    This document outlines general requirements and exceptions for boiler registration and certification under Indian regulations. It states that boilers must meet material, design, and construction standards to be registered unless an exception applies. Exceptions include when alternative materials are commonly used internationally and deemed suitable, or when constructional features are not inferior in strength to regulations. It also prohibits Bessemer process steel or cast/malleable iron for pressure parts, and allows designs/materials conforming to international codes like ASME and BS if no specific Indian regulation exists.
