From a mandated obligation to a clean compliance record
For Indian producers, importers and brand owners across plastic packaging, electronics, batteries, tyres, oil and vehicles.
Extended Producer Responsibility in India is a statutory obligation. A business that places plastic packaging, electrical and electronic equipment or batteries on the Indian market carries responsibility for the waste those products become. The Central Pollution Control Board now operates six EPR portals, covering plastic packaging, e-waste, batteries, waste tyres, used oil and end-of-life vehicles, each with centralised registration and EPR certificate trading, and each administered through its own rules under the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986.
Plastic packaging EPR runs under the Guidelines notified as Schedule II of the Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016 as amended, under which Producers, Importers and Brand Owners register on the CPCB Centralized EPR Portal for Plastic Packaging. E-waste runs under the E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2022, effective since 1 April 2023, covering 106 items of equipment in Schedule I. Batteries run under the Battery Waste Management Rules, 2022, covering portable, automotive, industrial and electric-vehicle batteries of every chemistry. EPR Solutions by GreenSutra carry each regime end to end.
The obligation is concrete. A registered entity must meet stream-wise and year-wise targets, discharge them by sourcing EPR certificates generated by registered recyclers, apply the plastic packaging labelling rule in force since 1 July 2025, and file quarterly and annual returns on the portal. The targets differ by stream and by category, so a blended figure never tells the truth, and getting each one right is the work.
Based in Mumbai and delivering across India, GreenSutra registers producers, importers and brand owners on the CPCB portals, computes the obligation for each category, sources the certificates that discharge it and files the returns, alongside the waste management services that move the material itself. The same discipline runs across all six streams: waste tyre and used oil EPR under amendments to the Hazardous and Other Wastes Rules, and end-of-life vehicle EPR under the Environment Protection (End-of-Life Vehicles) Rules, 2025, carry the identical register, certify and report mechanic on their own portals.
02
Waste streams covered by EPR
All six CPCB regimes, with the products each covers and how the obligation is measured.
Each of the six regimes carries its own rules, its own CPCB portal and its own way of measuring the obligation, and plastic runs two distinct tracks at once: a recycling target on the output side and, under the 2026 amendment, a minimum recycled-content mandate on the input side. A business places one or more of these streams on the market and registers stream-wise for each. The categories below act as the guide rather than every covered product.
Electrical and electronic equipment
The 106 items of electrical and electronic equipment in Schedule I under seven categories, including solar photo-voltaic modules, which carry a storage obligation rather than a recycling target.
Waste batteries
Portable, automotive, industrial and electric-vehicle batteries of every chemistry, shape and use placed on the Indian market.
Waste tyres
New tyres placed on the Indian market by manufacturers and importers, with EPR certificates generated by registered recyclers and retreaders against the recycling achieved.
Used oil
Base oil and lubricating oil placed on the market by producers, and used oil brought in by importers, recycled through registered recyclers, co-processors and collection agents.
End-of-life vehicles
Vehicles placed on the Indian market by producers and importers, scrapped through Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facilities that generate the EPR certificates discharging the obligation.
A precise check of which streams a business places on the market, and in what role, is the first step of every EPR compliance review.
03
How an EPR engagement runs
From stream scoping and portal registration to computed targets, sourced certificates and a filed return.
01
Scope the streams and the role
The covered streams and the role in each confirmed, with company documents and prior-year placement quantities gathered across plastic packaging, e-waste, batteries, tyres, oil and vehicles.
02
Register on the CPCB portals
Registration completed stream-wise on the relevant centralised portal, from the plastic packaging portal for PIBOs and the e-waste portal for Schedule I equipment to the battery portal in Form 1(A), the waste-tyre and used-oil portals, and the ELV portal for vehicle producers.
03
Compute the stream-wise targets
The year-wise and category-wise obligation calculated for each stream, from the four plastic categories and their recycled-content track to the e-waste recycling target and the battery collection and recovery figures, so every number is the right one for the stream and the year.
