Semi-finished steel products like steel ingots, blooms, and billets are essential to the production of a large range of completed steel goods, such as industrial equipment, mechanical parts, building materials, and automobile components. Their size, content, and quality are important aspects that affect how well the finished steel items work and behave.
To produce mild steel wire rods that satisfy the strict specifications for strength, ductility, and performance in a variety of technical applications, premium steel ingots, blooms, and billets are essential. These raw materials provide the basis for the production of mild steel wire rods, which are widely utilized in a variety of industries and are dependable and adaptable.
To guarantee the quality, composition, and applicability of the raw materials, specifications for steel ingots, blooms, and billets used in the production of mild steel wire rods for general engineering applications are essential guidelines. Manufacturers may create premium mild steel wire rods that satisfy the performance requirements of many technical applications by following these parameters.
Under IS standard IS 8952: 1995, all steel ingots, blooms, and billets used in the manufacturing of mild steel wire rods for general engineering uses are covered by the required ISI Certification Scheme.
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.

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
