Outline of presentation • Institutional structure • Automotive Industry Standards Committee • Central Motor Vehicles Rules-Technical Standing Committee (CMVR-TSC) • Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) • Standing Committee on Implementation of Emission Legislation (SCOE) • Type Approval and Conformity Of Production • In –use vehicles

  3. Institutional Framework for Automotive Regulations Ministry of Shipping, Road Transport & Highways (Motor Vehicles Act & Central Motor Vehicles Rules) Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas Ministry of Environment & Forests Bureau of Indian Standards (Transport Divisional Counci)l Emission Safety Standing Committee on Implementation of Emission Legislation Chairman- Joint Secretary, MoSRT&H Members: Tests Agencies, SIAM, TMA, MoP&NG, MoHI&PE, MoEF & Others CMVR-Technical Standing Committee Chairman- Joint Secretary, MoSRT&H Members: Test Agencies, SIAM, ACMA, TMA, MoHI&PE, BIS & Others Automotive Industry Standards Committee Chairman- S R Marathe, Director, ARAI 3

  4. Institutional structure for automotive regulations • Ministry of Shipping, Road Transport & Highways is the nodal ministry for motor vehicle regulations in India • Motor Vehicle Act, 1988 and Central Motor Vehicle Rules (CMVR), 1989, are principal instruments governing motor vehicles in the country • Motor Vehicle Act can be amended by Parliament (Union Legislature) and CMVR by the concerned Ministry through G.S.R (General Statutory Rules ) and S.O ( Statutory Order ) • Safety standards and emission norms are recommended for introduction by Central Motor Vehicles Rules-Technical Standing Committee (CMVR-TSC) and Standing Committee on Implementation of Emission Legislation (SCOE) • Safety standards are prepared by Automotive Industry Standards Committee and Bureau of Indian Standards

  5. Automotive Industry Standards Committee (AISC) • AISC – a committee set up by MoSRT&H • Standards in AISC are prepared by separate Panel comprising of representatives of various stakeholder associations. • AISC considers various aspects like the status of technology, time frame required for implementation, necessity of a particular regulation in relation to the safety and emission issues, etc. • Finalised draft hosted on AISC secretariat website for wide circulation • Standards prepared by AISC are submitted to CMVR-TSC for approval

  6. Composition of Automotive Industry Standards Committee • Director, ARAI – Chairman • Representative from Deptt. of Heavy Industry • Representative from Deptt. of IPP • Representative from Deptt. of RT&H • Representative from Bureau of Indian Standards • Representative from VRDE • 3 Representatives from SIAM • 2 Representatives from ACMA • Representative from ARAI – Member Secretary

  7. Central Motor Vehicle Rule- Technical Standing Committee (CMVR-TSC) • Joint Secretary, MoSRT&H is Chairman, CMVR-TSC • CMVR-TSC comprises representatives • Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises • Bureau of Indian Standard (BIS) • Automotive Component Manufacturers Association of India (ACMA) • Select State Governments • Testing agencies • SIAM • User groups – invitees

  8. Central Motor Vehicle Rule- Technical Standing Committee (CMVR-TSC) • CMVR-TSC adopts finalised standards and recommends implementations • Standards notified through General Statutory Rule/Statutory Order • Indian standards issued by Bureau of Indian standards (BIS) also notified under CMVR • General Statutory Rules (GSR) – first draft notification issued- : 45-60 days given for comments • Approval of the Secretary (MOSRTH) and the Minister • Final notification is issued

  9. Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) • Two Committees for automotive related standards • Transport Engineering Division (TED) • Civil Engineering Division (CED) • 17 Sectional Committees under TED Council • About 8 Sectional Committees for automotive standards

  10. Standing Committee on Implementation of Emission Legislation (SCOE) • Joint Secretary, MoSRT&H is Chairman, SCOE • SCOE comprises of representatives of : • Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF) • Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas (MoP&NG) • Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises (MoHI&PE) • Testing Agencies • SIAM

  11. Standing Committee on Implementation of Emission Legislation (SCOE) • Currently dual norms – one set of norms for 11 major cities and another for rest of the country- necessitated on account of pollution levels and availability of requisite fuel • Emission norms issued through gazette notification- draft notification issued first and thereafter final notification is issued after due consideration of comments received, approval of the Secretary (MOSRTH) and the Minister.

  12. Type Approval Procedure in India • Every manufacturer of motor vehicles other than trailers and semi-trailers submit the prototype of the vehicle to be manufactured for test by a test agency under Rule 126 of Central Motor vehicles Rules 1989 for granting a certificate by that agency as to the compliance of provisions of the Act and Rules. This is mandatory since 1.4.1991.

  13. Type Approval Procedure in India • Six Testing agencies currently authorised • Automotive Research Association Of India, Pune, • Vehicle Research & Development Establishment, Ahmednagar, • Central Farm Machinery Testing and Training Institute, Budni, • Indian Institute of Petroleum, Dehradun, • Central Institute of Road Transport, Pune and • International centre for Automotive Technology, Manesar • The process of the type approval generally takes about three months. • The same procedure is applicable to imported vehicles and components also.

  14. Conformity Of Production(COP) for emission • The test agency randomly selects a vehicle at specified periodicity from the factory. • Running in, and servicing prescribed in the manual are carried out on this vehicle under the supervision of the test agency. • Emission tests (mass emission and tail pipe emission) are carried out by the test agency. • COP provisions provide for extended trials and recall in the case of failure • Presently COP procedure is limited to only emissions We plan to introduce for components in future 2~3 years

  15. In –Use vehicles • All in-use vehicles have to undergo a mandatory Pollution check once in six months • All transport vehicles have to undergo an annual fitness check
