Factory Licence

Factory Registration and Licence Services in India

A Factory Licence serves as a mandatory approval document issued by the authorities to allow manufacturing and related industrial activities. Under the Factories Act, 1948, every factory in India must comply with the prescribed rules and safety standards before commencing operations. The first step in this process is factory registration, followed by obtaining the factory licence from the respective State Government.

The factory licence ensures that the establishment adheres to occupational safety, health, and welfare standards for workers and complies with all government norms. It is applicable to factories engaged in both hazardous and non-hazardous manufacturing activities.

Procedure for Factory Licence Registration

The process for factory registration in Maharashtra and other Indian states involves:

  1. Application Submission – Filing the required application form to the concerned authority.

  2. Fee Payment – Paying the prescribed government fee.

  3. Corrections (if any) – Making corrections as advised by authorities.

  4. Approval and Issuance – Receiving the factory licence certificate after successful verification.

  5. Renewal of Licence – Renewal can be done by submitting the old certificate and renewal fee before expiry.

  • Purchase or Rental Agreement of Premises

  • List of Directors and General Manager
