The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), in accordance with Sub-rule (1) of Rule 15 of the BIS Rules, 2018, has officially informed the establishment of new Indian Standards. These newly known standards are listed in the second column of the accompanying schedule and come into effect from the dates mentioned in the third column.
Moreover, the notification gives information about any existing standards that will continue to remain valid alongside the new ones. These parallel standards are stated in the fourth column and will be valid until the dates mentioned in the fifth column, after which they will be officially withdrawn.
This move by the BIS aims to ensure a smooth transition and maintain regulatory clarity for manufacturers, service providers, and other stakeholders. The simultaneous operation of old and new standards allows businesses ample time to adapt their systems and comply with updated norms without disruption.
Stakeholders are advised to refer to the official schedule for detailed information on each standard and its effective or withdrawal date.
