Agricultural chemicals and formulations are allowed to be imported into India without restrictions, provided the chemicals have been registered with the Central Insecticides Board/Department of Plant Protection  under the Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India, and is not an item prohibited for import under the Central Insecticides Act of 1968
The agricultural chemicals industry is also subject to eco-labeling. The toxic nature of many agricultural chemicals subjects them to several controls on stocking and obtaining sales licenses. These products attract high import duties. Indian Industries  do not have much advantage in the export market due to domination by Multinationals.
