Securing your NOC for groundwater extraction requires an upfront payment of a 90-day advance tariff based on your water demand. This payment serves as a security deposit and will be retained. For existing industries and projects, this tariff applies starting December 24, 2020

The No Objection Certificate (NOC) includes specific terms and conditions, which you are obligated to adhere to fully.

As per the guidelines issued by the Haryana Water Resource Authority, penalty is imposed for violating any condition.
