Before commencement of any production or manufacturing of any project, industry or activity requires approval from the pollution control board and it is known as CTO i.e., Consent TO Operate.
Consent to Operate (CTO) Certificate is NOC given by Pollution Control Board of respective states to operate your business after Consent to Establish (CTE) is approved.
Manufacturers are required to follow Consent to Operate (CTO) compliance to ensure their industry is maintaining standards related to the operations. All industries must get this consent to operate.
Consent to Operate needs to be applied to respective state pollution control boards. for e.g. if your company is in Maharashtra then you need to apply for CTO from MPCB i.e., Maharashtra pollution control board. CTO is a recurring process for every 3-5 years and in case of any need for the extension.
Yes, Consent to Establish (CTE) is mandatory for all industries in the entire country. This is required to curb the discharging polluted water to the environment and air pollutants emissions.
Hi,
I have a query, can you please help me on it.
For an Iron Ore mine,
Mining Plan is having a proposal to setup a Benefication plant within in the lease area.
I got the Environment Clearance, Forest Clearance.
I have not establish the Benefication plant as on date. I dont have the right amount of funds currently to setup the plant. I am thinking to setup the plant once the mine is running.
I want to apply for Consent To Operate [CTO].
Will i get a CTO even if i have not setup the plant? or do i need to setup the plant and then apply for CTO.
Mr Subhananda, First of all thank you for your comment.
As per MPCB, one has to apply for consent to establish (CTE) before setup the plant. once you have that you can start setup your plant. after you setup your plant you can apply for consent to operate (CTO). Make sure that you start manufacturing only after you get consent to operate (CTO) from MPCB.
In the compliance report to EC conditions, state that the process is started and going to complete soon. Attach few photos.
Apply for CFO/CTO.
Convince the inspection authority.
Hi,
Pls note that we have cto till 31.03.2016 and in july 2015 we have upgrade our etp plant and apply for cte and get cte for 24 months. but as our regular cto was upto 31.03.2016, so we have applied for trial in feb16 and get trial in feb 16 upto last may2016.
now my question is-
1 can we apply for cte both/hwm before expiry of trial .i.e.upto last may16 ??
2 or we have to apply for cto both/hwm before the expiry of trial.???
that is I am not clear that what we have to apply i.e. cte or cto?????
so pls make it clear.
thanks in anticipation.
Thank you Deepak for your question.
First of all you need to apply for renewal of consent for existing consent to operate, after that you need to apply for consent to operate for existing (upgraded) consent to establish.
Let us know if you have any questions.

Hi, I have not obtained CFE. I am developing 4 acres of land for residential purpose. There is a STP in that. Now my houses are ready to occupy. KSPCB issued notice stating that I should have taken the CFE under Water and Air Act. Kindly advise what should I do?
If we can understand properly, you have completed construction without taking consent from Pollution control board.
In that case you have violated policy of Pollution control board and they may fine you heavily. You will have to contact person (RO or SRO) from Pollution control board and ask for procedure.
Hi,
We have CTE in our hand for our solar pv power plant. Now kindly let me know the documents required to submit at the time of CTO application.

Hi,
If company A has undertaken consent to establish and thereafter, company B purchases the land and factory of Company A, would the Company B require the consent to establish for the said factory?
Thank you for reading article and asking question.
Whenever a company takes consent to establish it is taken for land and factory and not for the company. if company A has already acquired consent to establish and Company B has undertaken company A, in that case you need to submit your original consent alongwith your undertake certificate / Change of owner to amend it in existing consent.
Hope this helps.

Hi Avnish,
Thank you for your comment.
Yes, it is compulsory to get consent for air and water as your company has installed Diesel generator and STP.

Hi! The article is really insightful. If someone has obtained CTE and CTO but have crossed the production limit as mentioned under CTE and CTO pending renewal. What can be the repercussions under this situation?
Dear Jayant,
If someone has already crossed limits mentioned in Consent then it is an offence as per PCB. Request you to get in touch with environmental officer or state pollution control board representative.
Thank you,

For an increase in capacity, I require fresh CTE. My question is – Do I have to get this fresh CTE after I have increased the capacity or before increasing the capacity? If I have increased the capacity and not applied for fresh CTE, what will happen?
Dear Jayant,
For any increase in production capacity, you need to get CtE for expansion in production capacity. If not so, the SPCB has right to issue SCN and may ask you to stop work or closure unit as conditions in consent may be violated. So, request not to take any further steps before CtoE.
Thanks,

Sir, Our consent to operate valid till 28.02.2022. We had applied for renewal in December-2021. Still the renewed CTO has not been issued to us. Shall we continue production or stop production till we obtain valid renewed CTO?
Dear Rajiv,
You can proceed with your production as per your production limits stipulated under CtoO. But, request you please get in touch with local RO, SPCB to resolve any technical issue.
Thank You,
Team PPS
