Manufacturing units in Delhi NCR, including Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad, and Faridabad, must comply with BIS requirements if they produce products covered under mandatory certification. Electronic and IT products are registered under the Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS), while other notified products need a BIS license with the ISI mark. Demand for BIS-certified products keeps rising in 2026 because of stricter quality laws, updated Indian Standards, and expanding coverage, including the Electrical Appliances Quality Control Order, 2026, which comes into force on October 1, 2026, and brings 90+ additional appliance categories under mandatory certification.
This guide explains the complete BIS registration process, documents, testing requirements, fees, and timeline, including the 5-year validity now available for CRS registrations, and how manufacturers in Delhi NCR can obtain the certificate quickly with expert help.
The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) certifies that a product meets Indian safety and quality standards. For manufacturers in Delhi NCR dealing in electronics, LED products, IT gadgets, toys, or electrical equipment, BIS registration is mandatory before selling products in India.
Manufacturers must apply under the correct category based on their product:
For electronics & IT products such as:
For products requiring safety and quality standards:
For gold, silver, and precious metals.
For manufacturers in Delhi NCR, CRS and ISI certification are the most commonly required approvals.
You must obtain BIS Registration if you:
The first and most important step in BIS registration is identifying the correct Indian Standard (IS Code) applicable to your product. Every product category is governed by a specific BIS standard that defines safety, performance, and quality requirements. Selecting the correct IS code ensures that your product is tested against the right compliance framework, which directly impacts approval success.
For example, different products are mapped to different IS standards such as lighting products, power devices, and toys. Manufacturers must carefully match their product specifications with BIS-notified standards before moving ahead in the process to avoid rejection or delays.
Examples of IS Codes:
LED Lights โ IS 10322
Power Banks โ IS 13252 / IS 16046
Toys โ IS 9873
After identifying the correct IS code, the next step is selecting the appropriate BIS registration type. This classification is important because BIS offers different certification routes depending on whether the product is electronic, electrical, or safety-critical in nature.
The chosen registration type decides the entire approval workflow, including documentation requirements, testing standards, and certification timelines. Selecting the wrong category can lead to application rejection or unnecessary delays.
Certification Types:
Electronics & IT Products โ Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS)
Electrical & Mechanical Products โ ISI Mark Certification
In this step, manufacturers must prepare all mandatory documents required for BIS registration. Proper documentation ensures smooth verification and reduces the chances of queries during BIS scrutiny.
These documents establish the identity of the manufacturer, product authenticity, and compliance readiness. In some cases, additional documents like trademark authorization may also be required depending on the product category.
Required Documents:
Factory license
MSME/Udyam certificate
ISO certificate
Product technical details
Manufacturing process flow
Brand/trademark details (if applicable)
Product testing is a mandatory step where samples are tested at BIS-approved laboratories, especially in Delhi NCR locations such as Noida, Gurugram, Okhla, and Greater Noida.
This testing ensures that the product meets Indian safety, performance, and quality standards as defined under the applicable IS code. Without passing lab testing, BIS registration cannot proceed further.
Testing typically evaluates safety parameters, electrical performance, durability, and standard compliance.
Once testing is completed successfully, the applicant must submit the BIS registration application on the MANAK Online Portal. All supporting documents, test reports, and product details must be uploaded in the prescribed format.
This submission formally initiates the BIS review process, where authorities begin evaluating the application for compliance and accuracy.
After submission, BIS authorities review the entire application, including documents and laboratory test reports. If any discrepancies or missing information are found, BIS may raise clarification queries.
Applicants must respond promptly and accurately to avoid delays in approval. Proper coordination during this stage is critical for smooth certification.
Once BIS is satisfied with the application and supporting documents, it issues the CRS or ISI certificate along with a unique registration number.
This certificate allows the manufacturer to legally sell and distribute products in India, confirming full compliance with BIS standards and enhancing market credibility.
