The Ministry of Commerce and Industry has recently issued a significant regulatory mandate titled the "Telescopic Ball Bearing Drawer Slide (Quality Control) Order, 2024," aimed at ensuring the quality and standards of telescopic ball-bearing drawer slides within the domestic market. This order, slated to take effect six months after its publication in the Official Gazette, delineates stringent criteria that telescopic ball-bearing drawer slides must adhere to. These slides are required to conform to the Indian Standard IS 17954:2023 and display the ISI Mark, a hallmark of quality assurance issued by the Bureau of Indian Standards under Scheme-1 of Schedule-II of the Bureau of Indian Standards (Conformity Assessment) Regulations, 2018. Certain exemptions have been outlined within the order, notably for goods intended for export that are manufactured domestically. Furthermore, micro and small enterprises, as classified under the Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Development Act, 2006, are granted a grace period of twelve and nine months, respectively, from the date of publication of this notification before they must fully comply with the stipulated standards. The Bureau of Indian Standards has been designated as the authoritative body responsible for certifying and enforcing compliance with these regulations concerning telescopic ball-bearing drawer slides. Any violations of this order will incur penalties as outlined in the Bureau of Indian Standards Act, 2016, underscoring the government's commitment to upholding product quality and consumer safety standards.
