A visit to Delhi’s Mayapuri scrap market or Mumbai’s scrap market, and the unorganised nature of India’s scrappage industry is at once apparent. No norms of scientific disposal of waste are followed. A good part of what could be recycled is lost, degrading the soil in the region and contaminating water streams and various natural resources in the region. Not counting the damage it would cause to the human beings working there. Any estimate about environment recuperation is hard to come by, and a reason enough to encourage the proliferation of an organised End-of-Life Vehicle (ELV) industry. In 2015, the Automotive Indian St nd d Committee under Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) framed the Automotive Industrial Standard 129 (AIS 129) for reuse, recycling and material recovery from autos. Since then, the focus of Indian auto industry has increasingly turned to designs that support vehicle refurbishment or recycling. They have outlined the role of material designers; the role of material advancements at the component design stage, and at the manufacturing stage.
