Fuel efficiency certification establishes mandatory test standards and extends certificate validity for qualifying motor cars under excise rules. Certification of fuel-efficient motor cars over 1000 cc requires a fuel efficiency certificate issued by a Deputy Secretary-level officer based on tests by designated agencies. Tests must meet specified minimum consumption thresholds by engine-capacity band, use petrol below a prescribed octane level, be conducted with prescribed payloads, run at a steady speed on a level test track with multiple runs in both directions, have results corrected to sea level and to a standard ambient temperature, and be based on the lower result from two randomly selected production vehicles.
