Plastic packaging exemption: imported goods are excluded from the PWM rules' labelling requirement on packaging. The notice clarifies that the labelling requirement in Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016-mandating producer/brand name, registration number and thickness for carry bags and plastic packaging-is not applicable to plastic packaging used for imported goods; similar non applicability extends to cases covered by the Legal Metrology packaged commodities exception after regulatory approval and to instances where printing the information is technically infeasible under applicable labelling guidelines. Environmental compensation applies for non compliance generally, but the specified labelling provision is excluded for imported packaging.
