Compliance domain

The licence conditions nobody reads after the licence is granted

Most Indian businesses operate under licences, authorisations or registrations with conditions attached — factory licence, drug licence, FSSAI licence, telecom authorisation, RBI registration, RERA project registration. The conditions are binding obligations, they are site-specific, and they expire.

What the domain contains

The obligation groups we maintain

Each of these decomposes into individual obligations with an actor, an action, a trigger and a deadline, cited to the section or rule it comes from.

Licence and registration inventory

A complete register of every licence held, per site and per activity, with issuing authority, validity, renewal lead time and the named holder.

Condition tracking

The specific conditions written into each licence, extracted and treated as obligations rather than left in the certificate PDF.

Renewal management

Renewal windows that vary from thirty days to twelve months before expiry, with application lead times that regularly exceed the window.

Change intimation

Notification of change in premises, capacity, product, directors or authorised signatory — usually within a fixed number of days.

Inspection readiness

Documents, registers and displays required to be maintained at the licensed premises and produced on demand.

Periodic returns under the licence

Production returns, sales returns and utilisation statements attached to specific licence types.

Why it goes wrong

The failure modes we see most often

01

Nobody owns the licence register

Licences are obtained by whoever set up the site, filed, and forgotten. The first complete inventory a company builds usually surfaces expired licences it has been operating under.

02

Renewal lead time exceeds the renewal window

Several licences allow application only within ninety days of expiry, while the authority takes longer than that to process. Planning has to start before the window opens.

03

Conditions are unique per licence

Two plants making the same product under the same rules can hold consents with materially different conditions, because different officers issued them.

Across industries

This domain does not care what you manufacture

Domain obligations apply by activity, headcount, turnover and location — not by sector code. What changes between industries is how much of the domain lands on you, and which sectoral rules stack on top.
