What is the Bharat Stage (BS) emission standard applicable for petrol and diesel vehicle in India as of 2023 ?
Answer: C
The standard in force in 2023 is BS - VI.
India moved directly from Bharat Stage IV to Bharat Stage VI for all new vehicles from 1 April 2020, skipping BS-V to bring its standards in line with Euro 6 sooner. BS-VI cut the permitted NOx from diesel cars sharply and required fuel with no more than 10 ppm sulphur. From April 2023, the second phase of BS-VI added real driving emission checks and on-board diagnostics.
BS-IV was the previous standard, applicable until March 2020. BS-V was never implemented. BS-VII has not been notified.
