Can't comment on ITE equipment since we make Audio Video products but I have found this process to be very chaotic and time consuming for our products
There was a considerable amount of documentation required especially for the manufacturing facilities. There are only a handful of accredited labs in India and they are still trying to figure out what they need to do. CB reports are not officially recognized but are helpful. It took us close to 5 months to get our first report with a lot of back and forth with the test house and BIS and that was with local representation. Just a suggestion based on our experience. 1. Study the regulations and don't just rely on the Indian test lab you pick as they are still trying to figure things out. 2. Don't be afraid to push back with the lab as they are not experts yet and rely on BIS for direction. 3. Don't over think the forms you are required to complete. There is considerable documentation to be completed which takes a lot of time. 4. Don't wait until the last minute as the lead time is very long. Good luck.

Could anyone share their experience getting India approvals under this new scheme?
