Taking a step forward in easing the hospitality business, which has also taken a big hit in the pandemic, the Maharashtra government's tourism department has reduced the number of permits needed to 10 instead of the 70 the promoter was earlier asked to procure, before starting an establishment.

Other than the 10 licences/permissions to be given by the government through a 'one-window online system,' the interested promoters will have to submit nine self declarations. The state cabinet approved the proposal pushed forth by tourism minister Aaditya Thackeray on Wednesday.
"The c will grow and create jobs because of the ease of licensing. Investment will increase," said a note from the chief minister's office, adding that the tourism department will start a one-window online system to receive applications and issue the permits/licences sought.
The permits/licences/no-objection certificates will be valid for 5 years from the day they were issued. However, the 5-year term will not apply where the laws decide the validity period, which could be five years or less.
