Cell Grading & Diagnostics
NCR — Gurugram Collection & Grading Hub
Plot 14, Sector 34 Industrial Estate, Gurugram, Haryana 122001
Gurugram sits at the centre of the National Capital Region's automotive belt, a short drive from the Manesar and IMT Bawal manufacturing clusters and from the regional service networks of India's largest passenger-vehicle makers. The hub opened in Sector 34 in 2019 so that NCR fleets, dealers and component suppliers could have packs graded close to where they are removed, rather than trucking them hundreds of kilometres south before anyone knows what they are worth..

Integrated Recovery Campus
Pune — Chakan Industrial Recovery Campus
Gat 221, Chakan MIDC Phase II, Pune, Maharashtra 410501
Chakan is one of Maharashtra's densest automotive manufacturing zones, with vehicle assembly, two-wheeler production and a deep bench of tier-one suppliers spread along the Pune–Nashik corridor. The campus opened inside Chakan MIDC Phase II in 2020 to serve that ecosystem directly, taking material from the plants and suppliers around it without the cost and risk of a long first transport leg..

Hydrometallurgical Refinery
Chennai — Sriperumbudur Recovery Campus
Unit 7, Mahindra World City SEZ, Sriperumbudur, Tamil Nadu 602105
Sriperumbudur and the wider Chennai corridor host one of India's heaviest concentrations of vehicle assembly, electronics manufacturing and export logistics.

Cell Grading & Diagnostics
Bengaluru — Hosur Diagnostics Centre
SIPCOT Industrial Complex Phase III, Hosur, Tamil Nadu 635126
Hosur, just across the Tamil Nadu border from Bengaluru, is one of India's largest two-wheeler manufacturing centres and has become a focal point for electric two-wheeler production. The diagnostics centre opened in SIPCOT Industrial Complex Phase III in 2021 to grade the small-format packs this belt produces in very large numbers, as well as retirements from Bengaluru's delivery and ride-hailing fleets..

Reverse Logistics Yard
Gujarat — Sanand Reverse Logistics Yard
Plot 42, Sanand GIDC Phase II, Ahmedabad, Gujarat 382110
Sanand, west of Ahmedabad, grew into a major automotive hub after vehicle makers established plants in its GIDC estates, and Gujarat has since drawn large investments in cell and battery manufacturing. The reverse logistics yard opened in Sanand GIDC Phase II in 2022 to consolidate retired, rejected and damaged packs from this fast-growing corridor before they travel to processing sites elsewhere in India..

Reverse Logistics Yard
Delhi — Narela Collection Yard
Plot 9, DSIIDC Industrial Area, Narela, Delhi 110040
Narela, in north-west Delhi, is one of the capital's larger planned industrial areas, with good access to the northern arterial roads and to the depots of Delhi's bus operators, e-rickshaw fleets and delivery companies. The collection yard opened in the DSIIDC industrial area in 2022 to shorten collection times inside the city, where goods-vehicle restrictions make long runs from outside NCR slow and expensive..

Cell Grading & Diagnostics

A-31, RIICO Industrial Area Phase IV, Bhiwadi, Rajasthan 301019
Bhiwadi lies on the Rajasthan–Haryana border, part of the Delhi–Jaipur industrial corridor, with a mix of automotive component, electronics and engineering plants in its RIICO estates. The grading station opened in 2023 to add diagnostics capacity near the NCR while giving Rajasthan's growing electric fleets and suppliers a closer alternative to sending material to Gurugram.

Reverse Logistics Yard
Lucknow — Unnao Collection Yard
Site II, UPSIDA Industrial Area, Unnao, Uttar Pradesh 209801
Unnao, between Lucknow and Kanpur, sits on a long-established industrial axis in Uttar Pradesh, the state with one of India's largest e-rickshaw populations. The collection yard opened in the UPSIDA industrial area in 2023 to give central Uttar Pradesh a formal channel for batteries that would otherwise end up with informal dismantlers, where unsafe breaking destroys value and creates fire and pollution risks..

Hydrometallurgical Refinery
Kolkata — Haldia Refining Works
Plot 6, Haldia Industrial Growth Centre, Purba Medinipur, West Bengal 721657
Haldia is a port and petrochemical town on the Hooghly estuary, with long experience of chemical handling and bulk shipping. The refining works opened in the Haldia Industrial Growth Centre in 2020 to give eastern India a hydrometallurgical outlet close to both industrial reagent supply and port access, so black mass produced in the east does not have to cross the country to be refined..