04
Channelise and source certificates
Post-consumer waste channelised through registered recyclers and producer responsibility organisations, and EPR certificates sourced and transferred on the portal to discharge each stream-wise target.
05
Label, file and keep the record
The plastic packaging labelling rule applied through a barcode, QR code or unique number, the quarterly and annual returns filed on the CPCB portal, and the records retained so a CPCB or state board audit meets evidence rather than gaps.
04
How extended producer responsibility flows from producer to recycler
An obligated producer registers stream-wise on the CPCB portal, collected waste is channelised, and EPR certificates close the annual return.
01Obligated entity
A producer, importer or brand owner that places plastic packaging, electrical and electronic equipment or batteries on the Indian market carries the EPR obligation for that stream.
02CPCB registration
The entity registers stream-wise on the relevant centralised CPCB portal, one registration per applicable stream, and no entity may operate without registration or deal with an unregistered one.
03Collection and channelisation
Post-consumer plastic packaging, e-waste and batteries are collected and channelised through registered recyclers and producer responsibility organisations.
04EPR certificates
Registered recyclers generate tradable EPR certificates on the portal against the recycling achieved, which the obligated entity buys to discharge its target.
05Annual returns
Quarterly and annual returns are filed on the CPCB portal and records retained, with environmental compensation due where the obligation goes unmet.
An obligated producer, importer or brand owner registers stream-wise on the CPCB portal for plastic packaging, e-waste and batteries, channelises post-consumer waste through registered recyclers, and discharges its target by buying the EPR certificates those recyclers generate against the recycling achieved. Quarterly and annual returns are filed on the portal. Non-compliance attracts environmental compensation, payment of which does not absolve the EPR obligation.
05
EPR obligation self-check
Two answers map a business onto the CPCB EPR portals.
Two questions place a business against the Indian EPR rules: the waste streams it puts on the market and the role it plays in them. The result states which CPCB registrations apply and what to confirm next.
Two questions decide EPR exposure: which covered streams the business places on the Indian market, from plastic packaging, electrical and electronic equipment and batteries to tyres, used oil and vehicles, and the role it plays in them. An EPR compliance review works through both with the figures on the table.

The business sits outside the EPR regimes today
None of the covered streams are placed on the Indian market, so the six CPCB Extended Producer Responsibility portals, covering plastic packaging, e-waste, batteries, waste tyres, used oil and end-of-life vehicles, place no obligation on the business today. The product mix is the point to watch, since placing any covered stream on the market brings the obligation into force.
Plastic packaging EPR applies
Plastic packaging is placed on the Indian market, so the business is a Producer, Importer or Brand Owner that must register on the CPCB Centralized EPR Portal for Plastic Packaging. The obligation is computed by category, from rigid Category I to compostable Category IV, and is discharged by sourcing EPR certificates from registered recyclers. Recycled-content obligations under the 2026 amendment and the barcode, QR code, brochure or unique-number labelling in force since 1 July 2025 apply on top of the recycling target.
E-waste EPR applies
Electrical and electronic equipment is placed on the Indian market, so the business must register on the CPCB e-waste EPR portal as a Manufacturer, Producer, Refurbisher or Recycler of the 106 Schedule I items. The producer recycling target rises from 60 percent of waste generation to 70 percent and then 80 percent across the financial years. Solar photo-voltaic modules carry a storage obligation until FY 2034-35 rather than a recycling target, and the obligation is discharged through EPR certificates generated by registered recyclers.
Battery EPR applies
Batteries are placed on the Indian market, so the business is a Producer under the Battery Waste Management Rules 2022 and must obtain CPCB EPR Registration in Form 1(A), valid for five years. The obligation covers a phased collection target and minimum material recovery, which reaches 90 percent of dry weight for portable and electric-vehicle batteries and caps at 60 percent for automotive and industrial batteries, and is discharged through EPR certificates generated by registered recyclers or refurbishers.
