Credible, assurance-grade EPR compliance across all six waste streams — from obligation mapping through independent verification. Not a broker. Not a certificate marketplace.
CPCB now runs invoice-level digital verification, category-wise declarations, and factory inspections. Aggregate tonnage is no longer accepted. Since July 2025, CBIC blocks consignments at customs for importers without valid EPR plastic registration.
From 1 July 2025, PIBOs must provide plastic packaging information via on-pack barcode, QR code, or unique number under Rule 11. The Environment Audit Rules 2025 created the Registered Environment Auditor role for third-party EPR verification.
Unfulfilled EPR targets carry forward up to three financial years, with Environmental Compensation progressively forfeited. Under EPA 1986, non-compliance can result in imprisonment up to 5 years and/or daily fines.
Half-yearly returns due by 31 October. Annual returns due by 30 June. Filed on the CPCB portal, aligned with GST-linked submissions. The annual cadence creates recurring compliance demand.
End-to-end EPR advisory and assurance across every regulated waste category.
PIBOs across rigid, flexible, multi-layered, and compostable plastic. Category I–IV classification. Rigid packaging must contain 40% recycled content for FY 2026-27. Recycle/reuse obligation at 70%, rising to 100% by 2028-29.
Active21 categories including IT equipment, consumer electronics, lighting, medical devices. Established-producer collection and recycling targets enforced via the CPCB portal.
ActivePortable, automotive, industrial, and EV batteries. Collection, recycling, and material-recovery targets across lead-acid, Li-ion, and Ni-MH chemistries.
ActiveNew and retreaded tyre producers. End-of-life collection, material recovery, and pyrolysis obligations under the Tyre Waste Management Rules.
ActiveLubricant manufacturers and importers. Collection, re-refining, and disposal obligations with chain-of-custody requirements.
ActiveThe Environment Protection (EPR for Packaging) Rules from 1 April 2026 expand scope to paper, glass, metal, and sanitary product packaging. Separate from the non-ferrous metal scrap rules.
New from Apr 2026EPR advisory and EPR assurance are structurally firewalled. This is a credibility asset, not a limitation.
We help you navigate the EPR regime, meet your obligations, and stay ahead of the regulatory curve.
Independent verification of claims, leveraging RSustain’s AA1000 assurance methodology and environmental engineering expertise.
Independence firewall: We either help you prepare, or we independently assure — never both on the same data. Advisory clients and assurance clients are kept structurally distinct. This is how credibility works.
BRSR Section E now requires EPR registration status and target-versus-actual compliance disclosure. EPR is no longer just a compliance-filing problem — it is an assured ESG-disclosure problem.
Map your EPR obligations, targets, and actuals directly into BRSR disclosure format. Waste-stream-by-waste-stream, audit-ready.
Every data point moves through: self-reported → assurance-ready → assured. No ambiguity about what’s verified and what isn’t.
One engagement connects EPR compliance, BRSR disclosure, and independent AA1000/ISAE 3000 assurance. No gaps, no duplication.
BRSR Core Sprint →The market is crowded with registration brokers. We are not one of them.
Advisory and assurance are structurally separated. Your data is never both prepared and independently verified by the same team.
Every engagement follows the three-state evidence model. Self-reported → assurance-ready → assured. No shortcuts.
We track every CPCB notification, amendment, and enforcement action. Your compliance programme reflects the regime as it is today.
No one else connects EPR compliance to BRSR Section E disclosure to independent assurance in a single, coherent programme.
Obligation mapping across all applicable waste streams. Category classification, target calculation, gap analysis against current compliance status.
Multi-stream compliance strategy. Certificate-procurement roadmap, recycler due diligence, timeline to meet half-yearly and annual filing requirements.
Registration execution, return filing, certificate management, target tracking, portal management, and ongoing CPCB correspondence.
Independent verification (Track B), BRSR Section E integration, management letter, annual improvement cycle, regulatory change monitoring.
Free obligation estimator across plastic, e-waste, battery, and tyre waste streams.
