The electronic waste (e-waste) management in India is in its infancy state. The bottleneck is related with the basic concepts in the mind of the manufacturer, users and from the policy-makers. E-waste management depends on its awareness among the users initiated from manufacturer and the law-making agencies. Information Technology does not flow any sort of information related to e-waste management. The government brought Information Technology revolution, but did not promise the e-waste management policy. The management of ewaste chemistry could be easily regularised because nation has sufficient manpower to install recycling units. The two initiatives-Trishiraya and E-Parisara-are taken by government of India.
