PSARA License Registration in Pune: Eligibility, Army Discharge Book, Controlling Authority & Portal Filing

Dedicated Guide to New PSARA License Registration in Pune

Establishing a new private security guard company in Pune requires strict alignment with Section 6, 7, and 9 of the PSARA Act. The business must be incorporated as an Indian entity—such as a Private Limited Company, One Person Company, LLP, or Registered Partnership Firm. Foreign direct investment (FDI) is capped at 49% through the government approval route, and the principal management must be held exclusively by Indian citizens.

Applicants must not have been convicted of any offense involving moral turpitude, and priority/preference is statutory given to ex-servicemen from the Indian Armed Forces, Paramilitary forces, or State Police departments. At KOKJAGUAR Consultancy, we manage the complete digital application process on the central PSARA portal (psara.gov.in) and coordinate state-level clearances.
