This issue of the newsletter covers various news items on recent developments around BIS, a detailed article titled “Step-by-Step Guide to obtaining a licence under Scheme X of BIS for machinery and electrical equipment”, and updates relating to Quality Control Orders (QCOs). 

The article discusses the brief step-by-step guide on obtaining a licence or certificate of conformity from the Bureau of Indian Standards for machinery and electrical equipment pursuant to the Machinery and Electrical Equipment Safety (Omnibus Technical Regulation) Order, 2024 (‘OTR Order’).
