What is "E-Waste"?
The E-waste (Management) Rules of 2022 define ''E-Waste' as electrical and electronic equipment, whole or in part discarded as waste, as well as rejects from manufacturing, refurbishment and repair processes.
Electronics such as monitors, projectors, controllers, displays or even their parts, which have reached the end of their useful life are called "E-Waste". If not recycled in an environmentally sound way, E-waste poses a range of environmental risks.
Important Do's and Don'ts
• As our valued customer, we encourage you to channelize your E-waste only through the collection channels.
• Do not mix E-waste in your home dustbins with other municipal waste.
• Do not dismantle any electronics/ electrical devices at home. Improper dismantling or recycling of E-waste is harmful for the environment.
• Do not sell the E-waste to any unauthorized agencies/scrap dealer/informal waste collector.
• Keep the product in isolated area, after it becomes non-functional/un-repairable to prevent its accidental breakage.