More than one EPR registration applies
The business places more than one covered stream on the Indian market, so it registers separately on each relevant CPCB portal, one registration per applicable stream across the six portals for plastic packaging, e-waste, batteries, waste tyres, used oil and end-of-life vehicles. Each regime carries its own targets: category-wise recycling and recycled-content for plastic, the rising 60 to 80 percent recycling target for e-waste, and collection plus material recovery for batteries. Every stream is discharged through EPR certificates from registered recyclers and reported through its own returns.
Waste tyre EPR applies
New tyres are placed on the Indian market, so the business registers on the CPCB waste-tyre EPR portal under the 2022 amendment to the Hazardous and Other Wastes Rules, in force since July 2022. Registered recyclers and retreaders generate the EPR certificates against the recycling achieved, the obligated producer or importer sources those certificates to discharge the year-wise obligation, and the annual return closes the year on the portal. Non-compliance attracts environmental compensation.
Used oil EPR applies
Base oil or lubricating oil is placed on the Indian market, or used oil is imported, so the business registers on the CPCB used-oil EPR portal under the 2023 second amendment to the Hazardous and Other Wastes Rules, operational since 1 April 2024. The recycling obligation is discharged by purchasing EPR certificates from registered recyclers, with collection agents and co-processors registered on the same portal, and the annual return filed there. Non-compliance attracts environmental compensation.
End-of-life vehicle EPR applies
Vehicles are placed on the Indian market, so the business registers on the centralised CPCB ELV portal under the Environment Protection (End-of-Life Vehicles) Rules 2025, applicable since 1 April 2025. The producer declares the EPR obligation and files the annual return on the portal, and the obligation is discharged through EPR certificates generated by Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facilities against the vehicles scrapped.
Recycler or refurbisher registration applies
A recycler, refurbisher, retreader or vehicle scrapping facility registers in that capacity on the relevant CPCB portal and is the entity that generates the tradable EPR certificates that producers, importers and brand owners buy to meet their obligations. Registration is mandatory before any recycling or certificate generation, and no registered entity may deal with an unregistered one. The certificates are generated against the recycling, refurbishment or scrapping achieved and transferred on the portal.
The position is worth a short review
The streams placed on the market or the role across them is still being mapped, so the exact CPCB registrations cannot be fixed from the answers alone. Each of the three regimes applies to every covered producer, importer or brand owner regardless of size, with no turnover or tonnage threshold. Confirming which streams the business places on the market, and in what role, is the first step of an EPR compliance review.
A manufacturer or brand owner registers as a Producer or Brand Owner and carries the stream-wise targets directly.
An importer registers on the same portal; for plastic, the importer definition has covered importers of plastic raw material such as resin and pellets since 14 March 2024.
A recycler or refurbisher registers in that capacity and is the entity that generates the EPR certificates producers buy.
Confirming the role across each stream is part of the EPR compliance review.

The obligation runs from the producer through the CPCB portal to the recycler and back as certificates, and a compliance review turns that path into a registered, target-met, filed position.

08
Six portals, one discipline
Every regime runs the same register, certify and report mechanic; the targets differ by stream, category and year.
All six CPCB EPR portals share one mechanic: registration before placing on the market, EPR certificates sourced against the achieved recycling, returns filed on the portal and environmental compensation for shortfalls. What differs is how each obligation is measured, and that measurement is where compliance is won or lost.
The measured regimes carry the tables on this page. Plastic packaging runs two tracks at once: the category-wise recycling target on the output side, and the minimum recycled-content mandate on the input side under the 2026 amendment. E-waste runs a rising recycling target against waste generation, and batteries pair a collection target with minimum material recovery by battery type.
