The Rules establish, among other items, new health warnings to cover 85% of the front and back of tobacco product packaging. These Rules were to have gone into effect on April 1, 2015, but the MOHFW has issued a subsequent notification establishing April 1, 2016 as the implementation date of the new warnings. The uploaded files contain the notification in both Hindi and English.
To the best of our knowledge, all laws provided here are in effect as of December 5, 2023 unless otherwise noted.
