What is Legal Metrology Registration?

Legal Metrology Registration is mandatory under the Legal Metrology Act, 2009, for anyone who manufactures, imports, or packs pre-packaged commodities. It ensures that weights and measures used in trade are accurate and that packaged goods display mandatory declarations to protect consumer rights.
