For medium to large food businesses, FSSAI issues a State License (turnover ₹12 Lakh–₹20 Crore) or Central License (turnover above ₹20 Crore or multi state/import-export operations) under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006 — obtained after premises inspection and submission of Form B, layout plan, food safety management plan, and water testing report — and must be renewed every 1–5 years to avoid license cancellation. Additionally, all licensed FBOs must file annual returns through the FoSCoS portal — Form D1 (Annual Return) by 31st May for manufacturers, importers, repackers, and processors, and Form D2 (Half-Yearly Return) for businesses dealing in milk and milk products — with a separate return required for each FSSAI license held, and late filing attracting a penalty of ₹100 per day.
⚠️ Late renewal penalty:
₹100 per day from the expiry date until renewal is completed. If the license expires and renewal is not done within 30 days of expiry, the license may be automatically cancelled — requiring a fresh application with full documentation instead of a simple renewal.

A Leave and License Agreement is the most common form of rental contract in India — particularly in Maharashtra — that grants a licensee (tenant) the right to occupy and use a licensor’s (owner’s) property for a defined period without transferring any ownership or leasehold interest. Under Section 55 of the Maharashtra Rent Control Act, 1999, every Leave and License agreement must be registered at the Sub-Registrar’s Office, regardless of its duration. Diwan Groups drafts, stamps, and completes the full registration process for residential and commercial leave and license agreements.
✦ Important (Maharashtra): Registration is mandatory under the Maharashtra Rent Control Act for all tenancies, regardless of duration. Failure to register: landlord may face ₹5,000 fine + up to 3 months imprisonment. Without registration, tenant’s version of terms is legally presumed to be correct in disputes.

Both documents must be executed on appropriate stamp paper and registered at the local Sub-Registrar’s Office to be legally enforceable under the Registration Act, 1908.
