If your business deals with plastic packaging, electronics, batteries, or imported products in Bangalore, you must follow EPR rules to continue operating legally. Many companies get their EPR certificate but forget that it must be renewed every year. Missing renewal can lead to penalties, account suspension on government portals, and even business stoppage.
This guide explains EPR Renewal in Bangalore (2026) in simple language—what it is, why it is important, required documents, step-by-step process, advantages, and how PSR Compliance can help you.
EPR full form is Extended Producer Responsibility.
It is a legal responsibility under Indian environmental laws that makes producers, importers, and brand owners responsible for the collection, recycling, and proper disposal of waste generated from their products.
If your business is involved in:

▪ Online marketplaces may stop listing your products▪ Heavy penalties can be imposed▪ Business operations can be legally restricted
Depending on your business category, your renewal may apply to:

You must renew EPR if you are:
➤ A manufacturer
➤ An importer
➤ A brand owner
➤ An e-commerce seller
A business using plastic packaging, electronics, or batteries
If you operate in Bangalore, renewal is compulsory under 2026 environmental guidelines.
To renew your EPR certificate in Bangalore, you generally need:
→ Existing EPR Certificate
→ Company Incorporation Certificate / GST
→ PAN of the company
→ Product and packaging details
→ Waste generation data for the previous year
→ Recycling or waste management agreements
→ Annual return reports
→ Authorized signatory details
Here is the simplified process:
Your existing EPR data, waste reports, and recycling records are checked for errors or missing details.
We prepare:
Application is filed on the official CPCB/SPCB portal using your registered account.
The pollution control board reviews the application and may raise queries.
Once approved, your renewed EPR certificate is issued and remains valid for the next period.
❌ Missing renewal deadlines❌ Uploading incorrect waste data❌ Not maintaining recycler agreements❌ Confusing plastic, battery, and e-waste categories❌ Assuming registration is “one-time”
These mistakes can lead to rejection or legal action.
At PSR Compliance, we handle your EPR from start to finish:
🗸 Category identification (EPR plastic, EPR battery, EPR e-waste) 🗸 Data review and compliance correction 🗸 Portal filing and follow-ups 🗸 Query handling with authorities 🗸 On-time certificate delivery🗸 Ongoing compliance support
Producers, importers, brand owners, recyclers, and refurbishers dealing with e-waste, plastic, batteries, or tyres must renew their EPR authorization to remain legally compliant.
EPR renewal should be applied for 60 to 90 days before the authorization expiry date to prevent operational or regulatory disruptions.
EPR certificate validity varies by waste type: e-waste (5 years), plastic packaging (1 year), and batteries & tyres (5 years).
EPR renewal applications are submitted online through the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) EPR portal for the relevant waste category.
EPR renewal requires the existing certificate, updated sales or import data, recycler agreements, proof of target fulfilment, return filings, and valid CTO where applicable.
The EPR renewal fee is generally the same as the initial registration fee, plus an annual processing fee of approximately 25%.
Authorities verify past EPR target compliance, recycler agreements, return filings, and adherence to current waste management rules.
