Complete Guide for Manufacturers and Importers of Plasma/LCD/LED TVs (32 Inches & Above) for BIS CRS Certification

When making television sets or importing them into India, more than designing a quality product is involved. Those LCD or LED television sets with screen sizes of 32 inches or more, before they can be sold in India, have to be BIS-compulsorily registered as per the relevant Indian standard in accordance with the BIS Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS).

However, many manufacturers are affected by delays due to lack of knowledge of the product testing requirements, documentation, and BIS registration process. Failure to meet any of these compliance requirements can cause delays in product launches and market entry.

The BIS CRS certification isn't just a regulatory requirement; it's a testament to the fact that your television is not only safe but also complies with the safety standards set by the Indian government. This helps manufacturers build the confidence of their customers and provides them a hassle-free entry into the Indian market.

UMSPCS assists the manufacturers of plasma/LCD/LED televisions (32” & above) with full end-to-end support for BIS CRS certification, ranging from product testing to final registration of the products with BIS.
