Restaurants & hotels cheer move that was ‘much awaited'
New Delhi: The restaurant and hotel industry of Delhi was overjoyed when Delhi CM posted on social media that the requirement for Delhi Police Eating House License has been scrapped. Various restaurant bodies welcomed LG and Delhi CM's decision and stressed that this long-awaited reform will offer significant relief and boost to the capital's restaurant and hospitality industry. The move, hailed as a milestone for ease of doing business by industry, is expected to unlock fresh growth and investment in the food and beverage sector. National Restaurant Association of India (NRAI), which had been advocating the removal of this license for over a decade, termed the decision as a progressive step. Sagar Daryani, president of NRAI, said: "This reform will not only save time and resources but also foster a more vibrant, business-friendly environment for both existing and aspiring entrepreneurs in the F&B sector." Highlighting the burdens of the earlier system, Manpreet Singh, treasurer of NRAI, noted that entrepreneurs already have to obtain several approvals—including from DPCC, fire department, MCD/NDMC, FSSAI, and excise department. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 1 Bite Daily On An Empty Stomach Can Transform Your Health Gundry MD Learn More Undo "Despite this, police still required documents like rent agreements and fresh verification every year—even for the same owner running multiple outlets. This duplicative process was time-consuming and burdensome. " Garish Oberoi, chairman of Delhi State Committee and Treasurer of HRANI said: "Many projects ready to open were delayed solely due to this license. Now, time and money won't be wasted, and restaurants won't have to wait to offer full F&B services even after paying excise fees." Pranay Aneja, executive committee Member of FHRAI, agreed, "Every hotelier in Delhi has a big smile today. We've had to run from one department to another for this one license. Now that energy can go into running our businesses." Sandeep Anand Goyle, Delhi Chapter Head of NRAI, said the association had submitted this demand to CM on May 13. "Delhi and West Bengal were the only places where this license still existed. Its removal will reduce hurdles for restaurateurs, attract outside investment, and lead to new projects, more jobs and higher revenue for the state," he said. "Many big chains had stopped coming to Delhi. This decision changes that and the entire industry is enthused," Goyle added.
