The following can apply for EPR battery waste certification:

1. Producers: Producers are organizations that produce, sell or distribute batteries and battery containing products.

2. Importer: The importers are liable for the disposal of battery waste, produced by imported items from other countries.

3. Assemblers: Assemblers, who import battery cells and assemble them into final products or devices.

4. Distributor/Dealer: The distributors / dealers of battery products should ensure that the batteries. they sold were covered under an EPR plan before selling.

5. Bulk Consumers: Large organizations, governmental agencies, and industrial businesses that use huge quantities of batteries fall in this category.

6. E-Waste Producers: For Battery-Containing Products - Those manufacturers who produce or sell the electronic products that contain batteries like mobile phones, laptops etc.

7. Authorized Representative: For foreign producers or importers, an Authorized Indian Representative can be designated to take care of EPR compliance and obtain authorization on behalf of a foreign entity.

1. Portable Batteries. like Alkaline Batteries, Lithium-ion batteries, Nickel-cadmium (NiCd) and nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) Consumer electronics- Mobile phones, Remote controls, Toys, Cameras etc.
2. Car Batteries Lead-acid batteries (used by cars) Lithium-ion power cells for electric vehicles, Nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries in hybrid vehicles, Batteries of Scooters, Motorcycle or any other two/three-wheeled motor vehicles.
3. Industrial Batteries like High-capacity lead-acid batteries for equipment, UPS systems, and backup, Lithium-ion battery as energy storage systems, and Batteries for use with big machinery, such as forklifts, cranes.
4. Electric Vehicle Batteries like Lithium-ion (primarily in electric cars, buses, two-wheelers, etc., Novelty technology for EVs: solid-state batteries, Nickel-cobalt-manganese (NCM) and lithium iron phosphate batteries used in electric vehicles
5. Button Cell Batteries: Small round batteries used for low-power devices, for example, Watches, Hearing aids, medical devices (such as pacemakers, glucose meters) Calculators, Toys and small gadgets.
6. Back-up and Energy Storage Batteries example- UPS batteries for computers, data centres, and other equipment, Storage batteries in the solar energy system, Batteries in telecommunication, medical, and emergency systems.
7. Battery-containing products: All products that contain either integrated or replaceable batteries fall under the EPR for battery waste.
8. Secondary or Rechargeable Batteries like Consumer electronics: Lithium-ion batteries in smartphones, laptops, etc, Nickel-metal hydride battery for home electrical devices, Lead-acid batteries for industry and automotive purposes.

Processing time for EPR: it takes a minimum of a few weeks to get extended producer responsibility battery waste EPR certificate, and actually it depends on the overall complexity of your business functioning, the completeness of papers submitted, and efficiency. Usually, the whole cycle for EPR Battery waste takes 6-8 weeks, depending on the document used, compliance documentation, the nature of the application.

The government fee for EPR registration may vary with the quantity of waste generated. The cost for acquiring EPR Authorization for Battery Waste depends on the scale of the business, type, and quantities of batteries involved as well as partnerships for collection, recycling, and disposal.
