What are the statutory compliances for setting up a new security company?
What all licences are required and where do I get these from?

It is an state regulated business(as civil security is under state domain,so you see police of every state) hence you should check with laws in your state.
D.M's office of your District may be a right place to enquire about.

For Magharashtra, you need to contact local lawyer.
Civic Rules differs from state to state.
