are answered without levying any fee, and for any CIR beyond the first
two CIRs, a fee is levied.
Credit Interpretation Ruling (CIR)
33. 33
In rare cases, mandatory requirements / credits get
denied due to misinterpretation of the intent.
On receipt of the final review and if the project team feels
that sufficient grounds exist to appeal a credit denied in
the final review, the project has an option to appeal to
IGBC for reassessment of denying mandatory
requirements / credits.
The documentation of the mandatory requirements /
credits seeking appeal may be resubmitted to IGBC along
with necessary fees.
IGBC will take 30 days to review such documentation.
If an appeal is pursued, please note that a different review
team will be assessing the appeal documentation.
