Question

Assertion (A): It is mandatory for producers of all goods to obtain ISI certification before selling in the market.
Reason (R): ISI and Agmark certification ensures quality, but for most products it is not compulsory — only for goods affecting health and safety or products of mass consumption.

Accepted Answer

## Model Answer **Answer: C** A is false because ISI certification is NOT mandatory for all producers. R is true — certification is compulsory only for goods affecting health, safety, or mass consumption like LPG cylinders, cement, and packaged drinking water. ## Explanation The textbook clearly states: "it is not compulsory for all the producers to follow standards. However, for some products that affect health and safety... it is mandatory." So the Assertion is false, and the Reason correctly explains the actual rule. Option C is correct.
