Centre planning to bring all the states on National Single Window System by March 2023

New Delhi: The Centre is planning to bring on board all the states that are yet to integrate with National Single Window System (NSWS) by March next year, the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) said on Tuesday (Sept 6).

National Single Window System seeks to be one-stop digital platform to obtain all requisite central and state approvals required to start business operations.

It started working with its first registration in September 2021.

Currently, the portal hosts applications for approvals from 21 Central departments and 16 state governments.

NSWS has so far received over 30,000 applications, of which nearly 13,764 have been granted.

The single window for approvals has been created with the aim to promote "Ease of Doing Business" by providing support to investors, including pre-investment advisory, information related to land banks, and facilitation of clearances at the Centre and state levels.

It has been envisioned as a one-stop shop for taking all the regulatory approvals and services in the country.

It allows online filing and tracking of all applications and clearances, thereby helping investors to obtain clearances from different stakeholders without visiting different government offices.

"Currently, 24 of the 32 ministries and departments have onboarded the system and others are in the process. 181 out of total 368 services identified as relevant, have been onboarded. At the same time, 16 states/ UTs out of 36 have also onboarded the system," Additional Secretary in Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) Sumita Dawra was quoted as saying by the media.

Goa Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Himachal Pradesh, Odisha, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Punjab and the latest entrant, Nagaland, have signed up for the National Single Window.

Haryana, Jharkhand, Arunachal Pradesh, Tripura and the union territory of Andaman and Nicobar are expected to join the National Single Window this month while Rajasthan, Sikkim and the union territories of Chandigarh and Dadar & Nagar Haveli & Daman & Diu will join the system by December, according to the department.

Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir is already part of the system.

Kerala, West Bengal, Assam, Chhattisgarh, Manipur, Meghalaya and the union territories of Delhi, Ladakh and Lakshadweep will come on board by March 2023, DPIIT added.

It aims to onboard as many as  368 approvals from 32 central departments and already processes 180 central approvals from 24 central departments.
