Transportation of explosives is an essential factor in construction, mining, demolition, and even manufacture of fireworks, where accuracy and safety are of uttermost importance. Since there is always a risk of harm while handling and transporting such dangerous products, high measures must be set to reduce consequences to the community, possessions, and nature. The handling and transportation of explosives in India is controlled and monitored by Petroleum and explosives safety Organization (PESO). All companies and entities engaged in the transportation of explosives must have a PESO license because of compliance and safety issues. This license lends a guarantee that the companies involved are adhering to all safety best practices, high safety standards, or minimizing the risks of happening on to incidents or environmental nudging.
In order to receive a PESO license, there are many forms to complete, detailed documentation, safety plans and documents proving compliance with the current regulation. Furthermore, there are certain requirements under which vehicles should be designed, employees should be trained and which routes should be taken to transport explosives safely. This page is intended to explore the need for the PESO license, the procedure for obtaining the license, the documents that are needed for the license, as well as considering the compliance regulations that must be adhered to allowing for legal and safe transportation of the explosives.
A PESO license is an essential license needed to store, transport, use, and handle petroleum, explosives, and compressed gasses in India. The organization is under the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Ministry of Commerce and Industry.
Thus, the PESO license covers mandatory requirements for assessing safety standards laid down in the Petroleum Act of 1934, the Explosives Act of 1884, and the Gas Cylinders Rules of 2004. It is compulsory to industries, gas agencies, fuel stations, and even persons who deal in LPG, CNG, petroleum products fireworks, etc.
In order to obtain a license, one is supposed to fill out an application, in which details are entered on PESO’s official site, and these include the type of substance, facility, and measures being taken. When it comes to setup, the application is followed by inspections and approvals to ensure that setup complies with the safety standards meant to prevent risks such as fire, explosion, and harm to the environment.

They've been very helpful in our registration with ICEGATE. It was a small thing with a small amount paid which somehow escalated to a very painful procedure. Never did they say "You've only paid so much. It's too much effort for us.".
Very pleased with their service. Prompt, professional and great communication. Definitely recommend. Special mention for Ms. Razia - she handled our case.
Professional Utilities is fully professional in their work, Rates are too low and genuine. Services and satisfaction are high so I highly recommended Professional Utilities.
They are one of the most genuine and reasonable people. I applied for lmpc certificate through them and they charged me a very nominal amount as compared to what other firms asked .
