EPR Authorization & Certification in India

EPR stands for Extended Producer's Responsibility. For the management of e-waste, Indian manufacturers and importers of products must have an EPR Certificate. The Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), a division of the MoEFCC, Government of India, grants EPR authorization. The maker and importer of electronic and electrical devices have been given the authority by EPR India to manage E-waste produced by the products after the end of their useful lives.