Integrated Recovery Campus
Hyderabad — Zaheerabad Recovery Campus
NIMZ Industrial Node, Zaheerabad, Telangana 502220
Zaheerabad, west of Hyderabad, hosts a node of the National Investment and Manufacturing Zone, and the surrounding area has established vehicle and tractor manufacturing.

Hydrometallurgical Refinery
Visakhapatnam — Atchutapuram Refinery
APSEZ Sector 4, Atchutapuram, Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh 531011
Atchutapuram, south of Visakhapatnam, is part of Andhra Pradesh's coastal industrial belt and lies close to the deep-water port facilities of India's east coast. The refinery opened in the APSEZ in 2022 to add refining capacity near shipping routes, complementing the Haldia works further north and giving southern and eastern campuses a second destination for their black mass.

Cell Grading & Diagnostics
Kochi — Kalamassery Diagnostics Bench
KINFRA Park, Kalamassery, Ernakulam, Kerala 683503
Kalamassery, on the northern edge of Kochi, hosts KINFRA's industrial park and sits within easy reach of the port city's logistics network. Kerala has an active electric two-wheeler and three-wheeler market and has run state electric bus programmes.

Sector 3, Pithampur Industrial Area, Dhar, Madhya Pradesh 454775
Pithampur, near Indore, is one of central India's largest automotive manufacturing areas, with a strong presence of commercial vehicle and component makers. The grading plant opened there in 2022 to serve Madhya Pradesh and surrounding states, which previously had to send retired packs long distances to western or southern sites before learning whether they had any reuse value.

Second-Life BESS Works
Nagpur — Butibori Second-Life Works
Plot 28, Butibori MIDC, Nagpur, Maharashtra 441122
Butibori MIDC, south of Nagpur, is one of Maharashtra's largest industrial areas and sits near the geographic centre of India, on major road and rail routes in every direction.

Reverse Logistics Yard
Bhubaneswar — Khordha Collection Yard
IDCO Industrial Estate, Khordha, Odisha 752055
Khordha, near Bhubaneswar, gives the network a collection point in Odisha, a state with rising electric two- and three-wheeler use and a large base of mining and metals industry. The yard opened in an IDCO industrial estate in 2024, making it one of the newest sites, to bring dispersed eastern volumes into a documented channel instead of leaving them with informal dismantlers..

Reverse Logistics Yard
Guwahati — Changsari North-East Yard
AIIDC Growth Centre, Changsari, Kamrup, Assam 781101
Changsari, near Guwahati, is the network's only site in north-east India. The region's distance from major processing centres and its difficult terrain make formal battery collection expensive, so the yard opened in an AIIDC growth centre in 2024 to create a local consolidation point where batteries can be stored safely until a full, economical load is ready.

Second-Life BESS Works
Ludhiana — Mandi Gobindgarh Second-Life Works
Focal Point Phase VI, Mandi Gobindgarh, Punjab 147301
Mandi Gobindgarh, near Ludhiana, is known for its steel and engineering industry and sits on Punjab's main industrial corridor. The second-life works opened in Focal Point Phase VI in 2023 to supply stationary storage to agriculture, small industry and telecom operators in north India, where unreliable grid supply creates steady demand for affordable backup.

Recycling near India: common questions
Where is the nearest battery recycling facility to India?
NCR — Gurugram Collection & Grading Hub at Plot 14, Sector 34 Industrial Estate, Gurugram, Haryana 122001 is the primary site serving India. 17 more facilities are listed on this page.
Can I drop off an EV battery myself in India?
Yes, by appointment at Chakan, Maharashtra, Sanand, Gujarat, Taloja, Maharashtra. Lithium-ion packs are dangerous goods, so most customers book a collection instead — we supply packaging and paperwork.
What should I bring or prepare?
Pack serial numbers, chemistry if known, approximate state of charge (below 30% for transport) and a note of any damage, swelling or thermal events. Tape exposed terminals.
Is there a charge for recycling in India?
Most EV packs have positive value after grading. Damaged or very small consignments may carry a handling or transport charge, which is quoted before collection.
Damaged or defective packs are handled under a separate quarantine protocol — flag them in the form and the team calls you back the same day.
