Location Clearance Certificate

What is certificate compliance

There are a number of certificates required to be obtained from state/ central government authorities by the new start-up companies to initiate their business. Location clearance certificate is one such certificate which has to be obtained from state government. It is a certificate which verifies that the proposed site under construction or already in existence follows the existing land use plan of the particular city/place.

In many a situations, plots are allotted by industrial development corporations in industrial areas of various states, acquiring location clearance certificates becomes mandatory in such cases. A couple of compliance requirements need to be accomplished for industries depending upon the type of industry, product to be manufactured, location of the unit, these include state specific compliance by environment and forest ministry, pollution compliance, zone compliance by town planning authority, coastal regulation zone compliance and so on. Based on the compliances, the concerned authority from state / central government will issue a No Objection Certificate (NOC).

Also there are technical advisors who suggest whether the available land is fit for use by any industry. To be precise, locational clearance is required by a new industry when it is to be set up and in the event of an existing industry it is required when there is any change in the activity of the industry or in case of expansion or any new addition of any activity.
