Dear Forum Members,
I am considering opening a petrol pump on a piece of land in Karnataka that has already been converted for commercial use. I seek clarity on whether this commercial conversion suffices or if I need to obtain additional, specific approvals for a petrol pump.
Could you please advise on the following:
1) Is commercial conversion status enough to proceed with establishing a petrol pump, or are there specific approvals or permissions required from state or local authorities apart from NOCs?
2) In the case that specific approvals are necessary for a petrol pump, what are the initial steps I should undertake to comply with the legal requirements in Karnataka?
Any guidance or direction on the appropriate procedures, relevant authorities to contact, or necessary documentation would be immensely helpful.
Thank you for your assistance.
