EPR compliance in India, explained for producers

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) makes brand owners, importers and producers accountable for what happens to their products at end of life. In India it now spans e-waste, plastic, batteries and tyres — each with its own targets, registration and reporting requirements.

What EPR asks of you

• Registration with the relevant regulatory framework for each material category.
• Meeting annual recovery and recycling targets tied to what you put on the market.
• Evidence that materials were channelled to authorised, verifiable recovery.
• Accurate, audit-ready reporting against those obligations.

Where compliance usually breaks

The hard part is rarely the intent — it's the evidence. Fragmented collection, unverifiable downstream channels and manual record-keeping make it difficult to prove obligations were genuinely met. The risk isn't only regulatory; it's reputational.

Compliance as an outcome of infrastructure

When recovery runs on connected, traceable infrastructure, compliance stops being a year-end scramble and becomes a by-product of how material actually moves. Verified channels, documented chain of custody and audit-grade records turn obligation into assurance — which is exactly how ReVivo approaches it.
