EPR stands for Extended Producer's Responsibility. It is a policy whereby producers are held responsible for the environmental impact of their products, even after they have been sold. In India, EPR is mandatory for all electronic and electrical products, including phablets.

A phablet is a mobile device combining or straddling the size formats of smart phones and tablets. It typically has a screen size of 5.5 inches or larger.

To obtain EPR authorization for phablets in India, manufacturers and importers must submit an application to the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB). The application must include the following information:

  • The name and address of the manufacturer or importer
  • The type and quantity of phablets being imported or manufactured
  • The name and address of the recycling agency that will be responsible for collecting and recycling the e-waste
  • A copy of the agreement between the manufacturer or importer and the recycling agency.
