C&D waste, from site to reused material
The scope you register and report against as a Local Authority / ULB.
What a Local Authority / ULB must do — and how we handle it
Four responsibilities sit with you under the Environment (Construction & Demolition) Waste Management Rules, 2025 (superseding the C&D Waste Management Rules, 2016). We can carry all four.
As a Local Authority / ULB, you register on the official C&D Waste EPR portal and declare the correct role and category.
We confirm your obligation and complete the registration for you — correct role, correct category.
The 2025 rules set EPR recycling targets (Schedule I) and minimum waste-utilisation targets for building (Schedule II) and road (Schedule III) construction, phasing up to 2030-31. Producers must deposit 100% of their C&D waste to a processing facility. Exact year-by-year recycling percentages should be confirmed against the final notified gazette.
We meet your annual targets through verified channels and the EPR-certificate / credit system.
File accurate C&D Waste EPR returns on the portal every cycle, backed by clean records.
We prepare and submit every return accurately and on time.
Environmental Compensation is levied on entities violating the rules — including unregistered producers/recyclers and those missing EPR or waste-utilisation targets. Payment does not cancel the obligation, with graded refunds (up to 85% if cured early, down to 30%, nil after three years). Collected funds sit in an escrow account for managing legacy/orphan waste.
We keep your documentation audit-ready so you’re protected from Environmental Compensation.
Compliance you can forget about
We take the whole C&D Waste EPR obligation off your plate and stand behind every filing — backed by EPR specialists and a track record across India.
