No factory licence required now for setting up units at DSIIDC

South Delhi civic body SDMC has decided to abolish the provision that requires entrepreneurs to take factory licence for setting up industrial units in DSIIDC estates area.
South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) has taken a decision in-principle in this regard as it is committed to provide concession to the entrepreneurs and pave way for them to set up industrial units, SDMC mayor Shyam Sharma said in a statement today.
"An information in the form of recommendation has been sent to the city government and the Union government for favour of issuance of a notification," he said.
After implementation of this decision, it will not be binding on the industrialists to obtain factory licence from the SDMC in Delhi State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation(DSIIDC), he said.

"The concession has been granted under the concept of Ease of Doing Business being promoted by the Prime Minister. It will benefit a large number of persons willing to set up factories in SDMC localities and will provide a substantial relief to them as far as the procedural requirements are concerned for obtaining such licence," he added.
