Legality of selling Leather BDSM - Sex Products in India

Dear client,
Selling BDSM products like masks, whips, floggers, handcuffs, and ropes is permissible in India, as long as specific legal guidelines are observed. For products made from cow/animal leather, ensure the leather is sourced ethically and not from protected species, complying with the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972, and the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960. Adhere to applicable import/export regulations and environmental laws. For your e-commerce platform, implement age verification to limit access to individuals 18 years and older, clearly outline terms and conditions, and comply with the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, and data protection regulations. Avoid obscene content to comply with Section 292 of the Indian Penal Code and Section 67 of the Information Technology Act, 2000.

Since your products are intended for external use only, you generally do not need medical or hygiene certificates but consider obtaining voluntary certifications for quality assurance. You can market these products under the category of "Sexual Wellness Products" if they emphasize wellness and consensual use. Clearly state on your website that these products are non-returnable and non-refundable due to hygiene reasons, and include a limitation of liability clause advising responsible and consensual use. Hope our prompt support in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
