Battery EPR in India was introduced to address the rapidly growing environmental and health risks caused by improper disposal of batteries. With the increasing use of electric vehicles, consumer electronics, renewable energy storage systems, and industrial batteries, India needed a structured framework to ensure safe collection, recycling, and resource recovery.
This led to the introduction of the Battery Waste Management Rules, 2022, replacing earlier, fragmented regulations. These rules formally established Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) for batteries, making producers responsible for the entire life cycle of batteries—from introduction into the market to end-of-life recycling.
Since their introduction, the rules have been periodically refined to:
Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB)
CPCB acts as the central implementing and monitoring body, responsible for:
State Pollution Control Boards (SPCBs)
SPCBs operate at the state level, ensuring:
Entities Covered
Who Must Fulfil EPR Obligations?
Any producer placing batteries in the market must:
Step-by-Step Battery EPR Compliance with Kar Parivartan
Step 1: Applicability Assessment
We evaluate your business model, battery types, and quantities to determine exact EPR obligations.
Step 2: CPCB Registration & Documentation
Complete support for:
Step 3: EPR Target Planning
We calculate your annual EPR targets and design a cost-effective fulfilment strategy.
Step 4: Recycler & EPR Credit Alignment
We connect you with authorized CPCB-registered recyclers and manage:
Step 5: Portal Compliance & Reporting
Our team handles:
Step 6: Ongoing Compliance & Advisory
Continuous monitoring of:
With Kar Parivartan, EPR becomes predictable, transparent, and stress-free.

An end-to-end EPR compliance framework that manages everything—from strategy and sourcing to submissions and regulatory support—ensuring traceable, ethical, and penalty-free compliance.
Clear EPR obligation mapping with upfront cost visibility, timelines, and execution strategy—before compliance begins.
A structured, end-to-end approach that ensures EPR compliance—from
sourcing waste to verified credit fulfilment and payments.
Yes. Battery EPR is mandatory under the Battery Waste Management Rules, 2022.
