"Obtain critical licenses and approvals without delay. Comply with sector-specific regulations to enable uninterrupted business operations."
Incorporation provides your business with a legal identity, but licensing and industry-specific approvals grant you the legal right to operate in your chosen sector. This phase is crucial for ensuring full regulatory compliance and avoiding potential shutdowns or hefty fines. At TCC-India Consulting, we act as your regulatory bridge, managing the complex process of securing permits ranging from Trade Licenses and FSSAI to RERA and RBI/SEBI approvals. We identify all required central, state, and local body clearances specific to your industry, ensuring your business is not just legal, but operationally compliant and future-proof from the outset.
Licensing and industry-specific approvals are mandatory permits, certifications, or registrations issued by various governmental or regulatory bodies that authorize a business to conduct specific activities within a regulated industry or jurisdiction. They are distinct from basic tax registrations (like GST or PAN) and include:
| Type of Approval | Sector / Scope | Example Approvals Managed by TCC-India |
|---|---|---|
| Trade & Commercial Licenses | Required for physical premises and commercial activities at the local level. | Shops & Establishment License, Trade License (issued by Municipal Corporations / Panchayats). |
| Financial Sector Approvals | Required for entities dealing with money, credit, lending, or investments. | RBI License (Non-Banking Financial Company – NBFC), SEBI Registration (Investment Advisers, Mutual Fund Distributors). |
| Food & Beverage (F&B) | Mandatory for businesses involved in manufacturing, processing, storage, or distribution of food products. | FSSAI License (Food Safety and Standards Authority of India). |
| Real Estate & Housing | Required for real estate developers, promoters, and property agents. | RERA Registration (Real Estate Regulatory Authority). |
| Manufacturing & Environment | Required for factories and businesses having environmental impact or emissions. | Factory License, Pollution Control Board (PCB) Consent to Establish (CTE) / Consent to Operate (CTO). |
