EPR registration is a process of obtaining the approval of the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) or the State Pollution Control Boards (SPCBs) for the implementation of the extended producer responsibility (EPR) obligations under the E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2016 or the Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016. EPR is a policy approach that makes the producers, importers and brand owners (PIBOs) responsible for the collection and management of the waste generated from their products, such as electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) or plastic packaging.
