Frequently asked
Who are the largest cable manufacturers in India?
India's largest BIS-licensed cable and wire manufacturers by revenue and market share include Polycab India Limited (NSE/BSE: POLYCAB), Havells India Limited (HAVELLS), KEI Industries Limited (KEI), Finolex Cables Limited (FINCABLES), and RR Kabel Limited (RRKABEL). All five are publicly listed and hold active BIS CM/L licences for IS 694:2010 PVC house wire. The full alphabetical directory of 27 verified manufacturers is below.
What is a BIS CM/L licence and why does it matter?
BIS CM/L (Certification Marks Licence) is the Bureau of Indian Standards licence number issued to a manufacturer authorising use of the ISI mark on cables conforming to a specific Indian Standard. The format is 'CM/L' followed by 10 digits. Verification is via bis.gov.in or manakonline.in. NBC 2016 and most state Electrical Inspectorates require ISI-marked cable for any building installation; CM/L is the on-jacket proof that the cable was made by a licensed manufacturer.
How can I verify a cable manufacturer's BIS licence?
Visit https://www.manakonline.in/MANAK/licenseDetailsAction and enter either the company's name or its CM/L number. The query returns: licence status (active/lapsed), Indian Standard covered, factory location and validity dates. Cross-check the result against the CM/L number printed on your cable's outer jacket — they must match exactly. For specifications above IS 694:2010 (e.g. IS 17048:2018 for HFFR, IS 1554 for armoured power, IS 7098 for XLPE), the manufacturer needs a separate licence per standard.
Which Indian Standards do cable manufacturers comply with?
The most common are IS 694:2010 (PVC building wire up to 1.1 kV), IS 17048:2018 (Halogen-Free Flame Retardant), IS 1554 Part 1 (PVC armoured up to 1.1 kV), IS 1554 Part 2 (HOFR sheathed), IS 7098 Part 1 (XLPE up to 1.1 kV), IS 7098 Part 2 (HT XLPE 3.3-33 kV), IS 9968 (lift travelling cable), IS 9857 (welding cable), IS 8130 (conductor classes 1-6) and IS 3961 (current carrying capacity). NBC 2016 mandates which IS applies to which building category.
How do I choose between Polycab, Havells, KEI, Finolex, RR Kabel and National Cables?
All six are BIS-licensed under IS 694:2010 with active CM/L numbers, ISO 9001 certified, and ISI marked. The cable spec — voltage rating, conductor purity (≥99.97% ETP copper), size range — is functionally equivalent. Differences come down to (a) flame-grade ladder coverage (FR, FR-LSH, HRFR, HR-FR-LSH, HFFR), (b) per-metre price, (c) regional dealer availability, and (d) signature product lines.
