certificate for export of hazardous waste

Hazardous wastes are often disposed directly into the environment posing health and environment risk. Control of dumping is thus key issue for any Government while designing and implementing regulations.

Environmental Clearance

The environmental clearance process is one of the most important compliance of any business that directly or indirectly affects the environment against environmental laws. Through this process, it ensures that development activities are not causing harm to the environment. The project’s potential environmental impact has been evaluated through this process. After evaluation suggestions have been given regarding what measures to be taken to mitigate or manage those impacts. The current blog will make clear many things regarding the clearance process. These things include but are not limited to the legal framework, documents required, the process of obtaining clearance, which projects need this clearance, etc.  Environment Impact Notification The environmental clearance process in India is governed by the Environmental Impact Notification, 2006 which was issued under the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986. Notification of 2006 was amended in 2018 and it now covers a wider range of projects that can potentially cause significant environmental impacts. It includes almost all the necessary things one needs to know about the environmental clearance process, hereinafter will also refer it as the EC Process Which Projects Requires Environmental Clearance? In the notification of 2006, which is popularly known as environment impact notification, a list of projects that require environment clearance has been given. Broadly that list has been divided into two categories. Those categories are “category A” which includes those projects that have the potential to cause significant environmental impacts and require clearance from the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change. “Category B” includes those projects that have the potential to cause moderate environmental impacts and require clearance from the State Environmental Impact Assessment Authority (SEIAA) in the case of states and the Union Territory Environmental Impact Assessment Authority (UTSEIAA) in case of union territory. Large businesses like mining, thermal power plants, cement plants, chemical industries, airports, etc. are included on the list of Category A projects. On the other side, category B includes smaller industries such as foundries, automobile repair shops, hotels, etc. The process consists of following steps: Screening The first step is determining whether the project requires environmental clearance or not. The process of determining is to check or refer to the list of projects specified in the Environment Impact Assessment Notification, 2006. Scoping The next stage after screening is to create a scoping report. The project’s possible environmental effects are described in this study. It also makes suggestions for how to lessen or control such effects. Terms of Reference  The Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change or State Environmental Impact Assessment Authority or Union Territory Environmental Impact Assessment Authority will then issue the project’s Terms of Reference (ToR). The ToR outlines the information that must be gathered, the research that must be done, and the analysis that must be done. Public Hearing for EC The next stage is to host a public meeting or consultation to get the opinions and worries of the neighborhood, NGOs, and other stakeholders. Public consultation plays a vital role as any kind of harm directly or indirectly violates their right to live in a clean environment. Environmental Impact Assessment Report   Making an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report is the following stage. It evaluates the project’s potential environmental effects and makes recommendations for how to lessen or control those effects. It is the EC process’s most important document. Appraisal  The Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change or State Environmental Impact Assessment Authority, or Union Territory Environmental Impact Assessment Authority will then appraise the environmental impact assessment report and decide whether to grant or reject environmental clearance for a particular project. Post Environment Clearance Monitoring The project’s proponent is required to conduct post-clearance monitoring if EC is granted. Making sure that the project is carried out in accordance with the requirements outlined in the clearance. Violation of the conditions of the clearance has its own consequences. Problems While Obtaining Environment Clearance The main problem regarding obtaining EC is public hearings. The public’s involvement in India’s EC process is rather limited. The public is only consulted extremely late when the environmental impact assessment report is already prepared and it is ready for approval. That makes it impossible for the environmental impact assessment to address the public’s concerns. During the public hearing stage of the environment clearance procedure, the environment impact assessment report is unavailable in local languages. This makes many people disable to understand the report properly. Sometimes, the public’s concerns go unheard as well. The second problem is corruption, which occasionally leads to reports on environmental impact assessments that are not adequate. When agencies publish contradictory and out-of-date information by taking content from other sources, there is no punishment for this. There may be more clarity in the definitions of screening and scoping. To produce adequate EIA reports, project proponents or agencies must take into account the area’s actual and factual circumstances. In order to conserve money and further their other goals, proponents occasionally conducted their own EIAs rather than hiring international experts. EIA reports are therefore of poor quality. FAQs What is Environmental Clearance (EC)? Environmental Clearance is a process that evaluates the potential environmental impacts of proposed projects or activities and ensures that necessary mitigation measures are in place to minimize adverse effects. What types of projects require Environmental Clearance? Projects that have the potential to significantly impact the environment such as industrial projects, infrastructure development, mining activities, thermal power plants, etc., typically require Environmental Clearance. Who issues Environmental Clearance? Environmental Clearance is issued by the government’s environmental regulatory authority or an agency designated for this purpose. The specific body responsible for issuing EC varies by country.

