HSN 8414 60 00 (kitchen hoods up to 120 cm) is covered by a Bureau of Indian Standards Quality Control Order.

Phased enforcement applies: small enterprises from 07 December 2024 and micro enterprises from 07 March 2025.
- 1Source only from a Bureau of Indian Standards CM/L-licensed manufacturer holding a current licence against IS 302 (Part 2/Section 31):2009 for kitchen extractor and ventilating hoods. Verify the supplier's CM/L number, licensed product scope, and manufacturing facility on the BIS online register before placing the purchase order.Electrical Appliances for Kitchen (Quality Control) Order, 2023 · S.O. 1128(E) dated 05-03-2024
- 2Ensure each hood bears the ISI mark and the supplier's CM/L number per Scheme-I of Schedule-II to the BIS (Conformity Assessment) Regulations, 2018. The mark must appear on the product itself, not packaging alone.Scheme-I of Schedule-II to the BIS (Conformity Assessment) Regulations, 2018 · Electrical Appliances for Kitchen (Quality Control) Order, 2023
- 3Confirm the enforcement date applicable to the exporting manufacturer's enterprise classification. The general date is 07 September 2024; small enterprises are covered from 07 December 2024 and micro enterprises from 07 March 2025. Document the classification basis if claiming a deferred date.Electrical Appliances for Kitchen (Quality Control) Order, 2023 · S.O. 1128(E) dated 05-03-2024
- 4Quote the supplier's BIS CM/L number on the bill of entry. Customs verifies the CM/L in real time against the BIS register; an absent, expired, or product-scope-mismatched licence triggers consignment detention, demurrage, and ground rent liability.Electrical Appliances for Kitchen (Quality Control) Order, 2023 · BIS Act, 2016 · Customs Act, 1962
The single most common error on this tariff line is citing the parent IS 302 on the bill of entry and supplier documentation without specifying Part 2/Section 31 — the section that governs kitchen extractors and ventilating hoods. A CM/L licensed only against a different section of IS 302 (for example, washing machines under Part 2/Section 7 or water heaters under Part 2/Section 21) does not satisfy the QCO obligation for kitchen hoods; customs will detain the consignment on a scope mismatch even where the IS number nominally appears correct.
