For a company like CirQula, working at the intersection of e-waste collection, lithium battery recycling, and certified data destruction, this isn’t just an industry event to attend it’s a snapshot of where the whole ecosystem is headed.
CirQula India, a Kolkata-based, CPCB-authorised e-waste recycler, has now completed 100 doorstep e-waste pickups and onboarded 50+ corporates across the
If you’ve been searching for a reliable, compliant way to get rid of electronic waste in the city, this guide walks you through why it matters and how CirQula India is helping Kolkata close the loop.
This guide covers what lithium-ion battery recycling actually means in India today: the law behind it, why it matters, how the process works, and how individuals and businesses can dispose of batteries the right way through a CPCB-authorised recycler like CirQula.
Every year, India generates over 1.75 million tonnes of e-waste, and that number keeps climbing as our dependence on electronics grows. Old phones sit in drawers, broken chargers pile up in cupboards, and dead batteries end up in the regular trash, not because people don’t care, but because most of us were never taught what to do with them.
Old electronic products contain valuable metals and materials that can potentially be recovered and returned to the economy. This concept is often called urban mining—recovering useful resources from products that are already circulating in cities instead of relying only on newly mined resources.
This guide covers exactly how e-waste recycling works in Kolkata, the law, the hotspots to avoid, how to pick a genuine recycler, the step-by-step pickup process, and answers to the questions people actually search for before disposing of their electronics.
This is exactly the gap that authorised, science-led recyclers are trying to close. CirQula India works across e-waste, glass, tyres, solar panels, and lithium batteries — recovering usable materials and channelling them back into circulation instead of letting them sit in landfills or move through unregulated scrapyards.
