Pollution Control Board Consent
Pollution Control Board Consent, for a compliant unit.
We help classify your unit's pollution category correctly and prepare your CTE/CTO applications for the State Pollution Control Board.
What is Pollution Control Board Consent?
Manufacturing and process industries need environmental clearance from the State Pollution Control Board (SPCB) before setting up (Consent to Establish) and before commencing operations (Consent to Operate), under the Water and Air Acts.
The exact requirements and category (broadly, 'Red', 'Orange', 'Green' or 'White' based on pollution potential) depend on the nature and scale of your manufacturing process.
Gurur Consultancy helps identify your unit's pollution category, prepares the CTE and CTO applications, and coordinates supporting documentation such as effluent/emission details.
Why this matters for your business
Who typically needs Pollution Control Board Consent?
Applicability varies by business — here’s who this usually applies to.
- Manufacturing and processing units, particularly those generating effluents, emissions or hazardous waste
- Businesses setting up a new industrial unit (need CTE before construction/installation)
- Businesses about to commence operations at an industrial unit (need CTO before operating)
Eligibility & requirements
- Applicability and category (Red/Orange/Green/White) depend on the specific manufacturing process and its pollution potential, as classified by the SPCB
- Some very low-pollution-potential categories may have simplified or exempted requirements
