The Pollution Index (PI) of any industry sector is a number ranging from 0 to 100, with a higher value indicating a higher level of pollution load from the industrial sector.
The following are the given categories:
Environmental Clearance (EC) is required for the following projects under the provisions of the EIA-2006 notification under the TSPCB. An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is a process where the unit undergoes the process of assessing the potential environmental effects of a project or development while also taking into account related socio-economic, cultural, and human health effects, both positive and negative. EIA is a tool used to evaluate a project’s potential effects on the environment, economy, and society. This is used to foresee the environmental effects of a project even in the pre-planning stage, allowing for the reduction of the negative effects.
Four stages in the Environmental Clearance process are:
If any Industrial Estate Complex, Export Processing Zone, Special Economic Zone, Biotech Parks, or Leather Complex with homogeneous types of industries, or those Industrial Estate with a pre-defined set of activities (not necessarily homogeneous), obtain prior environmental clearance, then individual industries, including proposed industrial housing will not be required to take the preceding environmental clearance. as long as the estates or complexes terms and conditions are followed, this is possible.
In conclusion, CPCB guidelines are established to prevent and control the pollution, and to ensure that these guidelines are followed in each state, State boards have been formed and TSPCB is also part of it. Following its obligation, TSPCB ensures to protect the environment by controlling and preventing the pollution released by the establishments. TSPCB also issued CFE and CFO certificates to industries, they categorized the industries into red, orange, green, and white categories for regulation. They provide advice to the state government on pollution prevention and control measures. So if you want to have smooth operations, industries need to obtain clearances from TSPCB.

The Telangana State Pollution Control Board (TSPCB) is established by the government of Telangana to protect the environment and prevent pollution in the state. It is in charge of managing hazardous waste as well as keeping an eye on and regulating pollution of the air, water, and land.
The TSPCB has classified industrial industries into four categories: A, B, C, and H.
Industries classified as Category A are those that need little monitoring and have little effect on the environment.
Industries in Category B are those that need to be regularly monitored because they have an influence on the environment.
Category C are those industries that have a significant environmental impact and require frequent monitoring.
Category H are the industries that are highly polluting and require special attention from the TSPCB
One of the industry groups that the TSPCB regulates is the H-category. These industries are regarded as being extremely polluting and need special consideration.
The TSPCB consent certificate is good for five years. If the industrial unit wants to renew the certificate, it must apply.

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 .
