What is EPR?

EPR stands for Extended Producer Responsibility.

In simple words:

EPR means the producer, importer, brand owner, or responsible business must take responsibility for the collection, recycling, processing, or environmentally sound management of waste generated from their products or packaging.

EPR helps ensure that products and packaging do not become unmanaged waste after use. It supports recycling, circular economy, resource recovery, traceability, and environmental protection.

EPR may apply to businesses involved in:

• Plastic packaging
• Electrical and electronic equipment
• Batteries
• Tyres
• Used oil
• Packaging-heavy products
• Imported products
• Branded consumer goods
• Industrial products
• Retail and e-commerce supply chains
• Recycling and waste processing activities

Why EPR Registration Matters

EPR registration is not just paperwork. It is an important legal and environmental compliance requirement for businesses operating in India.

A proper EPR compliance system helps your business:

• Meet CPCB / SPCB / PCC regulatory expectations
• Avoid environmental compensation and penalties
• Continue manufacturing, importing, selling, or distributing regulated products
• Build trust with customers, buyers, marketplaces, distributors, and regulators
• Maintain proper waste traceability
• Fulfil recycling or collection obligations
• File timely returns and compliance reports
• Improve ESG and sustainability performance
• Support circular economy goals
• Reduce risk of notices, delays, or business disruption

CPCB’s EPR portals are designed to improve accountability, traceability, and transparency in fulfilment of EPR obligations, especially for waste streams such as batteries.
