About Rico Solutions India Private Limited

What is a Pollution License?

A Pollution License—commonly referred to as Consent to Establish (CTE) and Consent to Operate (CTO)—is a mandatory clearance that industries must obtain to initiate or continue operations that generate emissions, discharge effluents, or handle hazardous substances. These licenses are issued by respective State Pollution Control Boards under the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974 and the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981.

Industries are categorized based on pollution potential—Red, Orange, Green, and White categories—and licensing requirements vary accordingly. Rico Solutions helps industries identify their correct category and obtain the appropriate consents with complete legal and technical support.

Our Core Services

1. Consent to Establish (CTE)

Before any construction or industrial activity begins, a business must obtain a Consent to Establish from the relevant SPCB. Rico Solutions assists with:

• Project feasibility assessment
• Environmental impact documentation
• Preparation and submission of CTE application
• Coordination with pollution control officials for inspections
• Compliance with conditions and follow-up until approval

2. Consent to Operate (CTO)

Once the infrastructure is in place, businesses must apply for a Consent to Operate to begin functioning legally. Rico Solutions provides:

• Evaluation of installed pollution control equipment
• Air, water, and noise emission data analysis
• Submission of CTO application
• Liaising with authorities for inspections
• Timely renewals and amendments when required

3. Hazardous Waste Management Authorization

Industries handling hazardous waste require authorization under the Hazardous and Other Wastes (Management and Transboundary Movement) Rules, 2016. We offer:

• Waste characterization and inventory preparation
• Application filing and documentation
• Approval liaison with SPCBs

4. Environmental Compliance Audits
