India is making her mark in the global economy. Towards this,
there has also been a focused initiative towards ensuring
India's recognition on the global stage as a quality conscious
country. In keeping with this policy, the Department for Promotion
of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) along with the Bureau of
Indian Standards (BIS) introduced quality control orders (QCOs)
requiring BIS certification for over 370 than across various
sectors.
One of the sectors brought under the scanner of BIS
certification is the toy sector.
Most of the toy manufacturing by the world's leading brands,
was undertaken in countries like China, Vietnam, and Indonesia (and
now India too).The coverage of toys under BIS, made it mandatory
for manufacturing units across the world to obtain quality related
certification in order to affix the ISI mark on toys manufactured
for sale in India.
