Foxwyn Global Assurance LLP
BIS RegistrationBuilt on standards.
A clear path to product compliance in India. Expert consultancy for ISI, CRS, FMCS and Scheme X—from classification to assessment readiness.
Understand the framework
One standards body.
Different paths to conformity.
The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) is India’s national standards body. Its product-certification and registration schemes demonstrate conformity to the relevant Indian Standard. Your route depends on what you make, where you make it and the applicable government notification.
Consultancy, not certification issuance
Foxwyn supports requirements review, documentation and coordination. BIS independently evaluates applications and grants approvals. Reference marks do not imply affiliation, accreditation or product approval.

Technical conformity assessment
Scheme X
Scheme X is a conformity-assessment route under the BIS (Conformity Assessment) Regulations. Assessment may involve a technical file, product compliance report, testing and evaluation at the manufacturing premises or another relevant site. The applicable order and BIS guidance determine the route and evidence.
Who it is for
Manufacturers of machinery or electrical equipment eligible for Scheme X, subject to operative product-specific requirements.
Eligible machinery and electrical equipment covered by current BIS guidance or operative orders. Do not assume that all machinery requires mandatory Scheme X certification.
Official BIS scheme guidanceKey documentation & assessment
- Product identification, intended use and technical specifications
- Applicable standards, risk assessment and technical file
- Design drawings, safety measures and product compliance report
- Testing, site evaluation and closure evidence under applicable guidance
After approval
Follow the licence or certificate conditions and review design, scope and regulatory changes. Machinery-safety certification following rescission of the 2024 Omnibus Order is voluntary under the August 2026 BIS guidance; separate electrical-equipment orders still need checking.
Scheme X regulatory note: Mandatory coverage is product-specific. The August 2026 machinery-safety guidance follows rescission of the 2024 Omnibus Order and describes voluntary certification. Check separate electrical-equipment orders and current amendments. Read BIS guidance.
Indian Standards & product scope
The right standard comes first.
There is no single BIS standard for every product. Each application needs the relevant technical standard, product scope and current scheme requirements.
Identify the Indian Standard
Map the exact product, construction, ratings and intended use to the current Indian Standard. Confirm edition, amendments, test clauses and the applicable product manual.
Check mandatory coverage
Review the operative QCO or notification, product description, exemptions and effective requirements. A broad category or HS code alone does not confirm applicability.
Match the approval scope
Define the factory, products, sizes, ratings, brands and model families. Grouping and additional testing must follow the relevant scheme and product guidance.

Examples from the BIS framework—not a complete list or an applicability decision. Always verify the latest edition, amendments and operative notification.
IS 269
Scheme I / ISI
Ordinary Portland cement
Product-specific testing, quality controls and factory assessment.
IS/IEC 62368-1:2023
Scheme II / CRS for notified categories
Specified audio/video, information and communication technology equipment
Safety testing and prescribed registration evidence; verify category and transition provisions.
IS/IEC 60947-2
Scheme X where covered by the operative order
Low-voltage circuit breakers
Technical documentation and conformity assessment under product-specific requirements.
FMCS applies the relevant Scheme I product standard at an overseas manufacturing location. Standard numbers alone do not establish mandatory certification. Full standards and amendments are available through BIS’s official catalogue.
The Foxwyn approach
From product review to compliance readiness.
- 01
Classify your product
Identify the product, country of manufacture, Indian Standard and applicable QCO or notification.
- 02
Define the scope
Confirm the correct scheme, factory, brands, models and product variants before preparing the application.
- 03
Prepare the evidence
Compile technical documents, quality controls, factory records and AIR documents where applicable.
- 04
Coordinate testing
Plan samples and testing with a laboratory recognised or accepted for the scheme and standard.
- 05
Support assessment
Coordinate filing, inspection or technical evaluation and responses to BIS queries and non-conformities.
- 06
Maintain compliance
After the BIS decision, support marking, surveillance readiness, renewal and approved scope changes.
The sequence varies by scheme. Government fees, laboratory charges, assessment schedules and approval decisions are outside Foxwyn’s control.
