On July 9, 2026, the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers (Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals, DCPC) published an amendment to the n-Butyl Acrylate (Quality Control) Order, 2021.
Back in April 2026, DCPC has announced to temporarily waive the requirement for n-Butyl Acrylate to comply with Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) specifications. The QCOs implementation are therefore suspended from April 10,2026 to July 10, 2026.
The published order further delays the effective date of the Quality Control Order for n-Butyl Acrylate from July 10, 2026, to July 31, 2026. This suspension of the order's operation was implemented due to global exigencies and supply chain disruptions, ensuring the continued availability of n-Butyl Acrylate in the market.
Goods or articles | Indian Standards | Effective Date |

The QCOs do not apply to chemicals intended for export only. The chemical products conforming to the requirements of the Orders shall bear the Standard Mark under the Grant of License by the Bureau of Indian Standards. Any person who contravenes the provisions of the Orders shall be punished according to the Bureau of Indian Standards Act (BIS Act), 2016.
