LMPC Certificate is the document you receive after having registered with the Legal Metrology Department. Obtaining the Certificate is mandatory for all entities dealing in import, manufacturing, and packaging of pre-packaged commodities in India as a major compliance under the LMPC Act and Rules. LMPC laws regulate weights and measures used in trade, commerce, packaging and labeling. There are only two such laws to abide by - The Legal Metrology Rules of 2011 and the Legal Metrology Act of 2009. Besides, even State Governments have formulated their own Legal metrology governance rules and the LMPC registration helps abide by them as well. Wondering about the process?
