But what does reporting the value mean? Does my specification become 0.50? or remains 0.5?
For example 0.53 is in specification or not?

I need clarification. Following the ICH guidelines I read that for impurities with registered Specification below 1.0%, for example 0.5%, I must report the value with two decimal digits.

If your specification maximum is listed as 0.5%, then 0.53% becomes 0.5%; so in specification.
If your specification maximum is listed as 0.50%, then 0.53% is out of specification.
