Answers

GPCB consent FAQs

What is the difference between CTE and CTO?

Consent to Establish (CTE) is obtained before setting up or expanding a unit, based on the proposed project. Consent to Operate (CTO) is obtained before commencing operations and confirms your pollution control systems meet norms. Most industries need both.

Which GPCB category does my unit fall under?

Units are classified Red, Orange, Green or White based on their pollution potential, which decides the consent process and fees. We assess your activity and capacity and confirm the correct category as part of your quote.

Do you handle the XGN online filing?

Yes. We manage the entire application on GPCB’s XGN portal — document upload, fee calculation and submission — and follow up on any queries until consent is granted.

How long does GPCB consent take?

Timelines depend on category, completeness of documents and GPCB workload. A well-prepared application avoids back-and-forth and moves faster — we give you a realistic estimate once we assess your unit.

Can you also do the required testing?

Yes. Our in-house NABL-accredited lab provides the water, air, noise and waste test reports your consent application needs — so testing and consent are handled by one partner.
