Along with PESO licesne, u need to get permission from state excise and prohibition dept for storage and handling of ethanol. Kindly refer your state excise and prohibition act.
NOTE: Ethanol is an alcoholic substance, it is consumed in the place of wine by illiterate people after getting ethanol odour while handling.
Due to Intoxication substance, government regulated ethanol in handling & storage.

Hi Members.
This matter is old, but i have a smilar problem
The FAQ page shown above seem to have been deleted.
There is a notification of Aug 2019 which states that Ethanol is a Class A item under petrolieum rules and therefore needs license for transport. My assumption is that if there is a need for license to transport, then there will automatically be license to store.

Therefore, it will always be Class A
