Abstract

The extended producer responsibility (EPR) policy is a vital enabler of the circular economy. The study analyses the Indian industry perspective on EPR policy instruments. It also develops the Situation-Actors-Process–Learning-Actions-Performance (SAP–LAP) framework to analyse the effect of EPR policy instruments on corporate performance. The descriptive analysis of the primary survey data shows that the EPR instruments are perceived to be important. The EPR implementation also has a positive effect on the organizational performance and the select elements of the corporate competitiveness. Based on the findings, the practitioners are suggested to put requisite attention and resources into product design aspects besides the prevailing elements of the collection and recycling targets set by the regulator. Including retailers and consumers shall accelerate the move toward the circular economy in India. A frequently updated open cloud-based corporate data reporting portal may help in uniform stakeholder information availability.
