WPC Certificate Registration Delhi
ETA filing support for importers and manufacturers based in the Delhi-NCR region.
What is WPC Certificate Registration Delhi?
This service supports Delhi-NCR-based importers and manufacturers through the WPC Equipment Type Approval (ETA) process on the Saral Sanchar portal, including coordination with the regional wireless monitoring station for any physical verification steps.
The objective is the same as WPC's national mandate โ confirming a wireless device's frequency and power output stay within India's permitted spectrum before it reaches the market โ delivered with local, on-the-ground coordination for businesses based in or importing through the Delhi-NCR region.
While the ETA application itself is filed centrally through the Saral Sanchar portal regardless of where a business is based, Delhi-NCR's concentration of customs points, import warehouses, and the regional wireless monitoring station makes local liaison genuinely useful โ particularly for resolving document queries quickly or coordinating physical checks tied to a specific consignment location.

Our Process
Frequency Band Check

Documentation Compilation
RF test reports, IEC, and company documents are compiled for filing.
ETA Filing
The Equipment Type Approval application is filed on Saral Sanchar with test reports.
Regional Query Coordination
We liaise with the regional wireless monitoring station for any Delhi-NCR-specific verification or document requests.
Approval
On grant, the ETA certificate is issued for use in customs clearance.
Validity & Renewal
ETA certificates carry lifetime validity for the certified model/frequency configuration once granted, with no renewal cycle โ a fresh filing (and fee) is only triggered by a hardware or frequency change, not by the passage of time.
Penalty for Non-Compliance
Possessing a wireless transmitter without the required WPC authorisation is an offence under Section 6 of the Indian Wireless Telegraphy Act, 1933, punishable with imprisonment of up to three years or a fine of up to โน1,000, or both, alongside discretionary confiscation of the equipment by the court on conviction; for non-transmitter wireless apparatus held without authorisation, the fine is up to โน100 for a first offence and up to โน250 for a subsequent offence โ separate from denial of customs clearance for the shipment.