GST ARN Status – Track GST Application Status With ARN 

GST Registration is the process by which a business becomes registered under India’s Goods and Services Tax (GST) system. Once registered, the business is legally recognized as a supplier of goods or services and must collect GST on sales and remit it to the government. This registration is essential for businesses whose turnover exceeds a specific threshold. To obtain GST registration, the applicant must apply to the GST authorities. Upon successful registration, the business is assigned a unique identification number, known as the GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number), which is crucial for all GST-related transactions and compliance activities. What is ARN?  The Application Reference Number (ARN) is a 15-digit code assigned to your GST registration application. It serves as an identifier for tracking the progress of your application and is crucial for the GST status check process. Once you submit your GST registration application, the GST portal automatically generates the ARN. This number allows you to monitor the status of your application at various stages, from submission to approval / rejection. The ARN facilitates coordination between you and the GST authorities. Hence, the GST ARN tracking process should be taken seriously. What are the Various Types of GST ARN Statuses? 1. Pending for Processing- This status indicates that your GST registration application has been successfully submitted and is awaiting processing by the GST authorities. 2. Under Verification- Your application is under review at this stage, and the GST authorities are verifying the information provided. This phase involves an examination of all submitted documents and details. 3. Approved- When the GST authorities confirm the accuracy of the details and their compliance with GST regulations, the application status changes to “Approved.” 4. Rejected- The application could be rejected if the authorities find discrepancies, incomplete details or violations of GST rules. Reasons for rejection will be provided so you can address any issues and reapply if needed. 5. Cancelled- In some GST registration cancellation cases, approved applications may be cancelled later due to non-compliance or violations of GST regulations. 6. Pending for Clarification- When the authorities need additional information or clarification, the application status will show as “Pending for Clarification.” You must provide the required details for further processing. 7. Provisional- Under some circumstances, provisional registration may be granted by the authorities to allow you to start business activities while verification is ongoing. 8. Migrated- Businesses registered under tax systems (such as VAT and Service Tax) will have their status changed to “Migrated” when transitioning to the GST regime. Their registration has been smoothly transitioned to the GST platform, confirming its migration. Decoding the GST ARN The ARN is a unique alphanumeric code, typically 15 characters long, incorporating both letters and numbers. The composition of this number is thoughtfully structured: it starts with two alphabetical characters, followed by the Indian state code represented in two numerical digits. Subsequently, four characters signify the month and year of registration. The sequence culminates in a six-digit number, the last digit of which serves as a checksum. A typical ARN, for example, will have the following format: AA 01 04 30 000000 1 ARN Number Generation Process Submission of GST Registration Application: An applicant begins by submitting their GST registration application through the GST Portal. This is typically done by filling out the necessary details and uploading the documents on the portal. Completion of Application: Once the application is completed and all mandatory fields are filled, the applicant submits it online. Automatic Generation of ARN: Upon successful submission of the GST registration application, the GST Portal automatically generates an Application Reference Number (ARN). Receipt of ARN: The ARN is then communicated to the applicant, usually via email, or it can be noted directly from the GST Portal immediately after submission. Use of ARN for Tracking: This ARN number is crucial as it allows the applicant to track the status of their GST registration application on the GST Portal until the final GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number) and GST Certificate are issued by the government. How to Check GST Registration Status for First-Time Applicants? STEP 1: Go to the website > Click the ‘Services’ > ‘Track Application Status’ option. STEP 2: Select the ‘Registration’ option from the drop-down list. STEP 3: The Registration Module will open and prompts you to enter the ARN or SRN. Once entered, click on ‘Search’. STEP 4: The screen will display a detailed report titled ‘Detailed Status: Show Case History of New Registration Application’. This screen provides information about the stage at which your registration application is pending. There are seven stages through which your application for GST registration has to pass through. Each completed stage is highlighted in green and the pending stages are highlighted in grey. ARN Number Considered So Important? Proof of Application Submission: The ARN number is generated immediately after submitting a GST registration application, proving that the application has been successfully submitted to the GST portal. Tracking Application Status: It enables businesses and individuals to track the real-time status of their GST registration application. This feature is useful to keep abreast of the application’s progress and required actions. Interim Business Identifier: Until the GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number) is issued, the ARN number acts as an interim identifier for business transactions. This is crucial for businesses to continue their operations without hindrance during the registration process. Facilitating Communication with Tax Authorities: The ARN number is a key reference in communications with tax authorities regarding the GST registration. It helps in the efficient and quick resolution of queries or issues. Validation of Application Details: The ARN references the details submitted in the GST registration application, ensuring that the information is processed and validated correctly by the tax authorities. Essential for Further GST Procedures: For any subsequent modifications, updates, or inquiries about GST registration, the ARN number is often required. It is integral to the continuation of various GST-related procedures. FAQs Who can apply for an ARN? Any individual, business or organisation that needs to register for GST can apply for an ARN. This includes sole proprietorships, partnerships, companies and
