According to this scheme, the products are eligible for testing in a BIS-recognised lab and registered with BIS before they are sold in the Indian market.

Before the cash Registers are allowed to be registered, they should meet the requirements for safety as specified in IS 13252 (Part 1):2010. Once approved, the manufacturers can use the Standard mark following BIS guidelines.

BIS CRS Certification is an indicator that the product has been tested with respect to the requirements and meets the regulatory requirements for sale in India.
