E-Waste Audit Services under E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2022

With rapid growth in electronic consumption, electronic waste (E-Waste) is increasing at an unprecedented rate. Discarded electronic equipment contains hazardous substances such as lead, mercury, cadmium, and brominated compounds, which can cause serious environmental and health risks if not managed responsibly.

An E-Waste Audit helps organisations identify, quantify, track, and manage e-waste, verify compliance with regulatory obligations, and implement environmentally sound collection, storage, recycling, and disposal practices under the E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2022 (effective from 1 April 2023)

Simplicomp Tech LLP provides structured E-Waste Audit services to support producers, manufacturers, importers, bulk consumers, refurbishers, dismantlers, and recyclers in achieving legal compliance, risk reduction, and sustainable e-waste management.

What Is an E-Waste Audit?

An E-Waste Audit is a systematic assessment of :-

Types and quantities of e-waste generated
Storage, handling, and disposal practices
Compliance with E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2022
Effectiveness of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)mechanisms
Environmental, legal, and operational risks

It ensures organisations move beyond basic compliance toward responsible, circular, and sustainable electronics waste management.
