LMPC Registration

Overview

In India, in order to safeguard customers from unfair commercial practices and guarantee correct information on product packaging, the packaging and labeling of numerous consumer products are regulated through the statutory procedure of Legal Metrology Packaged Commodity Registration or LMPC Certificate.

Businesses must follow certain criteria about the contents, labeling, along with packaging of the commodities they sell in order to comply with this registration, which is governed by the Act on Legal Metrology and Rules. The objective is to ensure that buyers obtain the quantity and caliber of goods specified on the package and are not deceived by inaccurate measurements or insufficient labeling. Businesses who want to uphold regulatory requirements and continue to conduct their business in a transparent manner need to apply for this registration.

A Certificate from LMPC: What Is It?

Legal metrology packaged commodities, or LMPCs, are defined as products that, in accordance with Indian Standards and Rule 27 of the Legal Metrology Act, 2009, ensure product accuracy. It is a crucial component of any company's production, sales, and distribution processes.

Why is it necessary to obtain an LMPC certificate for import?

Government verification that the company is following all legal procedures is accomplished by the issuance of an LMPC certificate for import. Businesses that deal with pre-packaged goods must have this accreditation. The certificate's ultimate goal is to provide market regulation of pre-packaged goods without obstacles.

What are the primary goals of LMPC registration, and what kinds of things fall under LMPC?

Improving customer confidence in importers and facilitating the sale of pre-packaged goods without creating legal obstacles for manufacturers is the primary goal. Some of the commodities included under the LMPC are rice powder, flour and rawa, sooji, soaps, minerals, drinking water, milk powders, and edible oils. Importers, packers, and manufacturers must register as LMPCs in Noida. Penalties for not procuring may apply when shipping goods. To avoid fines, all enterprises must obtain the LMPC certificate for import accreditation and strictly comply by the Legal Metrology Act.

Licenses in accordance with the law

Certificate of Model Approval.

The Central Government issues the model approval certificate, which is valid for products falling within the weights and measures category. To find out if a sample satisfies Indian standards or not, it must be sent to the laboratories for testing.

License for Imports.

If importers want to import measurements and weights, they must first get a license to import them under legal metrology. Once the model has been approved, an import license application can be made. The state government in which the items are imported issues an import license.

Registered Commodities in Packages.

All packaged goods that are going to be sold to retail customers must comply with the packaged commodity registration requirements.

The Central Government and the State Governments both grant registration for packaged commodities.
