E-Waste EPR — Authorization for Electronic Products
Extended Producer Responsibility authorization for e-waste producers — application filing, documentation, CPCB coordination and follow-up to grant.
What is EPR for e-waste
EPR stands for Extended Producer Responsibility — a policy approach that makes manufacturers responsible for the entire lifecycle of their products, including proper disposal or recycling at the end of their useful life. EPR programs for e-waste address a growing environmental concern: manufacturers of electronic products take responsibility for the collection, recycling and disposal of their products, including collection and recycling programs, easier-to-recycle product design, and consumer education on proper disposal.
Who needs e-waste EPR authorization
- Producers from the electronic sectors — an EPR certificate is a mandatory authorization for electronic-sector producers
- Manufacturers whose electronic products reach end of life and need collection, recycling and disposal coverage
Exact covered product categories depend on current E-Waste Management Rules schedules — we confirm applicability for your products before filing.
Benefits of an EPR certificate
- Less dependence on burying or burning waste, which releases toxic gases such as sulfur oxide, formaldehyde, dioxins and furans
- Easier, faster disassembly of products for recycling and reuse
- Conservation of natural resources, less waste, less pollution — supporting sustainable development

Who needs e-waste EPR authorization?
An EPR certificate — full form Extended Producer Responsibility / EPR Authorization certificate — is a mandatory authorization for producers from the electronic sectors, covering collection, recycling and responsible disposal across the product lifecycle.
What are the benefits of an EPR certificate?
An EPR certificate reduces dependence on waste disposal methods such as burying or burning, which produce toxic gases including sulfur oxide, formaldehyde, dioxins and furans. It makes disassembly for recycling and reuse easier, conserves natural resources, reduces waste and pollution, and supports sustainable development.
