New BIS Quality Control Orders Implementations next Month – December 2024
28. November 2024We regularly publish advance information from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) on new Quality Control Orders that will soon come into force. Affected products must have BIS certification in order to be approved for import and distribution in India. Within the next month, several standards will come into effect, including for Cast aluminum and its alloys – Ingots and castings for general engineering purposes. This is just one example among others.
The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) Quality Control Orders (QCOs) are mandatory regulations that ensure that certain products meet national quality standards. While BIS standards are usually voluntary, QCOs make compliance mandatory for affected products. This serves to ensure product quality in India.
