BIS Rules for Household and Commercial Electric Multi-purpose Cooking Pans

Introduction

IS 302 Part 1 2024 deals with the safety needs of household and commercial electric multipurpose cooking pans. This type of pan is a common appliance in kitchens, cafés, and restaurants. They are used for various cooking, frying, and baking applications, and so are commonly used for everyday cooking. The food industry is expanding rapidly, and social media is also driving more demand for these pans. This rise in demand creates space for imports and exports as well.

A BIS licence is now needed for these cooking pans. The ISI mark tells buyers that the product is safe to use. To get this mark, makers must follow BIS rules and complete the licence steps. They must also pay BIS licence fees and finish customs clearance when bringing goods into India.
