Single-window approval mechanism

Andhra Pradesh is the first state in the country to have enacted the Industrial Single Window Clearance Act No 17 of 2002. The Act made itcompulsory for new industries to register with the single-window to obtain clearances quickly. It also simplified procedures for getting industrialclearances.

Committees were constituted at district and state levels to communicate to the applicant the status of their clearances. It has set time slots forissuing clearances and incorporated a provision for deemed approval after the expiry of the time limit.

District level committees can clear investments not exceeding US$ 219,442. State level committees can clear those exceeding US$ 219,442. .

Above the district and state level committees is an empowered committee headed by the Chief Secretary of the state Government, who reviewsand monitors disposal of applications. Overall, a State Board under the chairmanship of the Chief Minister oversees the progress of the scheme.

Post effectiveness of The Andhra Pradesh Single Desk Policy 2015, the number of days required for clearance of application has been reduced to21 days. The applications would be cleared at single information technology platform to enhance ease in doing business in the state.

Andhra Pradesh has become the top ranking state as per the ease of doing business ranking in India.
