The Central Pollution Control Board of India introduces the ‘Extended Producers Responsibility’ (EPR) registration. Under EPR registration, automotive battery waste falls under the category of battery waste. To ensure that producers, manufacturers, and importers are responsible for waste generation throughout the shelf life, EPR takes configurative measures to curb battery waste.
We, the team of Professional Utilities, assist the clients in beginning the EPR Registration Process and ensure the required criteria for the process to provide them with compliance and a convenient EPR Registration certificate within the least amount of time.

An automotive battery is a rechargeable battery that is highly used as an automotive starter, lighting, or ignition power. After being fully utilized, it becomes a used battery, which is then recharged to be used again.
Once the battery is disposed of when it is no longer in use, it becomes a waste battery, which is disposed of under the Battery Waste Management Rules, 2023. EPR Registration for Battery Waste is required to ensure compliance with responsible disposal practices. EPR registration is to be done to dispose of the automotive battery waste, as per the Battery Waste Management Rules, 2022.
Here are the Benefits of EPR registration for automotive battery waste:
The business that has obtained an EPR registration certificate will opt for recycling options and refurbish the good-to-use equipment and materials used in the waste products rather than disposing of all of it in the waste process, which will result in a reduction of expenses at some level for materials.
The EPR Registration for Automotive Baon Waste ensures efficient management of the waste generated throughout the lifespan of the product. The producers, manufacturers, and importers are held accountable for the management of automotive battery waste as they are obliged to institute a waste collection system, work ade recycling amenities, and more, which would result in a decrease in the disposal of automotive battery waste in the environment.
As the advancement unit of battery waste, the automotive battery manufacturers in India possess an EPR registration certificate for automotive battery waste management. The recycling of the waste will result in a reduction of expenses faced by businesses during the process of Automotive Battery Waste Management.
Mentioned below is the step-by-step process to get the EPR Registration Certificate for the management of automotive battery waste.
An applicant will have to provide all the details and documents about the company and the automotive battery waste that is manufactured on their respective premises. We, the team members of Professional Utilities, will then review all the details and documents submitted by the applicants and give them feedback in case of any disparity.
After a thorough review and evaluation of the details and documents from our professionals and experts, we will proceed to file the CPCB EPR Registration for Automotive Battery Waste with the authorities of the Central Pollution Control Board.
The application, which is filled out by our experts, would then be assessed by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) authorities. The CPCB authorities provide all the requisite details; if there are any further mistakes or discrepancies found within the documents, our team will address them as per the requirements.
After filing the application, the CPCB authority shall issue the certificate on behalf of the applicant. After acquiring the certificate of authorization, automotive battery manufacturers, producers, and importers must execute an EPR plan and meet the required annual target.
A list of the necessary documents that automotive battery manufacturers, producers, and importers will be required to provide to proceed with the CPCB EPR registration is given below.
Any automotive battery manufacturer, producer, or importer that supplies automotive batteries on the market is required to obtain an EPR Registration Certificate for Automotive Battery Waste Management.
Tabulated below are the government fees that are charged during the EPR registration for Automotive Battery Waste Management.
| Annual Turnover | EPR Registration Fees |
|---|---|
| Less than 5 crore | Rs 10,000 |
| Between 5 and 50 Crores | Rs 20,000 |
| Above 50 Crores | Rs 30,000 |
Note : The EPR registration fee is exclusive of GST and may change according to the quality of the Automotive Battery Waste production.
Here are the penalties and the key challenges that, if found violating the rules of CPCB authority under the provisions of Section 15 of the Environment (Protection) Act.
The violating entity will be given an opportunity to speak about their actions after a violation notice has been issued against them for 15 days; after that, their EPR registration certificate for automotive battery waste will be deemed invalid.
Conclusion
For the efficient management of automotive battery waste, the EPR registration is mandatory for the recycling of the automotive waste. The EPR registration aids in the protection of the environment by promoting recycling and refurbishment of products. The entities that have acquired an EPR registration certificate of authorization for automotive battery waste also benefit from reduced expenses, sustainable automotive battery waste management, and a better brand image for marketing. The process to file for the EPR registration certificate of authorization and to implement the EPR plans for efficient automotive battery waste management is necessary for entities to know.
At Professional Utilities, we leverage our industry knowledge and expertise to help businesses navigate complex regulations, minimize risks, and optimize operations for maximum efficiency and profitability.

They've been very helpful in our registration with ICEGATE. It was a small thing with a small amount paid which somehow escalated to a very painful procedure. Never did they say "You've only paid so much. It's too much effort for us.".
Very pleased with their service. Prompt, professional and great communication. Definitely recommend. Special mention for Ms. Razia - she handled our case.
Professional Utilities is fully professional in their work, Rates are too low and genuine. Services and satisfaction are high so I highly recommended Professional Utilities.
They are one of the most genuine and reasonable people. I applied for lmpc certificate through them and they charged me a very nominal amount as compared to what other firms asked .
