What Is BIS Scheme X Certification?

The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) introduced Scheme X under the Machinery & Electrical Equipment Safety (Omnibus Technical Regulation) Order, 2024. This certification ensures that machinery and electrical equipment comply with relevant Indian Standards (IS) for safety, performance, and reliability. Starting from 1 September 2026, obtaining a BIS Licence or Certificate of Conformity (CoC) is mandatory for all manufacturers and importers before manufacturing or selling regulated products in India.
