There is no Quality Control Order (QCO) for Liquid Off - Take Valve Fitting to Gas Cylinders or Tanks (Mobile or Static) for Liquid today. This means the ISI mark for IS 16484 is optional. Many makers still get it, because government tenders, large buyers and online marketplaces often ask for it.
How it works: a BIS-approved lab tests your samples against IS 16484. A BIS officer then visits your factory. If everything is in order, BIS gives you a licence. You can then print the ISI mark with your licence number (CM/L number). Factories outside India apply under the Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme (FMCS). They must also name a representative in India, called an Authorised Indian Representative (AIR).
Every year you pay BIS a minimum marking fee. It is ₹15,800 for micro firms and ₹79,000 for large firms. The fee also depends on how much you make: ₹0.90 per valve. You pay whichever amount is higher. These prices are a guide only and do not include GST.
