Our Credentials. Our Commitment to Transparency.

KASHMIRCART is the trading name of KASHMIR CART PRIVATE LIMITED, a family-run Kashmiri farm-to-home business from Pampore and Tral. We publish our company registration, MSME registration, food-business licence and management-system certifications here so that anyone — a customer, a wholesale partner or a regulator — can check who they are dealing with, and understand exactly what each credential does and does not mean.

Every reference number on this page is reproduced as it appears on the original document. None of them is presented as a government endorsement of any product.

Credentials overview

Three kinds of paper — kept carefully apart.

A business registration, a regulatory licence and a management-system certification are different things with different legal weight. We group them separately so no one reads more into a number than it actually says.

Business registrations

Who we are, legally

Statutory registrations that identify the company and its MSME status. They confirm the entity exists and is registered — nothing about product quality.

Regulatory licences

What we are permitted to do

Licences required by law to carry on a regulated activity — in our case, operating as a food business in India under the FSSAI framework.

01 · Business registrations

Company registration

KASHMIRCART is operated by KASHMIR CART PRIVATE LIMITED, a private limited company incorporated in 2013 and registered with the Registrar of Companies, Jammu & Kashmir, under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India.

What the CIN means

The Corporate Identity Number is a 21-character code assigned at incorporation. It confirms that the company is a legally registered entity with statutory filing obligations. Reading our CIN: U = unlisted, 74994 = industry class, JK = registered in Jammu & Kashmir, 2013 = year of incorporation, PTC = private limited company.

What Udyam means

Udyam Registration is the Government of India's registration for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, administered by the Ministry of MSME. It classifies the enterprise by investment and turnover and makes it eligible for MSME schemes. It is an enterprise registration, not a quality or product certification.

Plainly put: a CIN proves the company exists; Udyam proves it is a registered MSME. Neither says anything about how a product was grown, tested or packed.

Verify it yourself: search the CIN on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs portal (MCA Services → Master Data → View Company/LLP Master Data), and check the Udyam number on the official Udyam Registration portal (Verify Udyam Registration Number).

02 · Regulatory licences

Food safety licensing (FSSAI)

Because KASHMIRCART packs and sells food products — saffron, nuts and dry fruits, honey, kahwa, spices and similar — it is a food business operator under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. Food business operators in India must be registered or licensed with the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) before trading.

What the licence does

  • Permits the business to lawfully manufacture, pack, store, distribute or sell food.
  • Places the business under FSSAI's regulatory framework — hygiene, labelling, record-keeping and inspection obligations.
  • Requires the 14-digit licence number to be displayed on food labels and premises.

What it does not do

  • It does not certify any individual product as "pure" or "premium".
  • It does not mean every product or batch has been laboratory tested.
  • It is not an award, grade or quality mark.
Where product testing is mentioned on kashmircart.in — for example saffron batches checked for crocin, picrocrocin and safranal, or shilajit screened for heavy metals — that statement belongs to that specific product page and batch, not to this licence.

Verify it yourself: FSSAI licences can be looked up on the official FoSCoS portal of FSSAI (FBO Search / licence search by number).

03 · Management-system certification

ISO 9001:2015 — Quality Management System

ISO 9001:2015 is the international standard for quality management systems published by the International Organization for Standardization. An organisation certified to ISO 9001:2015 has had its management processes — how it documents procedures, handles customer requirements, controls suppliers, addresses non-conformities and pursues continual improvement — audited against the standard by a certification body.

What it tells you

  • The business has defined, documented and audited processes for quality.
  • There is a system for handling customer complaints and corrective action.
  • Suppliers, records and traceability are managed under a formal framework.

What it does not tell you

  • It is not a product certification and does not grade or test any product.
  • It is not equivalent to an individual product laboratory report.
  • It is not a government endorsement — certification bodies are independent organisations.
Verification: the certificate number below is the one KASHMIRCART publishes and has verified against the issuing body's register. Certification body name, scope statement, issue and expiry dates are shown only once confirmed against the original certificate; a copy of the certificate can be requested from our team for legitimate business or regulatory purposes.

03 · Programme certification

MSME Sustainable (ZED) Certification

ZED stands for Zero Defect, Zero Effect. The MSME Sustainable (ZED) Certification Scheme is run by the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, Government of India, and encourages MSMEs to adopt quality, productivity, safety and environmental practices. Enterprises are assessed against a set of parameters and may be certified at Bronze, Silver or Gold level.

Nature of the credential

ZED is a programme certification of the enterprise's practices under a government scheme. It is distinct from ISO 9001:2015 (an international management-system standard audited by an independent certification body) and from Udyam (a plain registration).

