Buyer Due Diligence
APEDA, FSSAI & IEC Verified Exporter from India
If you are evaluating Indian suppliers, verify credentials first. ShankuChakra publishes its key registrations so buyers can check facts directly before moving into quotations, sampling and shipment planning.
What the Credentials Actually Prove
Different Registrations Answer Different Risk Questions
IEC (Import Export Code)
Confirms the business is authorised to conduct import-export transactions from India. ShankuChakra has held IEC since 2011.
APEDA RCMC
Confirms registration-cum-membership for scheduled agricultural export categories under APEDA's framework. It is a trade-registration proof, not a lot-level quality test.
FSSAI
Confirms operation under India's food-safety compliance framework where applicable to food products.
How Buyers Should Verify
4-Step Pre-Quote Verification Checklist
- Ask for the exact registration/licence numbers used on the latest shipment documents.
- Independently verify each number on the official government portal before placing an order.
- Map each registration to your exact product category and destination requirement instead of assuming blanket coverage.
- Still confirm product specification sheets and sample quality separately — registrations are compliance signals, not product guarantees.
