As India tightens its environmental compliance norms, businesses dealing with batteries must prioritize EPR registration. This regulation mandates that companies not only track the end-of-life of their products but also put systems in place for proper recycling or disposal. From electric vehicle manufacturers to small-scale battery importers, EPR compliance is a legal necessity in today’s market.
The registration process is relatively straightforward but requires thorough documentation, including details of battery production/import, waste management plans, and tie-ups with authorized recyclers. By becoming EPR-compliant, companies not only enhance their environmental credentials but also build trust with eco-conscious consumers and stakeholders. It’s more than regulation—it’s a responsible business move.
However, many third-party service providers and compliance experts now offer assistance in creating EPR frameworks. Investing in such solutions helps companies avoid legal pitfalls and promote long-term environmental sustainability.
