DIFFICULTIES IN IMPLEMENTATION
(A) Manufacturers

spot.

share of only 40% against 60 market share with
unauthorized manufacturers which are not effectively
covered under the Rule.
 Only manufacturer is penalized as it is sole responsibility
of manufacture to get the forms from Dealer and file with

 Private parties are importing batteries and selling it.
Without bothering to collect the scrap batteries and send to
the authorized Recycler
Contd…
(B) Dealers
 There is no guarantee that the customer will return scrap
battery after purchase of new battery to the same dealer.
 Legislation cannot cover the customer effectively.
