Committee

Quality Council of India (QCI):-

Post liberalization, India embarked on a process of creating the quality infrastructure in the country which can help Indian products and services easy access to foreign markets in the new order under WTO regime.
In the process, an organization was sought to be established which would function as the National Accreditation body (NAB).
QCI thus, came to be organized as an independent autonomous body that worked towards assuring quality standards across all spheres of economic and social activities.
It got established under the Societies Registration Act in 1997 to provide accreditation services in various sectors for product, services and persons.
Functioning of QCI

The Council is independent and works under the directions of its Governing Body (GB) having equal representation of government, industry and industry associations.
It does not get funded by the government and is a self-sustaining non-profit organization with its own Memorandum of Association (MOA) and Rules.
