    Sir,
    Someones intends to purchase an old building , constructed prior to 2000. But the building has no CTE, CTO or EC . Would the new purchaser of the building have to apply for it, or does it not affect him in any manner .

    Hi..
    We have a coal mine both open cast & underground. We have obtained the CTE IN 2015, June. We also got the CTO for Opencast & valid upto 31st March, 2019. Now we are going to get CTO for underground mine. Should we take the CTE again?

    1) Is Consent required for warehouse/part storage activity? If yes, under which category?
    2) If the developer has taken CTE/O under white category – Does the tenant needs to take CTE?
    3) If the developer has taken CTE/O under white category – Can the tenant take CTO under Green category?
    4) If the developer CTE/O under white category says NA against Diesel Generator Sets – Can the tenant or developer install DG set at the time of Operation? Is it allowed?
    5) What is the exempt capacity for DG sets from Consent point of view?

    Does the tenant have the right to ask CTE/CTO from the developer?
    Is the developer obliged to share the CTE/CTO with tenant?
    Does the tenant have to obtain cite/cto again if developer already has it?

    Dear Sir,

    I have a premise for R&D facility with CTO and CFE. Now I am closing down the facility and have submitted the surrender application of CTO and CFE to the PCB. However, as the lease for the premises runs into 2023, can I continue to hold on to the premises without any sort of operation from the said premises whatsoever till 2023 (without the CTO and CFE).

    Thanks & Regards
    Aku

    Hey Team,
    Hope you are doing good.
    I have a query regarding the development of residential/commercial projects.
    If I have to start new construction activity of a residential or a commercial project.
    Do I need to take the MPCB permission before starting my construction activity?
    What kind of permission do I need?
    Are there any particular criteria under which my project comes? Like in the case of EC – The area of the project has to be greater than 20,000 sq. mt. to apply for EC.
    Looking for quick help from your side.

    Is CTO required for warehouses where the only activity is to inward the material from factory and distribute the material to market? We have DG of 250kVA which is run only as a backup power and 98% the power is from main lines. There is no STP in the premises. Around 200 people work / day in the premises.

    The manufacturing plant of a company has delayed commencing its production, thus, the company is looking for an option of job work to a third party, wherein the manufacturing will be done by third party. Thus, the company would raise a GST Invoice on the customer out of this trading activity.

    a. Though the company has not obtained Consent to Operate (CTO) till now, whether the above sale resulting out of trading activity shall be considered as invoice from commercial production or not?
    b. Is trial production allowed before obtaining the Consent to Operate (CTO)? If yes, what is the procedure to dispose of such goods produced out of trial run?
    c. Can an invoice out of trading activity be considered appropriate though the company has not initiated manufacturing activity/ license?

    I have CTE which expired on 25th March 2023.
    I understand that CTE renewal is on FINANCIAL YEAR BASIS

    CTO I will apply in JULY 2023. If i new CTE for 1 year – will i have to pay full year fees for renewal from 25th March 2023 till 31st March 2023. So if i want CTE till JULY 2023 – will i have to apply for 2 years renewal of CTE.
    Kindly confirm.
