How to obtain DPCC Consent

DPCC

The DPCC consent is required by the polluting industries set up in the NCR. DPCC (Delhi Pollution Control Committee) is an independent governing body that was instituted by the Delhi government under the administration of the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB). This body was established on 1st June 1991. Every power and function of CPCB has been transferred to DPCC. This organization was created to spread awareness about sustainable development that also guarantees an improvement in the "environment quality" of the NCR.

These industries cannot obtain the certificate, as these are not permitted to set up in the NCR. Including this, all the industries falling under the White category should obtain consent as well. This is because these industries are technically non-polluting, having a pollution index of 0-20. These can be set up without consent in the NCR.
