In January 2024, India’s Telecommunications Engineering Centre (TEC) issued a significant notification regarding generic exemptions due to the absence of available test laboratories within the country. These exemptions represent a crucial development, indicating that specific parameters no longer require the submission of test reports if customers cannot provide them.
It’s important to note that while these exemptions are in place, ILAC reports for CE/FCC are still subject to regulations based on the specific product category. This means that evaluation criteria for these reports vary depending on the nature of the product.
