General Timeframe for Industrial Land

The typical period required for entitlements and permitting can range from 45 to 180 days, depending on the project’s complexity, location, and government regulations. This includes all approvals necessary to begin construction or business operations.

• Basic permits and registrations: 45 to 60 days
  
• Full approvals for construction or operations: 90 to 180 days
  
• Fast-track zones or industrial parks may shorten the timeline

Key Approvals Required

Buyers must secure various permissions based on land use, utility connections, environmental standards, and factory setup.

• Land use or zoning clearance (if not pre-zoned)
  
• Building plan sanction and development permission
  
• Pollution control and environmental approvals (if applicable)
  
• Power, water, and road access permissions
  
• Factory registration or business licenses

Factors Affecting Timeline

Several factors influence the speed and ease of the entitlement process, and should be assessed during due diligence.

• Whether the land is already zoned for industrial use
  
• Availability of pre-approved layout or government park status
  
• Support from local authorities and clarity of title documents
  
• Sector-specific compliance (e.g., food, pharma, chemicals)

Seller Support Opportunity

Buyers often negotiate for assistance from the seller to expedite permits, especially when land falls within a notified industrial zone or has prior development history.
