Flipkart does not publish a public list of BIS products. Instead, its Seller Hub terms of use make every seller declare that it holds all the certificates Indian law requires: BIS under the ISI scheme and CRS, BEE, WPC and TEC approvals, plastic waste compliance and the Legal Metrology declarations. Flipkart can then ask for the documents, and the terms let it suspend sellers who cannot produce the BIS licence documents. So the practical rule is simple: if a product is under a BIS order, have the licence before you list it.
This guide is based on Flipkart’s Seller Hub terms of use and seller blog as published in November 2026. Check the current terms and your seller account, because Flipkart can change them.
What Flipkart asks for at registration
Flipkart’s terms list the information a seller must give to register:
- Seller’s complete name, address and contact details
- Grievance officer details for consumer complaints
- GSTIN, PAN and business PAN
- Pick-up address and registered address
- Bank account details, account holder name and a cancelled cheque
- Signature, display name and legal or trade name
Flipkart’s seller blog adds that some categories, such as jewellery, food and medical devices, may need further approvals, and that brands not yet on the platform need brand approval.
The compliance declarations in Flipkart’s terms
The terms contain a set of declarations, each naming the laws a seller confirms it complies with. Those most relevant to regulated products:
| Declaration | Laws named | What it means in practice |
|---|---|---|
| BIS Certification | BIS Act, the Electronics and IT Goods (Requirements for Compulsory Registration) Order, all applicable Quality Control Orders, the ISI mark scheme, the Energy Conservation Act | A valid ISI licence or CRS registration for notified products, and a BEE label where mandatory |
| Products containing plastic | Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016 and the Environment (Protection) Act | Plastic EPR registration for brand owners and importers |
| WPC and TEC | Indian Wireless Telegraphy Act, WPC’s ETA policy, Indian Telegraph Act and rules, MTCTE | WPC ETA for radio products, MTCTE for notified telecom equipment |
| Hallmarking | BIS (Hallmarking) Regulations, 2018 | Gold jewellery bought through certified outlets and hallmarked |
| Drugs and cosmetics, medical devices | Cosmetics Rules, 2020; Medical Devices Rules, 2017 | CDSCO registration or licences; see medical device classification |
The terms also state that Flipkart may suspend or block a seller that does not produce documents such as “the BIS licence documents, the Brand Authorisation letter, or a Trademark registration proof” when required.
Which products need BIS on Flipkart
Flipkart’s declaration points to the BIS orders themselves, so the list is the legal one:
| Product group | BIS route | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| Mobiles, chargers, power banks, earbuds, smart watches, laptops, TVs, LED lights | CRS | Selling electronics online |
| Kettles, trimmers, vacuum cleaners and other appliances | ISI, IS 302 (Part 1) since 1 October 2026, or the appliance’s own order | Selling home appliances online |
| Pressure cookers, gas stoves, metal bottles, flasks, cookware | ISI | Selling kitchenware online |
| Toys | ISI | Selling toys online |
| Helmets, many footwear types, chairs, sanitary napkins, diapers | ISI | Marketplace compliance guide |
What the listing must show
Flipkart’s terms say listings must comply with Rule 6(10) of the Legal Metrology (Packaged Commodities) Rules, 2011, and that the seller is responsible for displaying “all the product’s label declarations” required under Rule 6(1). They specifically list:
- Manufacturer or packer name and complete address
- For imported goods, the importer’s name and details and the correct country of origin, in full
- The total price, with any break-up
- Guarantees or warranties
The BIS mark and licence number are part of the product’s label, so show them in the images as well. See what an e-commerce listing must show.
Food on Flipkart
For food, Flipkart’s terms require the seller to:
- Show its FSSAI licence or registration number on the platform.
- Make a clear picture of the principal display panel of pre-packed food available to customers.
- Deliver food with a shelf life of 30 percent or 45 days before expiry at the time of delivery, or as amended under law.
- Make all mandatory food information under the Food Safety and Standards Act available to customers before purchase.

Checklist before you list on Flipkart
- Classify each product against the BIS orders. See does my product need BIS?
- Keep a copy of each ISI licence or CRS registration, with your brand and model in its scope. Check it on Manak Online or crsbis.in.
- Keep your trademark certificate and brand authorisation letters, which Flipkart can also ask for.
- Show the full Legal Metrology declarations on the listing, including importer and country of origin for imports.
- For radio products, keep the WPC ETA certificate; for plastic packaging, electronics and batteries, sort EPR.
- For food, show the FSSAI number and plan stock so deliveries meet the shelf-life rule.
