TaxClue does not handle this service. It is on the checklist because many of our clients need it. Raise a request and we will try to connect you with someone who can do it, where possible.
How EPR registration (plastic packaging) works

- Quantity and category of plastic packaging used, by year
- Details of the states you sell in
- Consent from the state pollution control board, for producers
The process
- Work out your plastic packaging by category and weight
- Register on the CPCB centralised EPR portal
