The most common error on this tariff line is treating the Regulations, 2026 as prospective and assuming earlier stock pre-labelled under prior BEE schemes continues to qualify without fresh conformance verification. The 2026 Regulations issued vide Notification No. 5506/BEE/S&L/AL/2025-26 establish the current operative labelling standard; consignments that carry label declarations referencing superseded notifications are liable to detention pending re-verification, regardless of physical energy performance.
