White Category Certificate

DPCC Online Application & Registration

In order to promote Ease of doing Business, CPCB in its revised classification of Industry has grouped Industries with no pollution or minimal pollution under White Category of Industries. 

Industrial Sectors having Pollution Index score incl. & upto 20 has been categorized into White category. The Pollution Index PI of any industrial sector is a number from 0 to 100 and the increasing value of PI denotes the increasing degree of pollution load from the industrial sector.Thus White Category of Industries pertains to those industrial sectors which are practically non-polluting.

There shall be no necessity of obtaining the Consent to Operate for White category of Industries. An intimation to concerned State Pollution Control Board or Pollution Control Committee shall suffice. As per Delhi Pollution Control Committee, an Industry which falls under White Category needs to submit an undertaking and complete the DPCC Online Application and DPCC Registration process. The DPCC Certificate, also known as the white category certificate, is one of the most relaxed conditionality when coming to setting up and running any commercial or industrial plant. This is applicable for non- polluting/least polluting Industries. Industries with Pollution Index Score below 20 are classified as White Category. This is a government initiative for Ease of Doing Business and a big relief especially in Delhi NCR (Noida, Ghaziabad, Faridabad & Gurgaon) and Green Genra can assist you more in the process.
