Minutes of 1st meeting of BIS TED27 P8 panel on Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles
The 1st meeting of BIS TED27 P8 panel on hydrogen fuel cell vehicle held virtually on 10 th
December’2021 (Friday) under panel convenorship of Mr. P S Gowrishankar (GM & Head-
Regulations & IB, TATA Motors Ltd, ERC, Pune).
Participants: BIS, ARAI, TML, MSIL, M&M, TKM, ACMA, BOSCH, KPIT, ERIC, RBIN,
TED 27 P8 members
1. Panel convenor welcomed all the participants and gave an overview of Hydrogen as
automotive fuel in India. He informed that Hydrogen as automotive fuel is already notified
vide GSR 889(E) dated 16th Sep’2016 followed by notification of Hydrogen Fuel Cell
standard vide GSR 579(E) dated 23rd Sep’2020. He mentioned that these notifications will
help India to realise hydrogen economy and would enable OEMs to obtain domestic type
approval certificate for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
2. Giving the background of panel, convenor informed that based on suggestions from Electric
and Hybrid vehicle section committee, BIS TED27 P8 panel has been constituted with
objective to formulate Indian Standard on hydrogen fuel cell vehicle.
3. He gave detailed presentation on hydrogen fuel cell vehicle technology / aggregates. He

informed that Automotive Industry Standard and Bureau of Indian Standard are drafted based
on study, review and comparison of global standards and includes best safety practices being
followed in the world. He further apprised members on overall content of hydrogen fuel cell
standard.
4. It was informed that based on suggestions from BIS sectional committee, the draft Indian
Standard on hydrogen fuel cell vehicle is already prepared and wide circulated for members
review and committee. Convenor requested members to go through the draft standard and
provide comments before 15th Jan’2022 for further discussions, deliberations and suitable
incorporation in the standard.
5. Mr. Parag Mengaji, ARAI suggested that as AISC panel on hydrogen fuel cell vehicle has
already done extensive work in formulation of AIS-157 standard, the draft Indian Standard
can be aligned with notified AIS standard. Panel convenor concurred with the proposal and
informed that draft Indian standard is formulated based on AIS-157 standard only and
requisite changes/updates are incorporated based on the overall requirements.
6. Mr. Uday Harite (ACMA), Mr. Sanjay Khatri (Bosch) and Mr. Mohan (ERCI) confirmed that
they will study and review the draft Indian standard and will provide their comments
/suggestions before 15th Jan’2022.
7. Mr. Tejas and Mr. Kiran Dakle from KPIT Technologies Ltd. highlighted certain challenges
47
pertaining to technology demonstration and serial production of hydrogen fuel cell vehicle
along with acceptance of International Standards. Convenor informed that suggestions made
by KPIT in previous occasions are already incorporated in the draft standard and provision
of alternate standards are appropriately covered. He also informed that hydrogen fuel cell
vehicles can be imported through GSR 870(E) based on compliance to EEC directives, ECE
regulations and Japanese standards. Convenor emphasized that comments should be backed
with detailed technical justification and should have acceptance and convergence from other
members/stakeholders including certification agencies.
8. Mr. Gaurav Jayaswal (BIS secretariat) suggested that based on approval from TED-27
sectional committee, the draft Indian Standard will be circulated as P-Draft for members’
comments. He suggested that consolidated comments received from Ashok Leyland and other
members can be discussed and deliberated in next panel meeting for suitable consideration
and incorporation.
9. Panel convenor thanked all members for their active participation and requested members to
give their valuable comments and suggestions to make the IS under preparation to make it
robust and comprehensive. He suggested secretariat to apprise TED-27 chair on progress
made by P8 panel during forthcoming sectional committee meeting scheduled on 21 st
Decmber’2021.
10. Meeting ended with vote of thanks to the chair.
