Overview
Most products sold in India today need some form of test evidence: a BIS registration, an ISI licence, a BEE star label, a WPC approval, or simply a test report that a buyer asks for before placing an order. The testing itself is done by laboratories. What often goes wrong is everything around it: the wrong standard is quoted, the wrong samples are sent, a test is missed or a report has an error that the regulator spots weeks later.
Aaditech’s testing and certification support is designed to remove that friction. We work out precisely what your product must be tested for, coordinate the testing at a suitable NABL-accredited or BIS-recognised laboratory, review the reports and support you through the certification or approval that the reports are meant for.
Note: Aaditech is not a NABL-accredited laboratory and does not issue test reports itself. Testing is carried out by independent accredited or recognised laboratories. Our role is planning, coordination, technical review and certification support.

Who it’s for
- Indian manufacturers bringing a new product to market or extending a licence to new models.
- Foreign manufacturers and importers who need Indian test reports and do not have a local technical team.
- Traders and brand owners sourcing products from contract manufacturers.
- Buyers and users who want independent test evidence on a product before they commit to it.
Our process
- Requirement study. We review the product, its intended market and its regulatory status, and identify the applicable standards and schemes.
- Test plan. We list the tests, the number of samples and the documents needed, and flag tests that commonly cause failures for that product type.
- Laboratory selection. We identify a laboratory whose accreditation or BIS recognition covers the required tests, and coordinate quotations and scheduling.
- Sample and document preparation. We check the samples, labels and technical documents before they are sent, so the lab can start without queries.
- Report review. We review the test report for completeness and accuracy, and resolve any errors with the laboratory before you use it.
- Certification support. We help you submit the reports to the relevant authority, such as BIS, BEE or WPC, and respond to any technical queries.
Standards & references
