BIS REGISTRATION FOR PLASMA/LCD/LED TELEVISIONS OF SCREEN SIZE 32"; AND ABOVE 

Plasma, LCD, and LED televisions are flat-panel devices used for home entertainment. LCD stands for Liquid Crystal Display, and use liquid crystals to create images on the screen. On the other hand, LED stands for Light Emitting Diodes, and is a type of LCD TV that uses LEDs as the backlight source instead of fluorescent lamps, offering improved energy efficiency and picture quality. Plasma TVs, on the other hand, offer excellent picture quality and motion handling but are less common due to their higher power consumption.

To ensure the quality and safety of these electronic devices the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has made it mandatory to be registered as per IS 616: 2010 under the Compulsory Registration Scheme (CRS). Registration requires compliance with the Indian Standard (IS 616: 2010). Both domestic and foreign manufacturers must obtain BIS Registration for plasma/LCD/led to be sold in the Indian market.

Under this scheme certain products are required to undergo mandatory testing and certification by BIS before importing, selling or distributing them in India.
