115F. [ Mass emission standards for bio-diesel (B100). [Inserted by Notification No. G.S.R. 412(E), dated 11.4.2016 (w.e.f. 2.6.1989).]- (1) The newly manufactured vehicles fitted with compression ignition engine compatible to run on diesel or mixture of bio-diesel up to hundred per cent bio-diesel (B100) (hereinafter referred to as flex-fuel bio-diesel vehicle), shall be type approved as per prevailing diesel emission norms.(2) The compatibility of vehicle to level of bio-diesel blend or B100 shall be specified by the vehicle manufacturer and the same shall be displayed on vehicle by putting a clearly visible sticker.(3) Test requirements for the type approval and extension for different classes of vehicles are specified in Table 1, Table 2 and Table 3 below, respectively:Table 1Test requirements for type approval and extension for four wheeled vehicles with Gross Vehicle Weight less than or equal to 3,500 kilogramme{|

1. Gaseous pollutants (type I test) On both diesel and B100 fuel
2. Free acceleration smoke ( type II Test) On both diesel and B100 fuel
3. Durability (Type V), if opted for instead of fixedDeterioration Factor (DF) Only on diesel fuel
4. On-board diagnostics (India OBD II) On both diesel and B100 fuel
