(2003)
(iii) After second year :- 90% of new batteries sold(2004 onwards)
DIFFICULTIES IN IMPLEMENTATION(A) Manufacturers offered best price possible for scrap battery
– requires documentation is to be done
– cannot pay cash
– cannot make the payment without bill
cannot compete with unauthorized users. Due to the reverse logistic involved in collecting the batteries
form door step of dealer to the collection centre– Normally takes 7 days
– payment can be made only after 7 days to the dealer in that manner
– cannot compete unauthorized user as they are ready to pay cash on the spot.
Contd…
only authorized manufacturer of batteries having market 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 MPCB.
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. IN case of battery sold to UPS / Invertors as new
assembly then dealer may not be in a position to collect the battery.
Dealers can earn cash money if batteries are sold to unauthorized smelters. For that no paper work is required.
Contd…
(C) Importers
Sealed Maintenance Free L A B (SMF)/ Valve Regulated L A B (VRLA)
Sale of batteries along with consumer product : indirect contact with consumer
Cost of transportation involved, man-hours, spend for collection is in economical
SMF / VRLA has new market having durability of life four years There is no contract agreement between consumer and importer/
dealer Presently there is no set-up network of dealers of individual
importers Presently there is no co-ordination amongst dealers of importer,
manufacturers and other dealers to collect L A B.
Contd…
(D) Recycler
In between period of application of Renewal registration up to obtained renewal registration they cannot purchase batteries
Xerox copies of registration is used by some other parties for purchasing batteries
Confusion due lack of clarity between Batteries Rules2001 and H.W. (M & H) 2003
Joint regular meeting between stakeholders for• Better operation,
• Appropriate documentations,
• Monitoring and it’s impact, and
• Improvement in operation system
STEPS TAKEN BY MPCB
Public Notice issued in print mediaRegional and Sub-Regional levels survey are
initiated Awareness campaignImplementation of EST in recycling units through
Consent management Legal actions against defaulters
