A Trade Licence is issued by the local municipal body permitting a business to operate at a specific location. It is mandatory for all businesses including shops, warehouses, manufacturing units, hotels and commercial establishments.
Trade Licence is issued by the municipal body and deals with location-based permission to operate. Shop Act Registration falls under the state labour department and relates to employee working conditions. Both are generally required for legal business operation.
Trade Licence processing time varies by municipal body. Generally, it takes 15-30 days after application submission. In some municipalities, it can take up to 45 days depending on the department's processing speed.
Trade Licence is typically issued for one financial year (April to March) and must be renewed annually. The renewal fee is generally lower than the new licence fee.
Operating without a valid Trade Licence can result in penalties ranging from ₹7,500 to ₹26,252 depending on the municipal body. The business may also be sealed for repeated violations.
