Indian electric vehicle traction battery safety requirements-CMVR Approval,
CMVR Approval,

▍Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS)

Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology released Electronics & Information Technology Goods-Requirement for Compulsory Registration Order I-Notified on 7th September, 2012, and it came into effect on 3rd October, 2013. Electronics &Information Technology Goods Requirement for Compulsory Registration, what is usually called BIS certification, is actually called CRS registration/certification. All electronic products in the compulsory registration product catalog imported to India or sold in the Indian market must be registered in the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). In November 2014, 15 kinds of compulsory registered products were added. New categories include: mobile phones, batteries, power banks, power supplies, LED lights and sales terminals, etc.

▍BIS Battery Test Standard

Nickel system cell/battery: IS 16046 (Part 1): 2018/ IEC62133-1: 2017

Lithium system cell/battery: IS 16046 (Part 2): 2018/ IEC62133-2: 2017

Coin cell/battery is included in CRS.

The Indian Government enacted Central Motor Vehicles Rules (CMVR) in 1989. The Rules stipulates that all road motor vehicles, construction machinery vehicles, agricultural and forestry machinery vehicles that are applicable to CMVR must apply for compulsory certification from certification bodies accredited by the Ministry of Transport of India. The Rules marks the beginning of vehicle certification in India. On September 15, 1997, the Indian government established the Automotive Industry Standard Committee (AISC), and the secretary ARAI drafted the relevant standards and issued them.
Traction battery is the key safety component of vehicles. ARAI successively drafted and issued the standards AIS-048, AIS 156 and AIS 038 Rev.2 specifically for its safety test requirements. As the earliest standard, AIS 048 will be replaced by AIS 156 & AIS 038 Rev.2 from April 1, 2023.
MCM has been dedicated to battery certification over 13 years, acquired high market reputation and completed testing qualifications. MCM has reached mutual recognition of test data with Indian laboratories, witness test can be conducted in MCM lab without sending samples to India.
