The initial validity period of industrial license has been revised from two years to three years, extendable up to seven years by allowing two extensions of two years each. Earlier, initial validity of Industrial License was for a period of two years with a provision of granting two extensions of two years and one year respectively. The applicant may be granted extension of Industrial License by the concerned Administrative Ministry without referring the application to Licensing Committee.
