Automotive Indian Standard (AIS-129)

One important rule created in India for the automobile sector is the Automotive Indian Standard (AIS-129). Its main objective is to regulate the recoverability, recyclability, and material compliance of automobiles made and marketed in India.

Like the EU's ELV Directive, AIS-129 requires automakers to disclose the materials that make up their cars and guarantees that some dangerous compounds are kept to a minimum. Additionally, it establishes criteria for evaluating a vehicle's capability for recovery and recycling at the end of its life, promoting more environmentally friendly waste management and product design within the Indian auto industry.
