E-Waste Management Rules 2022: Updated Product List

In a recent update to the E-Waste Management Rules of 2022, a revised product list has been introduced for Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Authorization. These new rules are applicable to manufacturers, producers, refurbishers, dismantlers, and recyclers engaged in various activities related to electrical and electronic equipment, as outlined in Schedule I. The updated product category list under EPR Authorization encompasses a wide range of electronic products, including their components, consumables, parts, and spares that contribute to the operational functionality of these products. This regulatory adjustment reflects a comprehensive approach to managing electronic waste and emphasizes the collective responsibility of stakeholders involved in the life cycle of electrical and electronic equipment.
