In certain government jurisdictions, producers must comply with EPR requirements for items. This is to promote proper recycling and extensive sustainable recycling for certain materials. Producer organizations must file EPR returns annually. An EPR return for waste is just like ITR or Income Tax Return. As a producer, they must file an account of waste managed by them or their PROs throughout the previous year so that the Govt knows that you are fulfilling your obligation towards environmental sustainability goals.
