The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) organised an awareness programme on hallmarking on Saturday at Avadi to create awareness for jewellers in Tiruvallur district.

S.D. Dayanand, Senior Director and Head, BIS Chennai Branch Office, said though Tiruvallur is a non-mandatory district under hallmarking regulations, the programme was organised to enhance awareness among jewellers on BIS Hallmarking standards and the digital services offered by BIS for voluntary compliance. Early adoption of hallmarking standards would give jewellers in the district a competitive advantage, said a press release.
