A Brief on the E-waste Management Rules for Manufacturers
The Indian Ministry of Environment & Forest (MoEF) has introduced e-waste management rules
for the safe disposal and handling of e-waste (Waste electric and electronic equipments) in
order to reduce and recycle e-waste in the country.
The E-Waste Management and Handling
Rules, 2011 which came into effect on May 1, 2012 are applicable to both manufacturers of
electrical goods and consumers of electronic equipment who will now need to maintain records
of e-waste in a particular format.
Similar rules had been introduced in the UK with the adoption of the EU WEEE Directive in
2003.
With the new rule, companies now have to pay for the ‘recycled’ disposal of all their
waste IT products.
Companies in India (as consumers of electronic equipments) are required to ensure:
● The E-waste (Waste electric/ electronic equipments) generated in house are to be
directed to the authorized collection centers, registered dismantlers or recyclers
