Why Compliance?

Compliance Isn't a Hurdle — It's Your Edge

In government procurement, the right certifications don't just open doors — they decide who wins the contract. Here's what proper compliance does for your business.

Win More Tenders

Govt buyers favour certified vendors. Proper compliance instantly puts you ahead of 80% of competitors who skip it.

Save EMD & Fees

MSME/Udyam and Startup India recognition exempt you from Earnest Money Deposit and reduce tender fees — saving lakhs over time.

Stay 100% Legal

FSSAI for food, BIS for electrical, RoHS for electronics — being mandatory-compliant means no rejections, no penalties, no surprises.

ISO, Trademark and CE Marking signal quality to buyers — at home and overseas. Premium tenders go to premium-certified vendors.

FAQ

Compliance — Asked & Answered

Everything you wanted to know before getting certified.

Which compliance certificates do I really need to sell on GeM?+
At minimum: GST Registration. Then category-dependent: FSSAI (for food), BIS (for notified electrical/electronic products), BIFMA (furniture), RoHS (electronics). For govt tender preference, add MSME/Udyam, ISO, and Trademark. Our team audits your category and tells you exactly which certifications maximise your win rate.
Can BizHelp handle all 11 certifications in one go?+
Yes — we offer end-to-end paperwork, follow-up with authorities, and delivery of certificates for all 11 compliance services from a single point of contact. You don't have to deal with multiple consultants.
How long does each compliance take?+
Udyam Registration: 1 day. GST Registration: 5–7 working days. FSSAI: 7–15 days. ISO: 10–15 days. Trademark: filing in 2–3 days (full grant takes 12–18 months). BIS: 30–60 days. Timelines depend on authority response, but we expedite wherever possible.
Do MSME-registered sellers get an advantage on GeM tenders?+
Yes. MSEs (Micro & Small Enterprises with Udyam Registration) get 25% mandatory purchase preference in government procurement, plus EMD exemption and reduced tender fees on GeM and other government portals.
Is GST registration mandatory before GeM seller onboarding?+
Yes for most categories. GeM requires a valid GSTIN for tax-invoice raising and govt buyer transactions. If your turnover is below the GST threshold and you sell certain exempt categories, partial exemptions exist — we'll advise based on your products.
What is the difference between ISO 9001, 14001 and 27001?+
ISO 9001 — Quality Management. ISO 14001 — Environmental Management. ISO 27001 — Information Security. Most govt buyers look for ISO 9001 as a baseline trust signal. We recommend the right ISO standard based on your industry.
Will Trademark Registration help me become an OEM on GeM?+
Yes — to be recognised as an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) on GeM and authorise resellers, you must hold a registered trademark for your brand. Filing takes a couple of days; full registration takes 12–18 months but the application receipt is usable immediately.
How does BizHelp charge for compliance services?+
Pricing depends on the certification, your business size and turnaround speed. Most certifications are quoted as a single fee that includes consultation, paperwork, filing fees, and follow-up. WhatsApp or call us for an exact quote for your case.
