# WPC ETA & MTCTE Certification Course (India)

Get wireless products approved in India: WPC ETA certification, MTCTE (TEC) testing, de-licensed bands, the Saral Sanchar portal and a dual-approval strategy.

India's wireless regulatory landscape runs on two parallel approval schemes that every electronics manufacturer must understand before importing or selling in the Indian market. WPC Equipment Type Approval, issued by the Wireless Planning and Coordination Wing of the Department of Telecommunications, is mandatory for any product operating in India's de-licensed frequency bands — Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, RFID, NFC, UWB, and dozens of other short-range technologies. MTCTE — Mandatory Testing and Certification of Telecom Equipment — is TEC's parallel scheme for routers, base stations, customer premises equipment, and network security products. Many products need both. This course teaches the complete India wireless type approval process for electronics engineers and hardware companies: how India's frequency landscape works, which products fall under WPC ETA versus MTCTE, how to navigate the Saral Sanchar portal and the MTCTE portal, how to structure your test programme for Indian band requirements, how to appoint and work with an Authorised Indian Representative, and how to manage dual-approval products efficiently from a single compliance programme. The Telecommunications Act 2023, the NFAP 2025 frequency plan, MTCTE Phase VI (effective August 2025), and the practical steps for recovering from common application failures are all covered with worked examples throughout. Built on Krono's regulatory database — the same data that powers our free roadmap tool for 213 product types across CE/EU, UK, US, and India markets. This course contains the use of artificial intelligence for asthetic purposes.
