In india e waste is growing at a rate of 10-15 percent annually.. still at present, 97 per cent of this waste is being recycled in the unorganised sector.
Found a little old but very informative article on the e wate managment in india.

During the last quarter of 2009, Berkshire more than doubled its investment in waste management company Republic Services to 8.3 million shares from 3.7 million in the earlier quarter. Despite the large bet, this stake is only worth some $230 million based on a $28 share price for Republic. It's certainly not tiny, but in Berkshire's world it's hardly significant. Nevertheless, Buffett doesn't invest a dime if he doesn't see value. Because Republic is in the waste-management business, Buffett clearly likes the boring, stable yet profitable, aspect of garbage hauling. And Republic is the second largest company of its kind after giant Waste Management

yes i have been invested in infotrek but its been not a great story so far. the management is not very aggressive it seems. the business potential is immense but the they are not getting huge chunks of business so far. although they have announced some big plans i would like to see the progress of their plans. but this is one company sitting on simply huge business opportunity.

infotrek is having mkt cap of around Rs. 9 cr. not big company. very unstable earning record in past 3-4 yrs. but promoter stake has increased from 34% to 36%. we might have to digg more.
