OVERVIEW
What is E-Waste EPR Authorization?
E-Waste Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Authorization is a mandatory statutory approval mandated under the E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2022 (and subsequent amendments) issued by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC). It requires businesses introducing Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE) into the market to ensure environmentally sound management of post-consumer electronic waste.
Administered through the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) centralized online portal, E-Waste EPR forces Producers, Importers, Brand Owners (PIBOs), Refurbishers, and Recyclers to register before commercial operations or imports. Corporate Mart provides complete end-to-end consulting—covering EEE category classification, target assessment, RoHS testing facilitation, CPCB portal filing, e-waste credit procurement, and annual return filings.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Any commercial business operating as a Producer, Importer, or Brand Owner (PIBO) dealing in any of the 106+ regulated Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE) categories must obtain EPR registration on the CPCB central portal before manufacturing, importing, or selling in India.
Reduction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) requires every producer or importer to ensure that EEE items do not contain Lead, Mercury, Hexavalent Chromium, Polybrominated Biphenyls (PBB), Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers (PBDE) exceeding 0.1% by weight, and Cadmium exceeding 0.01% by weight. A RoHS self-declaration supported by NABL test reports is mandatory.
E-Waste targets are calculated based on the quantity of EEE placed in the market in previous years, adjusted for the average life of the specific equipment category as defined in CPCB guidelines. Importers compute targets based on customs bills of entry.
E-Waste Recycling Credits are digital certificates generated on the CPCB portal by registered electronic recyclers upon recycling post-consumer e-waste. Producers purchase these credits on the portal to fulfill their statutory annual recycling obligations.
Failure to register or fulfill recycling targets results in Environmental Compensation (EC) levies imposed by CPCB under "Polluter Pays" principles. Payment of compensation does not absolve the producer from fulfilling the unfulfilled target in subsequent years.
E-Waste EPR Registration Certificates issued by CPCB are generally valid for a period of 5 years, subject to continuous compliance, including the filing of annual returns and credit offsetting on the CPCB portal.
Foreign manufacturers cannot register directly on the CPCB portal. They must apply through an authorized Indian subsidiary, an appointed Indian importer, or an Authorized Representative (AR) residing in India holding a valid GSTIN and PAN.
