Every regulatory update, tracked in one feed.
We monitor BIS, WPC, BEE, MOEF, GeM, DGFT and every other authority relevant to your products, and summarise what changed in plain language. For the full legal text, every card links straight back to the original government portal.
Stricter traceability checks introduced across CRS registrations Update
BIS is now cross-checking registered models, lab test reports and market samples more closely — mismatches can trigger suspension. OEM/brand-ownership and factory-authorization documents are also under tighter review.
Standalone hard disk drives added to compulsory registration
MeitY’s amendment to the Electronics & IT Goods (CRO) brings standalone HDDs under mandatory BIS registration, with the requirement taking effect November 5, 2026.
BIS Conformity Assessment (Amendment) Regulations, 2026 notified
The amendment revises provisions around license validity periods under BIS’s conformity assessment framework — relevant to anyone renewing an existing CRS, ISI or FMCS license.
BIS Scheme-X (OTR) implementation window extended
The rollout deadline for Scheme-X — the omnibus technical regulation order covering the heavy industries sector — has been pushed to September 1, 2026, giving manufacturers additional runway to comply.
IT/AV equipment migrating to IS/IEC 62368-1:2023
Laptops, monitors, set-top boxes, routers and 40+ other CRS categories previously certified under IS 13252/IS 616 are moving to the newer hazard-based safety standard — re-testing may be required at renewal.
ETA approvals continue under 5-year validity cycle
Equipment Type Approval for Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, RFID and other de-licensed-band devices remains valid for five years from issue — plan renewal testing well before the expiry date to avoid a sales gap.
MTCTE now runs under the Telecommunications Act, 2023 framework Update
The Telecommunications (Framework to Notify Standards, Conformity Assessment and Certification) Rules, 2025 formalise MTCTE — network-connected telecom equipment cannot be sold or deployed in India without a valid Certificate of Conformity Assessment.
Recycled-content target rises for rigid plastic packaging
Category I rigid plastic packaging now carries a 30% minimum recycled-content requirement from FY 2025–26 — brand owners should reflect this in both sourcing and their EPR filings.
EPR annual return filing window extended
The deadline for filing FY 2024–25 EPR annual returns across e-waste, plastic, battery and tyre categories was pushed to December 31, 2025 — filing calendars are revised most years, so confirm the current window each cycle.
MoEFCC continues periodic revisions to hazardous-waste licensing
Import/export licensing guidelines for hazardous and other waste categories are reviewed periodically by the Ministry — check the notifications page directly before relying on a previously issued license format.
Mandatory RITES vendor assessment for new OEM onboarding Update
GeM now requires OEMs to clear a vendor assessment conducted through RITES Ltd — covering manufacturing capability, quality systems and financial standing — before certain listings are approved.
RCMC issuance fully migrated to the e-RCMC system
Registration-Cum-Membership Certificates are now issued through DGFT’s common e-RCMC portal, replacing manual issuance by individual Export Promotion Councils for most product categories.
Star Labelling energy-efficiency norms under periodic revision
BEE revises minimum energy-performance thresholds for star-rated appliance categories on a rolling schedule — products holding an older rating band should confirm it’s still current before shipment.
Separate EPR portals now live for each waste category
CPCB operates distinct EPR portals for e-waste, plastic packaging, battery, tyre and used-oil producer responsibility — a product spanning categories (e.g. a battery-powered plastic device) needs registration on each relevant portal.
