Sadly, only a fraction (543,100 tonnes) of this waste is recycled, showing a significant gap between the amount of e-waste generated and the amount that is recycled, leading to massive environmental and health risks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To tackle the issue, the Indian government introduced updated waste management rules in 2022, imposing year-on-year collection targets for producers under the EPR (Extended Producers Responsibility) policy in India. Under the EPR policy in India, manufacturers of products like batteries, electronics, electrical components, plastics, and solar panels are required to take financial and\/or physical responsibility for managing the disposal of their products after the end of their lives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The producers are responsible for registering on the Indian CPCB\u2019s (Central Pollution Control Board) portal and submitting a waste management plan. Producers must set up collection and recycling systems for their products and ensure that they recycle a certain percentage of their products each year. They must also provide financial guarantees to cover the costs of managing the waste generated by their products.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The updated rules are a significant step towards promoting sustainable waste management practices in India. They provide a structured framework for producers to manage their products&#8217; end-of-life disposal, encourage the development of more sustainable products, and improve the waste management infrastructure in the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exigo, a leading waste management and recycling company is playing a crucial role in supporting Indian producers to comply with the EPR mandates.
