fitted with SI engines, as per CMVR 115(2), subject to following conditions :
i.
For
the instruments already supplied in the field, the supplier shall calibrate HC
channel along with CO channel and issue a compliance certificate based on which
the Transport Authorities concerned will grant extension of validity to the
respective PUC Test Centre for the purpose of PUC testing as per revised test
procedure.
ii.
The
name of the model will be included by ARAI in the approved list of PUC
Equipment only on compliance to (i) above by the supplier.
iii.
The
supplier shall abide by the Code of Practice attached herewith as
Annexure-A. The supplier has already
submitted an affidavit to this effect.
iv.
