This document is an amendment by Ministry of Road Transport & Highways, Government of India in Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989, notifying insertion of rules for heavy goods vehicle and a heavy passenger motor vehicle.

This Indian Standard (Part 21/Sec 2) which is identical with IEC 61851-21-2: 2018 ‘Electric vehicle conductive charging system — Part 21-2: Electric vehicle requirements for conductive connection to an AC/DC supply- EMC requirements for off-board electric vehicle charging systems’ issued by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Electrotechnology in Mobility Sectional Committee and approval of the Electrotechnical Division Council.

This standard (Part 3) applies to the representation of the curve as a function of motor speed and the power at full load indicated by the vehicle/motor manufacturer for motors of electric drive trains and the maximum 30 min power of electric drive trains intended for the propulsion for L, M and N categories of electric power train vehicles.

This standard (Part 2) specifies the method for measurement of a range expressed, in km for L, M and N categories of electric power train vehicles.

This standard (Part 1) specifies the method for measurement of electrical energy consumption expressed, in Wh/ km for L, M and N categories of electric power train vehicles.

This Indian Standard (Part 4) which is identical with ISO 15118-4: 2018 ‘Road vehicles — Vehicle to grid communication interface — Part 4: Network and application protocol conformance test’ issued by the International Organization for Standardization(ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Electrotechnology in Mobility Sectional Committee and approval of the Electrotechnical Division Council.

This test suite specification (TSS) provides organizations that are testing dc quick chargers for use with electric vehicles performance with a suite of unambiguous test plans. This TSS further provides requirements for equipment used for the testing of dc quick chargers, requirements for the measurements, observations and/or document evidence that are to be recorded in a final test report. Test plans and requirements in this TSS are more specific than requirements of the standard for dc quick charger performance.

This Indian Standard (Part 21/Sec 1) which is identical with IEC 61851-21-1: 2017 ‘Electric vehicle conductive charging system — Part 21-1: Electric vehicle on-board charger EMC requirements for conductive connection to an AC/DC supply’ issued by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Electrotechnology in Mobility Sectional Committee and approval of the Electrotechnical Division Council.

This amendment document to the Model Building Bye-laws, 2016 was published by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MOHUA) in February 2019.

The Ministry of Road Transport & Highways, Government of India amended the Central Motor Vehicles Rules, 1989 with the submission of rules on Retro-fitment of a hybrid electric system or electric kit to Motor Vehicles, published on 1st March, 2019
