ISI Mark for Batteries Manufacturer

The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) requires multi-purpose dry battery producers to receive the ISI (Indian Standards Institute) certification to verify product safety, quality, and performance.  This certification is required for batteries used in consumer electronics, remote controls, flashlights, and other common household items.
 The certification follows IS 8144:2018, which establishes criteria for general-purpose dry batteries such as zinc-carbon and alkaline batteries.  The ISI mark assures that batteries fulfill high quality standards, including voltage stability, leakage resistance, and shelf life.
The Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS) requires local and international firms to test their products in BIS-certified laboratories before getting approval.  The testing method consists of performance evaluations, environmental effect studies, and safety compliance inspections.  Once certified, the ISI logo must be shown on battery packaging to indicate compliance with Indian regulations.
This accreditation protects consumers from inferior items while also supporting the Indian government’s initiative for quality assurance and import restrictions.  Noncompliance may result in penalties, market prohibitions, or legal action.
 For manufacturers wishing to enter the Indian market, BIS ISI certification is critical for product credibility and long-term company viability.
