Substances that interact with magnetic fields are known as magnetic materials because they possess magnetic characteristics. Based on their magnetic characteristics and behavior, these materials may be divided into several groups.
A subcategory of magnetic materials are magnetic materials such as Fe-based amorphous strips. Fe-based amorphous strips are prized for having a special set of magnetic characteristics that enable them to be used in applications where high-performance magnetic components, minimal energy losses, and effective magnetic switching are crucial. Fe-based amorphous strips are delivered in a semi-processed condition, which enables producers to utilize the material's intrinsic magnetic characteristics while tailoring it to particular applications.
Due to their distinct magnetic characteristics and capacity to serve a variety of sectors, such as electronics, energy, and automotive, Fe-based amorphous strips in their semi-processed form are in high demand. The need for these materials is anticipated to change in step with technological advancements and industry demands for more sustainable and effective solutions.
The criteria and standards for magnetic materials are outlined in the specifications, guaranteeing uniformity and quality in both their manufacture and application. These criteria support technological progress, sustainability objectives, and the general competitiveness of sectors that use magnetic materials such as Fe-based amorphous strips. Although these strips are described as semi-processed, they may still need additional production stages before being used in a finished product.
The required ISI Certification Scheme under IS standard IS 16585: 2023 now includes specifications for particular materials, such as Fe-based amorphous strip provided in a semi-processed form, for all magnetic materials.
Without the ISI Mark, this product cannot be marketed, imported, or exported into the Indian consumer market.
Indian Standards Institute, or ISI was renamed the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in 1987. The official mark that the Bureau of Indian Standards provides for manufacturers of various goods is the ISI Mark. It is used to indicate compliance with Indian standards (IS) set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and has been used as a conformity marking for industrial products. Manufacturers received permission from BIS to use the ISI Mark on items that comply with relevant Indian requirements through the product certification program.
Only manufacturers (domestic or foreign) who produce the finished product will be awarded ISI Certification. This will not be given to any product importers, traders, dealers, or distributors.
The following documentation is required to get an ISI certification:

There are two approaches for Indian manufacturers to become certified with the ISI Mark:
Regular Procedure
With the possible exception of cases deemed "All India first," which might take up to 180 days, the licensing procedure is expected to be finished in 120 days. This timeline starts on the day the application is received, assuming that at different points in time the documentation, unit assessment, and product conformance are all deemed acceptable.
Step 1: Manufacturing Unit Customization in Compliance with Applicable Indian Standards
Step 2: Submission of the Application Form

Simplified Procedure
This is a much faster process than the standard procedure. After a factory inspection is deemed satisfactory and the initial evaluation establishes that the sample complies with the applicable Indian Standard(s), the license application process is expected to be finished in 30 days.
Step 1: Adapting the Manufacturing Unit to Comply with the Relevant Indian Standard
Step 2: Sample Testing
