Frequently Asked Questions
Is EPR registration different for businesses in Bongaigaon District?
No -- EPR registration is centralised via CPCB, not district-level; a business in Bongaigaon District registers the same way as anywhere else in India, with the Pollution Control Board, Assam (PCBA) handling state-level monitoring for Assam.
Which rules cover EPR in India?
Extended Producer Responsibility is set out under the Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016 (as amended, including the 2022 EPR Guidelines for Plastic Packaging), the E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2022, and the Battery Waste Management Rules, 2022 -- each administered under the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986.
Where do I register for EPR?
Registration is done on CPCB's centralised EPR Portal, which has separate modules for plastic packaging, e-waste and battery waste. Producers, Importers and Brand Owners (PIBOs) create a profile, submit entity and product details, and receive an EPR Registration Certificate.
Does the State Pollution Control Board grant the EPR certificate?
For e-waste and battery waste, EPR authorisation is granted centrally by CPCB. For plastic packaging, CPCB generally registers producers/importers/brand-owners with multi-state operations, while the State Pollution Control Board registers those operating within a single state -- in both cases the State Board's core role is monitoring and compliance verification within the state.
What happens after EPR registration?
Registered entities must meet their annual EPR targets by engaging registered recyclers, refurbishers or Producer Responsibility Organisations (PROs), collect the corresponding EPR certificates, and file Annual Returns on the CPCB portal declaring quantities placed on the market against quantities processed.
What if a business doesn't register or misses its targets?
The Rules empower CPCB and the State Pollution Control Boards to take enforcement action, including environmental compensation, for non-registration or shortfall against EPR obligations. We help clients register correctly and stay current on filings to avoid this.
Can Leegal handle EPR registration and annual compliance together?
Yes -- we handle category classification, portal registration/authorisation, and ongoing annual return filing as a single engagement.
