Water Testing

NABL-accredited water quality testing for FSSAI licence, RERA compliance, industrial use, and potability certification — chemical and microbiological analysis.

5.0 / 5.0

Overview

Water Testing by a NABL (National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories) accredited laboratory determines the physical, chemical, and microbiological quality of water. Water test reports are mandatory for several regulatory purposes: FSSAI State and Central Licence applications require a water test report confirming potability for food processing; RERA registrations for housing projects require water quality certification; industrial factories must test water for environmental compliance; and drilling of new borewells requires water quality reports.

Standard potability tests check for: pH, turbidity, total dissolved solids (TDS), hardness, total coliform, E. coli, arsenic, fluoride, nitrate, heavy metals (lead, cadmium, mercury), and pesticide residues as per BIS IS:10500 (Drinking Water Standard). MFiling coordinates with NABL-accredited laboratories, arranges sample collection, and delivers test reports within 7–14 working days.

Testing fee depends on the number of parameters tested. MFiling professional charges: from Rs.1,999 (inclusive of coordination and report delivery).

Sample Collection Coordination (Day 1–3)

MFiling arranges NABL lab sample collection team to visit premises and collect water samples.

NABL Laboratory Analysis (Day 3–10)

Accredited lab conducts chemical, physical, and microbiological analysis as per BIS IS:10500.

Test Report Issued (Day 7–14)

NABL-stamped and signed test report issued — valid for 30 days for FSSAI applications.

Submit to Regulatory Authority (Same day as filing)

MFiling includes the water test report as part of FSSAI, RERA, or other regulatory applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is a NABL water test report valid for FSSAI applications?
FSSAI requires the water test report to be from a NABL-accredited laboratory and not more than 30 days old at the time of licence application. MFiling coordinates water testing and FSSAI filing together to ensure the report is within the validity window. If the FSSAI application is delayed, a fresh water test report may be required.
How many water samples need to be submitted for FSSAI licence testing?
FSSAI requires one representative sample from each primary water source used in food processing. For facilities with multiple sources (municipal supply and borewell), a sample from each source is required. Samples must be collected by the NABL lab representative in sterilised bottles. The test report is valid for 30 days from the collection date for FSSAI application purposes.
