FOR · INDIAN PROGRAMMES SERVING GLOBAL OEMs

India-ready, globally aligned — AIS 189 and AIS 190 on the same evidence chain you need worldwide

Indian vehicle programmes increasingly serve both domestic approvals and global Type Approval markets. KAVACH maps ISO/SAE 21434 engineering outputs to AIS 189 / AIS 190 readiness without rebuilding the evidence chain.

WHO THIS PAGE IS FOR

This page is for engineering teams operating in India whose vehicle programmes face both AIS 189 / AIS 190 readiness in India and UNECE R155 / R156 expectations from global export markets.

OWNS DECISIONS FOR

What lands on this desk

  • AIS 189 CSMS readiness
  • AIS 190 Type Approval evidence
  • UNECE R155 / R156 alignment for export programmes
  • Supplier coordination across Indian and global tiers

BUYER PAIN

Where the friction shows up

  • AIS 189 / AIS 190 interpretation and audit cadence are still settling — methods diverge across teams

  • Programmes built for global Type Approval risk reworking evidence for Indian readiness, and vice versa

  • Supplier coordination across Indian and global tiers compounds the Cybersecurity Interface Agreement burden

  • Indian and export-market assessment language differs, and translation work happens late in the programme

  • Documented governance often lags real engineering practice — audit-readiness gaps appear when assessors visit

WHAT YOU NEED TO PROVE

The evidence chain stakeholders expect

  • 01

    AIS 189 organisational Cybersecurity Management System readiness

  • 02

    AIS 190 vehicle-level cybersecurity assessment evidence for Indian Type Approval

  • 03

    Engineering evidence aligned with UNECE R155 / R156 expectations for export programmes

  • 04

    Supplier-side cybersecurity evidence across Indian and global suppliers

  • 05

    Software-update governance for AIS 190 and UNECE R156

HOW AGNILE HELPS

Engineering teams who do this work day-to-day

  • India-based engineering team that has worked through AIS readiness and UNECE-aligned programmes in parallel

  • AIS readiness sprints — gap reviews against AIS 189 organisational CSMS and AIS 190 vehicle-level expectations

  • One engineering evidence chain methodology that serves Indian approvals and export-market Type Approval

  • Supplier coordination support across Indian and global tiers

HOW KAVACH SUPPORTS THE WORKFLOW

The workspace built around this evidence chain

  • KAVACH produces one engineering evidence chain mapped to ISO/SAE 21434 — the same work products serve AIS 189 / 190 readiness and UNECE R155 / R156 expectations

  • Architecture-aware TARA aligned with ISO/SAE 21434 Clause 15 — supports the vehicle-level threat coverage AIS 190 expects

  • Software-update evidence linked to cybersecurity evidence — supports UNECE R156 and AIS 190 alignment

  • On-premise or customer-dedicated EU VPC deployment keeps sensitive programme data inside the customer-defined boundary

  • Engineer-in-the-loop review at every stage; AI-assisted acceleration can be configured or disabled per programme
