    This has been mentioned in subcategory 5.1 & 5.2 of schedule I (Hazardous waste management, handling & trans-boundary rule). Residues containing oil, ETP sludge are the haz waste generated from automobile service stations....infact some oil soaked cotton waste too...

    and yes ETP Sludge generated frm automobile service station is hazardous in nature.
    Process waste, residues and sludges generated from paint booth are hazardous in nature (category 21)
