Amendments are issued to standards as the need arises on the, basis of comments. Standards are also reviewed
periodically; a standard along with amendments is reaffirmed when such review indicates tIi+ no changes are
needed; if the review indicates that changes are needed, it is taken up for revision. Users of Indian Standards
