PIB parliamentary reply reiterates EWMR 2022 notification and cites amendment dates (30 Jan 2023; 24 Jul 2023) and EPR portal implementation statistics

A PIB-posted parliamentary reply on circular economy/EPR reiterates that the E‑Waste (Management) Rules, 2022 were notified on 02 Nov 2022 and references amendments dated 30 Jan 2023 and 24 Jul 2023. It also describes implementation status of online EPR portals (including for e‑waste) and provides operational statistics as of 05 Mar 2026 (e.g., registrations/certificates). This is not itself a new amendment, but provides official confirmation of the operative EWMR framework and implementation posture useful for compliance messaging and audit readiness.
