"Trusted for TLS" means the store includes the root with the server-authentication trust bit (Mozilla "Websites", Apple serverAuth, Microsoft Server Authentication EKU). Microsoft "NotBefore" means only certificates issued before a cutoff date are still trusted. "Constrained" means the store applies extra restrictions.

Intermediate CAs issued by this root
The CCADB lists 1 intermediate CA certificates signed directly by CCA India 2022 SPL: 1 currently valid, 0 expired and 0 revoked (revoked includes those whose parent was revoked).
Showing 1 of 1: valid certificates first, newest first. Each name links to its crt.sh entry by SHA-256; an arrow marks a cross-certificate for another root on this site.
| Intermediate | Operated by | Expires | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| IDRBT CA SPL 2022-1 | Government of India, Ministry of Communications & Information Technology, Controller of Certifying Authorities (CCA) | 2035-01-08 | Valid |
Cross-signed versions
No certificate in the CCADB has the same subject and public key as CCA India 2022 SPL with a different issuer, so a client has to carry CCA India 2022 SPL itself in its root store to trust it.
CRL and OCSP addresses
In the root certificate
CCA India 2022 SPL itself contains no CRL Distribution Points and no OCSP (Authority Information Access) extension. That is normal for a root: clients trust it directly and do not check its own revocation status.

What happens when it expires
CCA India 2022 SPL is valid until 2042-09-20, about 15.9 years after this data snapshot (2026-11-10). From that day, browsers and operating systems that check trust-anchor expiry stop accepting chains that end at this root, so any certificate that can only chain to it fails validation. Android is a known exception: it does not enforce the expiry date of trust anchors.
Check whether your device trusts it
Each platform keeps its own root store. The commands below look up CCA India 2022 SPL by common name (CCA India 2022 SPL) or fingerprint. The store status in each heading comes from the CCADB snapshot; your device can differ if it is out of date or managed by an administrator.
macOS (Apple store: Not included)
Search the system roots keychain by common name. -Z prints the SHA-256 hash, which must match the fingerprint on the last line.
security find-certificate -a -c "CCA India 2022 SPL" -Z \
/System/Library/Keychains/SystemRootCertificates.keychain | grep "SHA-256"
# SHA-256 hash: B724689B79B2EF9421EF8F5CC733EB093851B170EE715177005A09F226D8C91A
Windows (Microsoft store: Included · Trusted for TLS)
Windows identifies roots by SHA-1 thumbprint. It installs third-party roots on demand through Automatic Root Certificates Update, so "not found" can also mean the root has not been needed yet; certutil -generateSSTFromWU roots.sst downloads Microsoft's full list.
certutil -verifystore Root 9152D077FEF058914009BB4C0E42A710A38238AF
Linux (ca-certificates follows Mozilla: Not included)
Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and RHEL build their ca-certificates package from Mozilla's root store. Use trust list on p11-kit systems, or search the PEM bundle on Debian and Ubuntu.
# Fedora / RHEL / Arch (p11-kit)
trust list --filter=ca-anchors | grep -iF -A2 "CCA India 2022 SPL"
# Debian / Ubuntu (ca-certificates)
openssl crl2pkcs7 -nocrl -certfile /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt \
| openssl pkcs7 -print_certs -noout | grep -iF "CCA India 2022 SPL"
Java
Java ships its own cacerts keystore; JDK 9 and later accept -cacerts and the default store password is changeit. Search for the SHA-256 fingerprint in colon form.
keytool -list -cacerts -storepass changeit | grep -i "B7:24:68:9B:79:B2:EF:94:21:EF:8F:5C:C7:33:EB:09:38:51:B1:70:EE:71:51:77:00:5A:09:F2:26:D8:C9:1A"
Android
Android's system store is maintained by Google separately from the four CCADB stores above. Open Settings → Security & privacy → More security settings → Encryption & credentials → Trusted credentials → System (menu names vary by vendor and version) and look for India PKI → CCA India 2022 SPL.
Which root does my site chain to?
List the chain your server sends and compare the last issuer with this root; the fingerprint check confirms a local copy.
# show subject (s:) and issuer (i:) of every certificate the server sends
openssl s_client -connect example.com:443 -servername example.com -showcerts </dev/null 2>/dev/null \
| grep -E '^ *[0-9]+ s:|^ *i:'
# subject and SHA-256 fingerprint of the downloaded PEM file
openssl x509 -in cca-india-2022-spl.pem -noout -subject -fingerprint -sha256
# sha256 Fingerprint=B7:24:68:9B:79:B2:EF:94:21:EF:8F:5C:C7:33:EB:09:38:51:B1:70:EE:71:51:77:00:5A:09:F2:26:D8:C9:1A
