Dear Expert
I have seen many Small Scale Manufacuring units every where in cities and towns...
I would like to start a food manufacturing facility (packed food) as SSI unit (with annual turnover less than 5 crore) around Chennai (Tamil Nadu). I have already formed a Pvt Ltd Co. Now can I build this facility in my own land which is approved for domestic construction? What kind of limitation I have to do this? Initially, we might employ less than 10 people and we may use machinaries for mixing and packing various food items. There is no liquid waste, no noise and no smoke in this unit. Many people were saying I won't get approval for this.
I request for your expert opinion and advises on this

This may not the right forum for you to get correct response. You will get more information on HR related areas. Many think just because HR handles Factories Act, such forum can also respond to questions on startups.
1. You need to get MMDA approval for the building Construction speifically mentioning that this will be for commercial and factory purpose
2. You need to get Tamilnadu Pollution Control Board's Consent Order whether your let out effluent or not. It is mandatory
3. You will engaging 10 workers with power and hence need to get license from the Inspetor of Factories
4. You need to get a license from the Local authorities for running a factory
Thanks
