In today’s competitive product market, packaging is more than just aesthetics — it's a legal responsibility. If you are a manufacturer, importer, or seller of pre-packaged commodities, LMPC registration is not optional. It’s mandatory under the Legal Metrology (Packaged Commodities) Rules.
At VS IPR & LEGAL ADVISORS LLP, located in Dahisar East, Mumbai, we specialize in providing LMPC registration services and other legal services in Mumbai, Maharashtra, to ensure your business runs smoothly and stays compliant.
What Is LMPC Registration and Why Do You Need It?
LMPC, short for Legal Metrology Packaged Commodities registration, is a regulatory requirement under the Legal Metrology Act. It is designed to ensure that packaged goods sold in India meet specific labeling, weight, and measurement standards.
So, if you're dealing in shoes, clothes, cosmetics, packaged food, gadgets, or any other item sold in pre-packed form — and your customer is not physically present during the sale (think online retail or deliveries) — you need LMPC registration.
Who Must Get LMPC Registration?
At VS IPR & LEGAL ADVISORS LLP, we work with a range of clients who require LMPC compliance, including:
Manufacturers producing goods for consumer use
Importers bringing in packaged items from abroad
E-commerce businesses selling via online platforms
Retailers and wholesalers who distribute pre-packed items
Private label owners selling rebranded products
If your business handles consumer-facing packaged commodities, LMPC registration builds trust, ensures compliance, and protects you from heavy fines.
Businesses Exempt from LMPC Compliance
Not every business falls under LMPC rules. The law makes exceptions for:
Bulk packages over 25 kg or 25 liters
Cement, fertilizers, and agri-items above 50 kg
Industrial-use packaging
Micro packages under 10 grams or 10 milliliters
Unpackaged goods like fresh vegetables or fish
Service providers like restaurants, salons, or tailors
Exporters selling only outside India
If you're unsure whether your product qualifies, our legal team at VS IPR & LEGAL ADVISORS LLP in Dahisar East will review your business and guide you accordingly.
What Happens If You Skip LMPC Registration?
Failing to comply with Legal Metrology laws can bring serious consequences:
Fines starting at ₹25,000 and up to ₹1 lakh or more
Loss of consumer trust and damaged brand reputation
Legal notices, product seizures, and halted business operations
Don't take chances with your reputation. Our legal experts in Mumbai, Maharashtra will ensure you're fully covered.
What Must Be Included on Your Packaging?
LMPC is not just about registration — your product labels must also include key information such as:
Name and address of the manufacturer or importer
Net quantity of the product
Generic name or description
MRP (Maximum Retail Price)
Manufacturing and expiry dates
Customer care contact details
Batch or lot number
Country of origin for imported goods
Component details (for kits or combo packs)
Nutritional information, where applicable