The three newer portals anchor on their statutes: waste tyres under the Hazardous and Other Wastes Amendment Rules 2022, with certificates generated by registered recyclers and retreaders; used oil under the 2023 second amendment, operational since 1 April 2024; and end-of-life vehicles under the EP (ELV) Rules 2025, applicable since 1 April 2025, with certificates generated by Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facilities. Year-wise obligation percentages for these regimes are confirmed against the portal and the current notification during the compliance review rather than quoted from a page.
On the horizon
Draft rules proposing EPR for packaging made from paper, glass and metal as well as sanitary products were published for comment on 6 December 2024 and remain draft. No obligation arises from a draft, and the position is worth watching rather than acting on.

EPR questions, answered
Q·01What are EPR solutions?
EPR solutions carry a business through Extended Producer Responsibility under the Indian rules for plastic packaging, e-waste, batteries, waste tyres, used oil and end-of-life vehicles. The work covers scoping the covered streams and role, registration on the relevant CPCB centralised portal, computation of the year-wise and category-wise targets, sourcing EPR certificates from registered recyclers, the plastic packaging labelling requirement and the quarterly and annual returns. The defining idea is to turn a mandated obligation into a clean, evidenced compliance record across all six regimes.
Q·02Which businesses need EPR registration in India?
Any producer, importer or brand owner that places plastic packaging on the Indian market, any manufacturer, producer, refurbisher or recycler of the 106 electrical and electronic equipment items in Schedule I of the E-Waste Rules 2022, and any producer of batteries of any type must register. So must tyre manufacturers and importers, producers of base and lubricating oil, and vehicle producers and importers under their respective portals. Registration is on the relevant CPCB centralised EPR portal, one per applicable stream, and each regime applies to every covered business regardless of its size, with no turnover or tonnage threshold.
Q·03How is EPR registration obtained in India?
EPR registration is obtained online on the relevant CPCB centralised portal: the plastic packaging portal for producers, importers and brand owners, the e-waste portal for the Schedule I equipment, and the battery portal in Form 1(A), where the registration stays valid for five years. The application carries the company documents and the stream details, and a business placing more than one covered stream on the market completes one registration per applicable stream. A consultant prepares the dossier, files the application and carries it through to grant.
Q·04How many EPR regimes does India have?
The Central Pollution Control Board operates six EPR portals. The three core regimes run each under the Environment (Protection) Act 1986: plastic packaging under the Guidelines in Schedule II of the Plastic Waste Management Rules 2016 as amended, e-waste under the E-Waste (Management) Rules 2022, and batteries under the Battery Waste Management Rules 2022. Three further portals cover waste tyres and used oil, under amendments to the Hazardous and Other Wastes Rules, and end-of-life vehicles under the Environment Protection (End-of-Life Vehicles) Rules 2025.
Q·05Is there EPR for waste tyres and used oil in India?
Yes, and each has its own CPCB portal. Waste tyre EPR has been in force since July 2022 under an amendment to the Hazardous and Other Wastes Rules: tyre producers and importers register, and registered recyclers and retreaders generate the EPR certificates that discharge the obligation. Used oil EPR has been operational since 1 April 2024 under the 2023 second amendment: producers of base oil and lubricating oil and importers of used oil meet recycling obligations by purchasing certificates from registered recyclers, with collection agents and co-processors registered on the same portal. Annual returns close each year on the respective portal.
Q·06Do vehicle manufacturers have EPR obligations in India?
Yes. The Environment Protection (End-of-Life Vehicles) Rules 2025, applicable since 1 April 2025, place Extended Producer Responsibility on vehicle producers and importers. They register on the centralised CPCB ELV portal, declare the EPR obligation and file the annual return, and the obligation is discharged through EPR certificates generated by Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facilities against the vehicles scrapped. The regime makes scrapping infrastructure part of EPR in the same way recyclers anchor the other five portals.
Q·07Do importers also have EPR obligations?
