Under EPR regulations, manufacturers and importers are responsible for the entire lifecycle of their products, including collection, recycling, and safe disposal.
In India, EPR for e-waste is governed by the E-Waste Management Rules, which mandate that producers must establish collection systems and ensure environmentally sound management of electronic waste generated from their products.
