oneM2M Standards

TSDSI's transpositions of the global oneM2M IoT/M2M framework — with India-specific annexures for local deployment contexts.

Partnership

TSDSI & oneM2M

oneM2M is the global standards body for Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications and the Internet of Things (IoT). TSDSI is a founding partner of oneM2M alongside ETSI, TIA, TSDSI, CCSA, ARIB, TTA, and ATIS — participating in global IoT standard-setting since 2012.

TSDSI transpososes oneM2M Releases into Indian national standards, adding India-specific annexures where local regulatory, deployment, or interoperability requirements differ. These standards cover Smart Cities, precision agriculture, industrial IoT, healthcare, and utility monitoring.
