EPR Registration for Battery Waste Management

EPR Registration for Battery Waste Management

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) for Battery Waste Management is a mandatory compliance under the Battery Waste Management Rules, 2022, issued by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC), Government of India. The rule ensures that producers, importers, and recyclers take full responsibility for the collection, recycling, and environmentally sound disposal of waste batteries.

At SS Global, we provide end-to-end consultancy and registration support for EPR Authorization for Battery Waste Management, enabling businesses to meet all regulatory requirements smoothly and sustainably.

What is EPR for Battery Waste Management?

EPR is a policy approach where producers are legally responsible for the entire lifecycle of their products — including take-back, recycling, and final disposal. Under the Battery Waste Management Rules, every producer or importer of batteries must register with the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) and ensure that waste batteries are collected and recycled through authorized recyclers.

This system promotes the reuse, recycling, and recovery of valuable materials while preventing environmental pollution caused by improper disposal of batteries.

Who Needs EPR Registration for Battery Waste?

EPR Registration is mandatory for the following entities involved in the manufacturing, importing, or selling of batteries:

  • Battery Producers / Manufacturers
  • Battery Importers
  • Brand Owners (selling batteries under their brand name)
  • Battery Assemblers
  • Equipment Manufacturers / Importers (using batteries in their products, e.g., electronics, EVs, UPS systems, etc.)
