Intermediate2h 52m # EPR Compliance Course India: E-Waste & Plastic India EPR compliance for producers and importers: E-Waste Rules 2022 and plastic packaging EPR, CPCB registration, recycling targets and EPR certificates. India's Extended Producer Responsibility framework is one of the most consequential regulatory obligations for any company that manufactures, imports, or sells electrical and electronic equipment or plastic-packaged goods in the Indian market. Two separate EPR regimes — the E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2022 and the Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016 as substantially amended in 2022 and again in 2026 — apply to overlapping sets of companies, through two separate CPCB portals, with distinct registration processes, recycling targets, certificate systems, and annual return obligations. Many electronics companies face both simultaneously and most underestimate the compliance load of running two parallel EPR programmes. This course is the complete practical guide to both India EPR schemes. Starting from first principles — what EPR is, why India adopted it, and which legislation governs each scheme — it walks you through every layer of both frameworks: how to determine whether your company and products are in scope, how the CPCB portal registration process works for e-waste and plastic packaging, how recycling targets are calculated and discharged through the EPR certificate system, how mandatory recycled content targets under the 2026 Plastic Waste Management Amendment operate, what annual returns require, and how to build a multi-year compliance programme that keeps both registrations current and audit-ready. The course covers the E-Waste Rules 2022 effective from 1 April 2023, the PWM Amendment Rules 2026 notified on 31 March 2026, the QR and barcode traceability requirements in force from July 2025, and the EPR certificate market dynamics for both schemes. Worked examples and end-to-end walkthroughs throughout.
