  2. What is EPR Certification Process? The Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) certification process in India is a structured, mandatory procedure defined by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) to ensure proper waste management by producers, importers, and brand owners across various industries. This comprehensive compliance framework requires businesses to take responsibility for the entire lifecycle of their products, particularly the post-consumer waste phase. The process involves detailed documentation, mandatory registration with regulatory authorities, approval acquisition, and ongoing compliance monitoring to legally operate in India. Proper EPR certification demonstrates environmental commitment and ensures businesses meet their legal obligations under India's environmental regulations.

These organisations must obtain proper certification to operate legally.
