BIS Extends Withdrawal Dates of Indian Standards Through Corrigendum

In accordance with Rule 15(1) of the Bureau of Indian Standards Rules, 2018, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has revised the withdrawal dates of some Indian Standards that were previously announced in the Indian Gazette in a corrigendum dated 15 May, 2026. 

Also, the corrigendum modifies all earlier notices on the implementation and withdrawal schedules of particular standards that were sent out in October 2024, April 2025, and November 2025. The withdrawal date specified in the Serial Numbers 02 and 05 of the schedules has been extended from April 8, 2026, to October 8, 2026, in accordance with the updated notification. 

Further, for Serial Number 04, the withdrawal date has been revised from 08 April 2026 to 24 September, 2026. The extension may also provide additional transition time for manufacturers, industries, and stakeholders to align with the updated BIS standards (Bureau of Indian Standards) and compliance requirements. The corrigendum also reflects the BIS’s continued efforts to ensure the smooth implementation of the revised quality and regulatory standards across all sectors in India.
