Mission: sustainability

E-waste Management

Our commitment to responsibly managing the electronic hardware behind ALMA ERP — from data centres to demo devices.

Last updated: 29 June 2026

Our Commitment

As a technology provider to thousands of institutions, Navarasa Services LLP. recognises its responsibility to manage electronic waste (e-waste) generated by our own operations — servers, demo devices, networking equipment and office IT — in an environmentally sound manner.

Policy Overview

Our e-waste practices are aligned with the principles of India's E-Waste (Management) Rules, including extended producer responsibility, safe storage, and channelling end-of-life equipment only to authorised recyclers and dismantlers.

Extended Producer Responsibility

Where ALMA ERP supplies hardware (such as biometric attendance devices) to institutions, we take responsibility for that equipment at end-of-life — offering collection points and take-back programs rather than leaving disposal to the institution alone.

Take-Back & Collection Program

  • Institutions can request a pickup for retired ALMA ERP-supplied hardware through support.
  • Collected devices are logged, data-wiped, and routed to authorised recyclers.
  • No e-waste from our operations is sent to informal or unauthorised recycling channels.

Authorised Recycling Partners

We work only with e-waste recyclers and dismantlers authorised by the relevant State Pollution Control Board, ensuring hazardous components are processed safely and recoverable materials are reused responsibly.

Hazardous Substance Compliance

Hardware sourced for ALMA ERP deployments is selected with preference for RoHS-compliant components, limiting the use of hazardous substances such as lead, mercury and cadmium wherever commercially viable.

Customer Responsibilities

Institutions disposing of their own IT hardware (laptops, tablets, routers) used to access ALMA ERP are encouraged to use authorised e-waste collection centres in their area rather than general waste disposal.

How to Return Old Hardware

To arrange a return or collection of ALMA ERP-supplied devices, email info@almaerp.in with your institution ID and device details, and our team will coordinate pickup at no cost to you.
