Today Every importer, supplier, and manufacturer wants to conduct business without encountering any obstacles, particularly legal or regulatory ones. If you are one of them, there are a few regulatory standards that you must meet before releasing your product to the market.
The Department of Electronics and Information Technology, in collaboration with the Bureau of Indian Standards, launched a mandatory registration scheme in 2012. (CRS). It specifies that before releasing a product to the market, every electronic and information technology product manufacturer must register it. If you do not, you may encounter many regulatory complications after launching your electronics and its goods. Let's start with the basics before delving into the BIS compliance standards.
Let us begin with the fundamentals.
BIS, or the Bureau of Indian Standards, is an organisation that operates under the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Health, and Public Distribution with the objective of providing high-quality products as well as safety and right usage of items sold in the Indian market. Regardless of the sort of electronic and IT product you intend to launch in the Indian market, you must obtain BIS registration for electronics products since it provides purchasers with a sense of assurance and trust.
Currently, practically every electronic product must obtain BIS certification for electronic devices, and toys, and meet Indian safety standards before being imported, produced, and sold in the Indian market.

OTHER GENERAL INFORMATION
Manufacturing Units are the only ones who can obtain a BIS Registration Certificate in their own names; importers and traders are not permitted.
When placing an order for a scheduled electronic item, all importers and traders must register with BIS for their specific production unit. They can manage the BIS Registration process on behalf of the applicable industrial unit. The manufacturing facility may be required to get BIS Registration under the importer's or trader's brand name.
Since an Indian Representative is necessary for BIS Registration, an importer or trader may function as the Indian Representative for a foreign manufacturing unit.
Every product must have a distinct marking label that cannot be removed, scratched off, or erased by normal washing. It is recommended that the goods be marked with an embossed or printed label. A printed metal plate with a label that is securely fastened to the items is another excellent option.
The product marking label must have the following information:
*Name of the Good (Category)
*Brand Name Model Number Power Input/Output Rating
*Manufacturer's Name, Country of Origin (Like Made In India, Made In China etc.)
Further information on the marking label is optional and can be included based on the product's specific requirements.

The applicant's (the manufacturer's) business license is necessary for BIS Registration. A business licence performs the following functions:

An exact English translation (in the same format), as well as a copy of the original licence, are required (if it is issued in another Language)

The company licences that do not include manufacturing or production as part of their business scope will be rejected.
Following receipt of the product's BIS Registration Number, every registered product and its packaging must bear the BIS Logo (model). The logo should not be washed or removed. It is recommended to print or emboss it. The logo should be prominently displayed and should be attached to or next to a label for marking reasons.