Yes. For plastic, the Plastic Waste Management (Amendment) Rules 2024, in force since 14 March 2024, expanded the definition of importer to include importers of plastic raw material such as resin, pellets or intermediate material, who must register and report on the CPCB portal. Importers of batteries, and of equipment containing batteries, are Producers under the Battery Waste Management Rules 2022, and importers of electrical and electronic equipment register under the E-Waste Rules 2022.
Q·08What are the e-waste recycling targets?
Producers must meet a recycling target measured as a percentage of waste generation: 60 percent for FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25, 70 percent for FY 2025-26 and FY 2026-27, and 80 percent from FY 2027-28 onwards. These obligations have been effective since 1 April 2023. The obligation is discharged by purchasing EPR certificates generated by registered recyclers in terms of four end-products of recycling: gold, copper, aluminium and iron.
Q·09How are plastic packaging EPR targets structured?
Plastic packaging is classified into four categories, and the recycling target runs by category as a percentage of the EPR obligation. Category I rigid packaging follows 50, 60, 70 and 80 percent across FY 2024-25 to 2027-28 onwards, Categories II and III flexible and multi-layered follow 30, 40, 50 and 60 percent, and Category IV compostable follows 50, 60, 70 and 80 percent. A single blended figure across categories would be wrong, since each category and year differs.
Q·10Is there a recycled-content obligation for plastic packaging?
Yes. The Plastic Waste Management (Amendment) Rules 2026, notified vide G.S.R. 237(E) dated 31 March 2026, mandate minimum recycled plastic content of Category I 30, 40, 50 and 60 percent across FY 2025-26 to 2028-29 onwards, Category II 10, 10, 20 and 20 percent and Category III 5, 5, 10 and 10 percent, plus reuse obligations for rigid Category I packaging. Recycled content is a separate obligation track from the recycling target, and both apply together.
Q·11How much material must battery recyclers recover?
Minimum material recovery, measured as a percentage of the battery dry weight, is 70 percent in FY 2024-25, 80 percent in FY 2025-26 and 90 percent from FY 2026-27 onwards for portable and electric-vehicle batteries, and 55, 60 and 60 percent over the same years for automotive and industrial batteries. Producers also meet a phased collection target and discharge the obligation through EPR certificates generated by registered recyclers or refurbishers.
Q·12Is the plastic packaging labelling rule mandatory?
Yes. Since 1 July 2025, under the Plastic Waste Management (Amendment) Rules 2025 notified vide G.S.R. 73(E) dated 23 January 2025, producers, importers and brand owners must provide product information on plastic packaging through a barcode or QR code, a product information brochure, or a unique number, and report these details to the CPCB. The requirement applies alongside the recycling and recycled-content obligations.
Q·13How do EPR certificates work?
EPR certificates are the discharge instrument across the CPCB portals. A registered recycler, refurbisher or, for vehicles, a Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facility processes the collected waste and generates certificates on the portal against the quantity achieved. The obligated producer, importer or brand owner then sources those certificates on the same portal and offsets them against its year-wise target, and the transfer is recorded in the returns. The certificates exist only on the CPCB portals, so an obligation is met through registered channels or not at all, which is why recycler relationships matter as much as the registration itself.
Q·14What happens if EPR targets are not met?
Non-compliance with any provision of the e-waste, battery or plastic EPR rules attracts Environmental Compensation imposed and collected by the CPCB. Payment of environmental compensation does not absolve a producer of its EPR obligation, and the CPCB may suspend or cancel registration for non-compliance. The exact amounts are set by CPCB guidelines that change, so the obligation is best met rather than paid against.
Q·15Does meeting India EPR also cover EU export obligations?
No. The Indian CPCB EPR regime is separate from the European Union rules on packaging, batteries and waste electrical and electronic equipment. A business that exports to the European Union must comply with the relevant EU regime in addition to Indian EPR, since meeting one does not satisfy the other. Businesses serving both markets need dual compliance, planned together so neither obligation is missed.
