architectural glass, glazing products and its associated materials to support and facilitate the

implementation of National Building code (NBC) and Codes of Practices and product Standards

(set by Bureau of Indian Standards BIS, Government of India) as well as Energy Conservation

Building Code (ECBC) (set by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) under the ministry of

Power, Government of India) and such other testing and certification programs for building

envelope products towards the safe, sustainable, energy efficient building envelope design,

products and services.Validity Period of MoU is 5 years from the date of its

signing/implementation.

Mutual Confidentiality Agreement

CSIR-CGCRI signed a Mutual Confidentiality Agreement on August 03, 2016, with EATON Technologies

Pvt Ltd, Pune, to establish or further business relationship between the parties necessitating disclosure to each

other certain sensitive information relating to Additive manufacturing for research and development.

MOU for development of Instrumented Smart Pantograph

CSIR-CGCRI signed a MOU for development of Instrumented Smart Pantograph on January 24, 2017 with