What we state — and don't

We display only the certificate reference as it appears on the document. The certification level and scope are those printed on the original ZED certificate; we do not claim a higher level than has been granted, and we do not present ZED as a product-quality mark.

Document policy: we never create replacement certificate graphics. Where the original certificate or an official document link is published, it is shown unaltered; otherwise, the details are given as text.

About the scheme: official information is published on the MSME Sustainable (ZED) Certification portal.

Intellectual property

Trademark status — application in process

A trademark application for the name KASHMIRCART has been filed with the Trade Marks Registry, Office of the Controller General of Patents, Designs and Trade Marks, India. The application is currently processing. Registration has not been granted.

What this means

  • KASHMIRCART uses its name in trade and has sought statutory protection for it.
  • Until the Registry grants registration, no registered-trademark rights are claimed.
  • You will not see the ® symbol on KASHMIRCART materials. Where ™ appears, it denotes use in trade only.

What we will update

  • This section will be revised if and when the application proceeds to registration.
  • We do not publish an application number or expected date until these can be quoted from the official record.
Independent check: trademark records in India are maintained by the Office of the CGPDTM (IP India).

Understanding our credentials

Six different things — in one honest table.

Businesses often blur these together. We would rather you knew the difference.

Document verification & enquiries

Check us. We'd expect nothing less.

Most of what is on this page sits in public registers you can search yourself. For anything else, a member of the family answers the phone.

Step 01

Search the public register

Use the official MCA, Udyam and FSSAI portals linked in each section above. These are the primary sources; our page only quotes them.

Step 02

Ask for a document

Wholesale partners, institutions and regulators may request copies of the ISO 9001:2015 and ZED certificates for legitimate purposes. Quote the reference number when you write.

Step 03

Ask about a product

Questions about a specific product or batch — origin, testing, storage — belong to that product page. Send us the product name and batch and we will share what we know.

A fair caveat: we share what is public or appropriate to share. Some documents contain personal, financial or commercially confidential information and will not be published or circulated in full. We will tell you plainly if that applies to your request.

Frequently asked questions

Asked, and answered plainly.

What is the CIN of KASHMIRCART?

The Corporate Identity Number of KASHMIR CART PRIVATE LIMITED is U74994JK2013PTC004004, issued by the Registrar of Companies (Jammu & Kashmir) under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. It identifies the incorporated company; it is not a product-quality certificate.

Is KASHMIRCART registered as an MSME?

Yes. The enterprise holds Udyam Registration UDYAM-JK-15-0033453 with the Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, Government of India. Udyam is an enterprise registration — it confirms MSME status, not product standards.

What does the FSSAI licence represent?

FSSAI licence 21025472000232 is a mandatory food-business licence under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. It permits KASHMIRCART to operate as a food business operator and obliges it to follow food-safety regulations. It is not a guarantee of purity for any specific product, and it does not mean every product has been laboratory tested.

Does ISO 9001:2015 certify every product?

No. ISO 9001:2015 is a quality-management-system standard. Certification (certificate IN-GSCERT-2025-11-075) means the organisation's processes have been audited against the standard by a certification body. It does not test, grade or certify individual products and is not the same as a product laboratory report.

What is MSME ZED certification?

MSME Sustainable (ZED — Zero Defect Zero Effect) Certification is a Ministry of MSME programme that assesses an enterprise's quality, safety and environmental practices at Bronze, Silver or Gold level. KASHMIRCART's reference is ZED_01112026_1106973; the level and scope are those stated on the original certificate.

Is KASHMIRCART's trademark registered?

Not yet. The KASHMIRCART trademark application is currently processing with the Trade Marks Registry, India. No registration has been granted, so we do not use the ® symbol or claim registered-trademark rights. Where ™ appears it denotes use in trade only.

How can I verify a company registration?

Visit the Ministry of Corporate Affairs website (mca.gov.in), open MCA Services → Master Data → View Company/LLP Master Data, and enter the CIN. Udyam numbers can be verified at udyamregistration.gov.in, and FSSAI licences at foscos.fssai.gov.in.

Are product laboratory reports the same as company certifications?

No. Company registrations and management-system certifications concern the business entity and its processes. A laboratory report concerns one batch of one product. Where KASHMIRCART tests a batch — for instance saffron for crocin, picrocrocin and safranal — that information belongs to the product page and batch record, and can be requested with your batch number.

From the land of Kashmir, with sincerity

Transparency is part of our promise.

Registrations, licences and certifications tell you who we are and how we work. The product pages, batch records and the people who answer the phone tell you the rest.
