What is India WPC certification?

Wireless products entering India need to obtain WPC certification. The Wireless Planning & Coordination Wing, established in 1952, is India's national broadcasting agency. Its main tasks are issuing radio licenses, allocating and monitoring spectrum, and it is under the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology. Wireless products need to obtain WPC certification before entering the Indian market. India's frequency bands are divided into free open and not yet open categories. For free open bands, such devices only need to apply for an ETA (Equipment Type Approval) certificate (applicable to local area network products such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, SUB-1G, and accepts EU EN standard reports for conversion); for other bands that are not free open, a License must be applied for. Both ETA and License holders must be locally registered companies.
